- Paul Boardman
Paul Boardman (born
6 November 1967 ,Liverpool ,England ) joined the Sky Sports News team as a presenter in June 2001 and also hosts the football phone-in show "You're on Sky Sports ". After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of Maryland, Boardman signed a professional contract with Plymouth Argyle and made an immediate impact, scoring on his league debut against Bournemouth.Injury brought a premature end to Boardman's career at Home Park after just two and a half years, and he turned his attention to the comedy circuit, spending eight years doing stand-up. Before Boardman joined Sky, he presented a programme on satellite tv channel
Men and Motors called "Boobs".To date, the highlight of Boardman's time in the
Sky Sports News studio was interviewing Dutch legendJohan Cruyff , and he would fulfil a huge ambition if he had the chance to interview boxing legend,Muhammad Ali . Boardman still plays the odd game of 5-a-side and remains a football lover and massive fan of Liverpool.He is the son of comedian
Stan Boardman and twin brother of television presenterAndrea Boardman .Source
