Setanta names football line-up- 19 Aug 2008 00:00:00

Setanta Sports has unveiled its presenting team for its debut coverage of the England football team’s 2010 World Cup qualifying games.

Former England manager Terry Venables and Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp are the big names in the line-up joining Angus Scott and former England and Liverpool winger Steve McManaman in the Setanta studio. Jon Champion and Ex-England footballer Chris Waddle complete the on-air team as commentators.

Setanta will broadcast exclusive live coverage of England's friendly against Czech Republic on Wednesday and the 2010 World Cup qualifying fixtures against Andorra, Croatia and Belarus.

Trevor East, Setanta's director of sport, said Venables and Redknapp were the best English managers to comment on the national side and were a coup for Setanta.
