Except if you listen to him a lot you see that he is paid to create "debates" which prompt people to pay to phone in, thereby generating income for the station. Gough is his Padawan, and prompts just as many arguments/debates. Their tactic is to promote opposing views to each other, and of course everyone calls in.

The reason I will only listen to it AFTER 10am. The man is painful to listen to, stumbling along sounding half cut.

The sooner he goes the better.

 

[Dodger]

People listen to Talksport??

Correct, you need to take him with a punch of salt, also if you listen to his points with an open mind some are very interesting to think on.

However I can't abide his condescending tone.

I would be interested to know what he is like off air.

He reminds me in a way of when john Gaunt used to b on there.

Think the phrase is shock jock. He's paid to get people talking, and I guess this thread proves that it works whether you agree or disagree with him

Missed that one , was going to ring him wen he said wenger does not know what he is doing , was going to ask him how many PL titles and FA cups he has won that makes him an expert

So you can only have an opinion on a manager if you are a manger yourself who has won several trophies?

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Haven't listened to Talksport for years. Hated Brazil and Derham is just looking for an argument. He isn't here under a pseudonym by chance. I was a fan of Hawksby and Jacobs in the afternoon but found they were losing their sparkle as well.

This is correct, they have opposing views on nearly everything

Yes and why not , You have to have been there and done it before you can comment and people take note , Its like a women and pregnancy , how are we guys going to know what its like if we not done it and never likely too , the guy is a plank , he is paid to cause debate but not the way he does it , i dont bother with him no more

So based upon your logic I assume you must have been a radio broadcaster.

Otherwise, if you have not been there or done it you cannot comment.

Mind you Durham is a pain in the backside with his self-proclaimed football afficianado status.

Never assume anything , thats how you get into trouble and never twist things to suit which is what you are doing , I question his methods to promote debate by calling everyone stupid and stuff like that , he is carrying out a form of trolling on the airwaves and getting away with it but the call in to his show have dropped by a lot as people know he is plank and if he does not like your call as its making him out to be a fool he cuts you off ...............................EYG
