Fans calling post match phone ins who've not seen the match!

The GMR callers are generally comedy gold on the way home from the match. 90% literally haven't a clue, whether they've been to the match or not.

I like Gleghorn, though. Didn't know he was moving on. Anyone know who his replacement is?


I usually end up firing expletives in the direction of the radio. Last night was not as painful as some; just a bit dull.

Must admit I quite like Gleghorn and looks like someone at City does as he is going to coach the U14's.

Best one last night was the guy who didn't go to the match because he was putting Xmas decorations up on his roof! I'm sure he was fully concentrating on the commentary enough to have an informed opinion on the match!


That dick head has been phoning in for years and I've still yet to hear him say that he's actually been to the game
He always used to speak to Hinchcliffe on 1152
Yep bang on thats alan,he tries to make a name for himself coming on a spouting usual shitty sound bites. I wouldnt believe a word he came out with

I missed yesterday's game due to a holiday. The last few games have been at odd KO times and they've not had Jimmy Wagg anchoring. That guy with the southern accent (I think he's their United correspondant) and the Bolton buy don't have any "feel" for City.

I'm pleased for Gleghorn. He nearly always calls it correctly. I know he does coach juniors so hopefully it's a good appointment.
 
Always hilarious listening - drunken, lonely, social outcasts, gloating after a win and on the verge of suicide after a loss.
Comedy gold - and certainly better than the Shouting Dogger or (everything that's wrong with modern media presenters) Darren Fletcher - Fletch to his one mate.
 
I rang gmr in 2000 when we beat everton 5-0 at home..
I didn't go,had been drinking guiness at home all afternoon,got a bit giddy as a win was rare those days and was surprised to get through jimmy wagg and peter barnes....
Got asked what i thought of the result and then got asked did you go, to which my response was,and i quote..."no i didn't go,i've been at home drinking guiness and dancing round my living room like a loon listening to the match..."
Cue silence and the tone of being cut off......

I know this prick loosely he's never been to a game in his life. A complete tool
 
I think Jack Dearden is pretty good ,but I can't listen to Wagg. Spends the whole hour telling us to call in and "don't sit there like piffy" then there's hardly time for any calls coz he craps on inanely about nothing in particular. The worst caller is that Alan from Salford, who is always on and keeps moaning about our defence ( fourth best in the Prem this season by the way Al ). Does he actually go to the games ? !

Jimmy Wagg is absolutely superb. Warm, funny, and totally "City" in his outlook. The show isn't the same without him.

Nigel fucking gleghorn??? I've heard it all now........ His knowledge is shite over the radio, navas knows what its like in the flesh -personally I think he's an inept Kunt, that 25/30 minute drive home after the game is like pulling teeth with him and those callers....... still listen though!!!!!

I seen what you did there ;)
 
Andy buckley was the best commentator on gmr,great voice for radio and you could hear the emotion in hs voice..
Cheesy and fred eyre are mr and mrs monotone,they could talk a glass eye to sleep...
 
I have seen posters in the matchday thread slagging the team off based on other posters in the matchday threads comments. These plums aren't even watching the match and are basing their opinions on people that are half watching the match while posting shite on the interweb.
 
Always remember driving back from Coventry after a 3/2 win .before online football. had radio 5 on and there was a Coventry fan from Oxford who said our penalty wasnt a pen when asked if he saw the game he said no I didnt go
 
I'm sure they must screen the calls and put the most negative on air?

after we beat Spurs 6-0 they were putting callers on moaning about the defence

very rarely do any callers have anything positive to say - you'd think we lost every week and were bottom of the league!!

He only played 1 season for City Gleghorn . I would hardly say he was a City legend . Fred Eyre is a better pundit on City than Gleghorn . I think Pam on here goes on the phone in after the match . Your right about his knowledge, it is pretty poor in my book .
personally I found Gleghorn to be a reasonably good after match analyst.............Fred Eyre..........do me a favour, talk about putting your foot in it so many times.........with one goal in it we,ve got the game sewn up....oops then there,s the equalizer.............

Should have fell off the bloody roof, a complete know nowt, sounds more like a rag, apparently Vinny's in a bad way and we need an urgent replacement because Demichelis doesn't cut mustard. F Me O'Reilly !!!!!
