Laura Woods, the host of talkSPORT's Breakfast show for three years, was overcome with emotion as a devoted fan called in to share a heartfelt poem dedicated to her. Today (Wednesday) marks her last day on the show, as the 35-year-old prepares to join TNT Sports in the upcoming season.
Woods has become a hugely popular radio host and her departure is a major blow for the station. Tributes poured in during her final broadcast, with one particularly touching homage from an 82-year-old Manchester United supporter named Ivor.
Rising early on Wednesday morning, Ivor phoned in to deliver his heartfelt message, saying: "I don't want to waste much of your time Laura on your final day. Just a few words of appreciation and then one verse of rhyme. If that's ok?" Graciously granting him permission, Woods eagerly awaited the heartfelt tribute.
