stuart_75 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Simply wonderful hearing 60mins of Dogheads complain that they have no manager this evening. When one of them suggested getting in Big Sam to stop the rot is the moment I spat out my tea with laughter. Glorious stuff to hear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they start saying Nuno is their best option you know they're fooked. I suppose you gotta feel sorry for 'em, a bit haven't you? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unacceptable in this day and age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Ross (local sports radio presenter) hosted a rival football phone in on Friday nights as well as after games and that oft used phrase was used by exasperated fans about their manager, whichever club. Actually, it was more "eeeeee's gorra goooo, Tom !" as I recall, in broad brummie or black country accents. Another Tom-ism was "can I 'ave a bronx hat for the babby, Tom ?" again, in your team's colours, when he was giving them away as prizes. Happy days..... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Dan the Walsall inbred only likes Walsall and small heath because 'they' m proper clubs". Says Brentford are going to beat Wolves 7-0, but Villa beat them 4-0 "because they're rubbish". Drooling jizzgargler. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Major cuts in jobs and local shows planned for Local BBC Radio 'BBC bosses have announced a major plan to share programmes and cut jobs on Local BBC Radio stations in England. [...] Local shows will only survive on weekday mornings and lunchtimes (6am till 2pm) whilst the rest of the output, apart from evening and weekend sport, will be shared either regionally or nationally. There will be six regions going forward, under new Audio Editors, covering North West / North East, Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, Midlands, London and East, South, and South West. A possible 139 posts in local radio will be at risk as a result of the changes and a voluntary redundancy drive is being launched effective immediately. [...] From 6pm weekdays and weekend breakfast, 10 shows will be broadcast where local sport is not broadcast. The 10 shows are: Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Newcastle, Tees and Cumbria Leeds, Sheffield, York and Humberside WM, CWR, Shropshire, H&W and Stoke Derby, Nottingham, Leicester and Lincolnshire Essex, Cambridge, Suffolk, Norfolk, 3CR and Northants Solent, Berkshire and Oxford London, Lent, Sussex and Surrey Bristol, Gloucester, Wiltshire and Somerset Devon and Cornwall' from: https://radiotoday.co.uk/2022/10/major-cuts-in-jobs-and-local-shows-planned-for-local-bbc-radio/ As I read that, either the phone-in will be finished (most likely interpretation?) or would have to be extended to cover 4 more regions. Plans look to be pretty much the end of WM as a radio station with its own identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been going that way for a while, sacking or shifting decent presenters and replacing them with newsreaders or useless pillocks like Rakeeeeem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once Paul Franks cut his hours back and Reago got the tin-tac whilst having the likes of Henry Liston take over you could see BBC had gone down the bargain basement route. I hope the phone-in can survive online maybe. There is no other place I can get my care in the community fix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
