The voice of football commentator Gary Taphouse will be very familiar if you watch a lot of Premier League football matches on TV.
His unmistakable voice has graced plenty of EPL commentaries as well as World Cup qualifiers, Chelsea radio and much more.

"I’ve spent ages thinking about this question and have come to the conclusion that beyond being a football commentator I’m not a very interesting person as I can’t think of a single thing!"
in other words. I'm really shallow and have yet to consider how great it is to actually be involved in sport as a career... damn

Good interview Gaffer, may I suggest Daniel Mann next time?
As for TWI Chiswick, I'll drill it into your brains, when Sky produces a Football First broadcast that is only shown live to international viewers, the commentators are at the grounds as is the case on BBC's Match of the Day.
When it's not a Football First game and it's a live Sky Sports game or Setanta Sports game, TWI brings in their own commentating team (like Steve Banyard and Efan Ekoku) for international viewers.
Games like Arsenal/Bolton from Ian Darke and Gary O'Reilly are from the studio, but Manchester United/Chelsea from Jon Champion and Robbie Earle are in the TV gantry. Monday night matches from Martin Tyler and Paul Walsh are almost guaranteed to be from a studio, with the exception of Man United/Portsmouth from Alan Parry and Paul Walsh, which was at the ground.
I notice that when there are 3 live Setanta/Sky games on, TWI sends 1 or even 2 commentators to the grounds, but never all of them, but that is another misconception that 90% of their fixtures are off a monitor.
So to summarize:
Football First games = Commentators at the game from Sky that are broadcast on TWI
Live Sky Sports and Setanta Games = TWI commentators separate from Sky and Setanta's live broadcast, with 1 or 2 sent to the actual gantry.
From what I know only Taphouse's World Cup work and TWI International Feed games are done off-tube.
Hope this helps.
