Where else am I going to hear about a hedgehog gutter brush?
You'll have a particular poster on here on your case. I said, years ago, that I couldn't understand why people moan like fuck about the station, yet still tune in the next day. This poster got very stroppy about what I said, saying that it was up to the individual as to what they listened to. And I wasn't even telling people not to listen! I'll watch this thread VERY closely, to see if this poster has a pop at you. Or if he's just a hypocrite.Far be it for me to join the awful cancel culture - but I am. Is it time to boycott this shoddy, grubby sation?
Constant jibes against us, loaded editorial lines to undermine us, constant insinuations, refusal to portay our achievements favourably, failure to defend us or cite the benefits of regeneration and good works our owners have provided, the celebrating of our setbacks and the favouring of the more salacious "City are dodgy, a Frankenstein Club" attacks; their employment of rag and dipper sympathising presenters.
I get that some will listen to anything whatsoever in a dearth and absence of City related discussion - car crash syndrome, but if we and others refused to listen and phone in (only to be ignored and cut off), there is a hope that the station would suffer. Would love to see an end to it and the freeloading rogues gallery that has contained animal neglecters, drink drivers, alleged women beaters, bankrupts, failed business owners et al, made redundant.
Just don’t take it so seriously. It’s just background noise for me when I’m working.
I feel perfectly healthy thank you, youngbob, and I fully appreciate that's their m.o. - just think the landscape would be far better without their shit stirring. Yes "ignore it" .... if only others would and would stop reciting it ad verbatim! As for them winding others up in equal measure - don't think so.TalkSport's designed to do one thing: wind people up. Doesn't matter if it's City fans or United fans or Arsenal fans or Liverpool fans or whoever, they get the likes of Simon Jordan and thickos like Agbonlahor and O'Hara (such esteemed names!) to spout some wind-up nonsense that they barely believe themselves to get people ringing in and texting in so they can tell their advertisers and sponsors that they're worth the money being invested. The sooner people see TalkSport, and other things like 606, for what they are and back away, the happier and healthier we'll all be.
