The trouble with Talkshite presenters is that yes, they may well support a club that isn't manure, but they seem to come within a Rizla paper in second place.
This is the paradox that baffles me most, because I know fans of pretty much every team you can think of, and not one of them would urinate on $old Trafford if it was ablaze.
They are football Marmite - you either support them, or you want to see al-Qaeda come a-calling.
Yet this bizarre station manages to find a bunch of inept imbeciles who have a soft spot for them that nobody else in the entire universe shares.
It truly is a phenomenon worthy of investigation.
Spot on Fetlocks, i would love to sit in on the job interviews for talkshite, it must be a truly bizarre process
'Well I must say - I think your interview has gone really well.
You have demonstrated a complete lack of sport in general, and of football in particular.
It is obvious to myself and the rest of the interviewing panel that there is nothing other than an impressive vacuum between your ears.
We were particularly taken by your utter lack of any personality whatsoever, yet still you managed to convey the fact that you were incredibly annoying despite possessing all the presence of damp cardboard.
You are just the kind of person we are looking for.
Just one last question before we offer you the chance to bore listeners shitless with your abject stupidity - just which football team do you support?'
'Oh, erm, well - they play in red and white, but stripey like Newcastle - oh no, it's on the tip of my tongue - that's it - Stoke.
Stoke United'.
'Er, are you sure you don't mean Stoke City?'
'Oh yeah - that's them - Stoke City - I have been a massive fan ever since they started doing those long throw-in thingys that are so creative.
I love Ryan Shawcross - he is the best defender I have seen since Quinton Fortune, who played for my next-bestest team, who are Manchester United. One day I'm going to watch them play live, if it isn't on Sky, of course, and if there's nothing good on the telly that night.
'Congratulations - the gig is yours - can you start Monday?'
