Pig and Grumble

[mahatmafoot]

Have to say I quite enjoy the programme, but when the Parkgate Pig and Brian the Bore come on, I usually put the kettle on or spread some lard on the cat's boils till they've finished. Lo and behold the programme last night was given over to them as guest presenters. Listened to P/P and he tried to come over like a professional and ended up sounding like a total prat. Turned it off after 5 minutes of drivel and went and black leaded the oven.
So I turn on the the Tubby Foster show this morning and the first caller is, yup you guessed. P/p as though he was the voice everyone in Sheffield had woken up to hear.
Pleeeaaassee if anyone from Radio S is listening please consign those 2 to the scrap heap.
Anyway can't wait for tonight. 3 - 1 Blades.

Someone on Porktalk, probably his mother, described McBrewer as "rational".

Made me think , why would anyone be that p1ssed this early?

I listened until 6.30 and by then i'd had enuff,both think they're "celebrities" in truth both are prats who like the sound of their own voices.UTCB

The format has been tired for years. There just isn't enough 'new' or interest to justify a programme evey night of the week. Saturday, Tuesday, Wednesday, thats it. What the feck is there to talk about on Thursday after discecting the midweek game? The fewer who call in, the worse it gets until (as it seems) you end up with two dullards who like talking but have nowt to say. Its really cheap broadcasting though, so unless you can replace it with something equaly banal, I suspect it will limp along in its current Zombie like state.

Its the same problem with a lot of broadcasters, and especially the 24hr single function news channels. Sky have the same problem with their SSN programme. There just isn't enough news to fill 24hr of TV every day, hence all the pointless graphics, statistics and analysis, reruns every hour, etc etc etc, although at least with SSN you do get to see Kirsty Gallaghers ample frontage.

I've just seen on Staton's twitter page,before Brian left the studio,he did em a song,it's funny to be fair but my word the size of Brian's conk that's CONK(Nose) means it'd cost him a fortune to even half fill it up wi snuff. UTCB

That's mean.

They had them 2 as guest presenters?

Congratulations Radio Sheffield,a new all time low

[herbert]

It really was an all time low (I had to listen for 2 minutes just to check how bad it was). I hope the players didn't listen to that.

There are enough decent podcasts. Could they honestly not replicate some of those rather than persisting with the phone in? There'd be no shortage of volunteers if they were paid, like the RS presenters are?

If they are to have any callers they should have to be certified non retards.

[Currieisgod]

My thoughts exactly regarding an all time low, RS really scored an own goal with this type of format and I wouldn't be surprised if the Pitsmoor Owl is on the next panel alongside Brian the Miller or similar.

The fact that RS gives these people the air time speaks volumes about the state of the programme and the desperation to keep it active for 6 days per week,

Why did they reduce the time of the show from 7-00pm to 6-30pm after the Saturday games when surely this is the busiest time just baffles me, especially when they have it on air on a weds evening for example and they are clearly struggling for constructive callers when it then becomes the Pitsmoor Owl, Mick the Owl and Brian the Blade show,

They all have big ego,s and love the sound of their own voices but RS need to realise that the vast majority of the listeners do not buy into this and are switching off regularly..

The other thing that annoys me is when they say they have talked to CW for example and all it is is a sample from an interview CW did 4 or 5 days previous,!! say straight after a game - Very frustrating indeed and a poor attempt at keeping listeners tuned in.

Last night for example was a car crash radio show and Staton must have been quaking in his shoes throughout this as apart from Mick the Owl who despite at least going to games bores the pants of everybody and also you have Brian the Blade who does not even attend games which shows in his comments about Ched et al and how can they justify air time to a person that insults CW on air by implying that our manager did not have a brain after a recent home game which again he did not even attend. UTB -
