Peter Brackley is one of the most popular and richest Sports Commentator who was born on June 13, 1951 in Brighton, England, United Kingdom.
He began his career at BBC Radio Brighton in the early 1970s, before moving to the network. During his time with BBC Radio in London, Brackley covered football – including two FA Cup Finals and the 1982 European Cup Final – and athletics, as well as presenting flagship programmes Sport on Two and Sports Report.
The summer of 1982 saw Brackley make the switch to television, initially with ITV company Central Independent Television replacing Hugh Johns. During his initial spell with the network he covered the 1986 FIFA World Cup and the European Championship in France in 1984 – including commentaries on semi-final matches in both tournaments. His first live match for ITV Sport was the First Division contest between Manchester United and Sheffield Wednesday in April 1986.[1] He also stepped into the breach during the live broadcast of the 1986 European Cup Final between Barcelona and Steaua Bucharest alongside that night’s ITV studio co-pundit, Ron Atkinson, when communication with the commentary team in Seville, Brian Moore and Kevin Keegan, was lost.

1992 was an eventful year for Brackley, as he also returned to the fold at ITV Sport.

On 16 August 1992, Brackley was partnered by Ron Atkinson for Central’s first live broadcast of a Football League match since the split when Birmingham City faced Notts County at St Andrew’s.
