Love Sport Radio has been tweeting details of its upcoming launch, including details of the new schedule.
Love Sport, which started life as CitiSport along with its pending sister station, CitiTalk, has changed its name. It will broadcast on Spectrum’s old 558AM frequency and DAB.
The tweets so far say the station unofficially launched on Monday 5th March at 6am but will launch ‘for real’ on Monday 19th March.
The schedule will include Ian Stone on breakfast each weekday from 6am, and Brian Moore on the afternoon drive show from 4pm. Cristo Foufas is listed as host of the 10am till 1pm show whilst Kevin O’Sullivan is on from 1pm.
At 7pm, it’s The Fans Show with Aaron Paul, followed by the Love Sport Late Shift with Lembit Opik at 10pm.
The station’s website is also live, at lovesportradio.com, created by Aiir.
We are Love Sport. Here to take the radio rule-book & rip it apart piece by piece ?
We're gonna be unofficially spouting our nonsense in London on 558AM & on DAB from 6am on Mon 5th March ?
Then we'll launch for real on Mon 19th March. World domination will shortly follow ? pic.twitter.com/C18KwykDSS

So is that National DAB or just London ?
Lembit Opek, that well known sportsman.
I wish them well, but I fear that talkSport and radio 5 have the radio sports market covered. The non sport related stuff will certainly be a worth a listen as LBC is just for political anoraks these days and talkRadio seems to have lost the plot somewhat firing decent presenters and replacing them with idiots.
I wonder how many people will actually listen on MW?! In a growning digital world it would have made sense to just opt for DAB. + Cheaper…
Say what you like, but Kelvin has the magic touch. Look out talkSPORT.
Looking forward to tuning in ,good luck all
I listened. Then I didn’t.
Good luck get decent presenters and your on to a winner. Talksport is there for the taking, apart from Brazil (when he turns up) their presenters are rubbish! jim White shouts at the mic (does it work) and licks everyone’s backside. take it away.
