In this paper we cross-correlate the FIRST 1.4GHz radio survey with a wide field (1.6deg²) shallow [f(0.5-8keV) 1e-14erg/s/cm²] XMM-Newton survey. We find 12 X-ray/radio matches representing 4% of the X-ray selected sample. Most of them are found to be associated with AGNs (total of 9) on the basis of the observed optical spectra (3), radio morphology (2) or X-ray/optical properties (4), while one radio source is identified with an X-ray selected cluster. We also find two sources associated with low redshift galaxies with narrow emission line optical spectra, X-ray luminosity L(0.5-8keV) 1e41erg/s, radio luminosity density L(1.4GHz) 5e22W/Hz and logfₓ/fopt -2 suggesting `normal' star-forming galaxies. We argue that radio surveys combined with X-ray sample could provide a powerful tool for identifying X-ray selected `normal' galaxies powered by stellar processes. Finally, radio loud and quiet systems in the present sample have mean X-ray spectral properties consistent with Gamma 1.9.
