[SONYMEGADRIVE]

has he replaced ger gilroy? ugh...ivan yates. ugh. 2 days in and i've heard him bring up bookies twice. ugh that guy

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

I think so. Seems like they've changed the set-up.

They have the business guy now on in the morning from 6.30 til 7 on his own.

Then at 7 it's Claire and Ivan.

It looks like it from the website. I wonder what happened to ger

 

[maims bond]

He says things like 'bullshit' in his ads for the show!!!! So risque!

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

he is easily the most unlikeable person on radio. a bleedin BOOKIE!

 

[maims bond]

He's a cunt all right, former FG to boot.

I've started listening to Off the Ball sometimes in the evening, really good sports show.

 

[RED(tape)MENACE]

What a pack of cock.

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Poor ol' Ger. He was once the brightest hope for Irish radio.
I can't believe the got rid of him rather than her. She's cat.

Off The Ball is the only thing worth tuning to Newstalk for.
Well, apart from Dr. Bill every now and then.

 

[HMD]

he's just been on tom dunn there and said he was going off for a month on honeymoon.

 

[krystal]

surprised they didn't make him record all his shows in advance

 

[Gabbo]

It was in the paper a few weeks back saying Yates was gonna take over. over the past few weeks he's seemed bit resigned, not his usually chirpy self.

Real pity cuz he was the best thing on the station. Still like Tom Dunne's show tho.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

I can't stand the text-baiting on that station (obvious questions on contentious issue du jour - the sort of thing Adrian Kennedy does), especially that it's just to sucker people into paying money to subsidise Denis fucking O'Brien.

Poor Ger though.
He always seemed like he'd done his homework.

He's very well liked in Enniscorthy. My Mother thinks he's the bee's knees and she usually would be iffy of any politician in the area past or presant that was an ass.

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

your ma works in ladbrokes though

 

[wild_cat]

your ma works in ladbrokes though

Considering he owns celtic bookmakers and thus if my mother did work in ladbrokes he'd be the competition even if he doesnt stop singing praises about bookies.

So yeah, fail.

 

[SONYMEGADRIVE]

THANKS FOR THE HISTORY LESSON, EINSTEIN!!!!

My father liked him as a politician too. Said he was the soundest.

Further proof that parents know fuck all and NEVER UNDERSTOOD ME!!!!!!!!

 

[old]

Still like Tom Dunne's show tho.

FOR FUCK'S SAKE, THAT PROGRAMME MAKES ME WANT TO BOIL MY FUCKING EYES. So bleedin' banal. Has he had men text in about not putting down the toilet seat yet?

Gilroy was the best ting about the morning show. Still thought he was better on Off The Ball bu'.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Radio between 9am and 5pm is for housewives and idiots.
