    She’s packing in with Talksport’s Breakfast show although I’m sure she’ll continue with her freelance stuff.
    I think she is very good in terms of …. everything really.
    She’s very knowledgeable and professional in the way she deals with phone-ins and she’s very attractive and hard working.

    Her “ leaving speech “ was on YouTube last Thursday and it’s well worth watching ( along with Ally and Gabby )

    She’s replacing Jake Humphrey at BT by the sounds of it.

    Yes though its not going to be BT sport anymore but TNT sports - one of those rare rebrands where its unlikely to make the end product worse
    Laura Woods for Jake Humprey is a good start

    I’d much rather her be on the tele than radio anyway.

    Lv her stuff and was listening when she made the announcement and subsequent speech. good banter with the lads especially Ally but very natural and easy. gives that feeling she's talking round the table avin a few beers and relaxing..onward and upward..

    I agree, her and Ally are great. Cant stand listening to Agbonlahor though. Love when he criticises players for 'being lazy' as though he was some sort of cart horse in his playing days

    It was Laura’s final day on Talksport yesterday morning and there was an emotional send off on YouTube which is well worth watching.
    She’ll be sadly missed on Talksport but she’ll still be “about”.
    Laura, we love you
