About The Author
Mark Chapman
Mark Chapman has been a professional(ish) broadcaster since 1996. He worked as a continuity announcer and cricket report (though not at the same time) before joining Radio 1. After a decade presenting the station’s sport and cack-handedly deejaying its weekend shows, he joined BBC Radio 5 Live. Now a fully-fledged grown-up, he is the main presenter of 5Live Sport as well as the Monday Night Club. Thanks to the wonders of make-up, he is allowed on television to present Match of the Day 2, as well as the BBC’s Olympics, Rugby League and NFL coverage.
He lives in Cheshire with his wife, son and two daughters.
