    Yes they do.

    Stopped listening two years ago......sick of hearing Paul Franks who loves the sound of his own voice.

    He spends 95% of the time asking and repeating the same questions and leaving contributors only 5% of the time to reply.

    The phone in is rubbish.

    Crikey, all these years on and they still blow the klaxon, nothing changes does it? Perhaps they'll bring back Tony Butler with his prayer mat and that theme tune he used play, do you remember it??

    I have to admit that I will miss Le Tissier, Thompson, Nicholas and Merson (if he's also leaving). They've all played at the highest level and know what they are talking about. They also interacted well together. God know who they will replace them with but you can bet your bottom dollar that it will be their PC credentials that decide and not their football knowledge. I just won't bother watching it if my fears come to fruition.

    Long time since I’ve heard that. Hurricane Smith long time sound engineer for all of The Beatles significant albums. Is Tony Butler still alive?

Basically, it's all racially motivated according to him. If I'm going to listen to an opinion, give me Phil Thompson anytime over Clinton Morrison. I'd rather listen to the opinion of a multiple trophy winning ex Liverpool captain than some bang average journeyman player who can barely string two sentences together. Nothing whatsoever to do with what colour he is. So on that those of you with Sky could be listening to people who have never played in the Premier League which makes you wonder why on earth bother?
    I have now listened to Wrights rant and for once he did make me laugh.

    His argument was everyone was jumping onto this decision because they saw it as race based. Well correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it Wright and just about every other bit of the media that brings race into every facet of life.

    Give me strength.

    Was he the one with the high pitched whiney voice who never stopped for breath and just ranted, frequently mentioning he'd once played golf with Darren Bradley?
