'Not very well' - Alan Brazil misses regular talkSPORT show through illness

Alan Brazil will not host his talkSPORT breakfast show this morning through illness.

The radio regular is missing his regular slot due to ill health.

Brazil - a former Ipswich and Manchester United player - has been replaced by commentator Sam Matterface.

And the stand-in host, who presented alongside Gabby Agbonlahor, updated listeners that Brazil wasn't on hosting duties due to illness.

Matterface stated: "Alan Brazil is not very well. We wish him all the best."

Brazil is one of the big names at the broadcaster and often hosts talkSPORT breakfast with Ally McCoist.

He is regularly embroiled in back-and-forth jibes with McCoist over their contrasting Celtic and Rangers allegiances.
