Jim whites entire programme today is dedicated to proving himself right about the pitch invasion. Shouting over and mocking anyone who tries to argue and only reading tweets that agree with him, he's such a shitter of a presenter he brings absolutely nothing to this conversation.

Someone needs to send him on holiday for a while. Like seven or eight years.
He does have a habit of making everything he says "REALLY SHOCKING".

He keeps saying, "I wish we could talk about Will Griggs amazing goal, but we're talking about the pitch invasion!"

IT's your show, you dumb bastard, you talk about what you CHOOSE to talk about. He simply doesn't understand how to present a radio talk show - i've said it before, he can handle TV because it's scripted and directed and he is basically just the mouthpiece for the auto-text that scrolls in front of him, but on radio when he's required to actually engage with others and come up with some original content, he might as well be commentating on bog snorkeling while locked in the boot of a car.

I like Bob Mills and usually (ban me now) Perry Groves.

Bob Mills is always good value, Perry Groves talks a lot of sense. I do miss Didi Hamann and Danny Murphy though, they were also pretty good to hear their opinion. The current crop though is just dreadful and to dump Bob Mills with spending the afternoon in the company of Jim White, well that's just cruelty to Bobs.

He's just got a Sunderland fan on. Bet he says "great call, you can feel the emotion in what he was saying".

He would be great with H&J although they are very much a double act.

Listening to Joey Barton this morning with Alan Brazil. It was tough listening. Now I don’t mind Barton as a pundit but today he sucked donkey balls.

He accused a Manc who made a joke about Scousers of being racist. And he was serious. And it was seconds after he laid into Scottish people.

As I’m typing this I can’t remember what the other 2 things were. They were much worse than the above example. Bugger.

I just tried finding the podcast to remind myself what it was that annoyed me so much but came across several articles today about how Barton and Brazil were both amazed that Dembele hadn’t been picked for France yet. ‘Can’t believe he has no international caps for France’ etc. The producer obvs whispered the fact he’s Belgian in their ears and Brazil said ‘there are so many Dembeles nowadays’. Cocks.
Why isn’t Bob Monkhouse getting a call up to the French squad?

Yesterday it was alli’s ‘dive’ against Rochdale, despite playing audio of their manager says it was a pen, despite Danny Murphy, who commentated on the game say it was a pen and despite interviewing a Rochdale player who said he thought it was a pen during the match and still did when he saw the replay. He still carried on with his ‘dive’ narrative, he’s such a prick

No doubt that Talksport has gone a bit in the last two years. That was when the owners of the Sun took over. Colin Murray resigned in protest. Some of the programmes seem to have been dumbed down. Jim White is terribly patronising at all times and I’ve just about had enough of him. Bob Mills is ok but every day? Some of the people on it are very uninformed. No surprise there if they are ex pros. Only Cascarino Danny Murphyand Cundy seem to have any knowledge. They have now given Goldstein a show on Sunday ..he is far too juvenile for that. I’m fed up of hearing that Newport and now Rochdale are going to make a million from a replay. Best of luck with max of 40k paying 10 and five pounds. 200k max for Rochdale I would think. I mainly listen to H and J, Danny Kelly and sometimes Durham. I see the press pass has gone to talksport two. Much prefer the journalists as they do have some knowledge ...far in excess of the likes of dean Saunders and parlour. Collymore was ok but obviously too much of a nutcase so they got rid.

Not from the replay it was 250k for the first game but it’s about 75k for the replay. They may make a million from their cup run but not the replay. They all think it’s like going to old Trafford with a 70k crowd as Exeter did some years ago.

Apparently they didn’t renew Collymore’s contract after the euros in France. He was falling out with everyone and threatening producers etc. He is very knowledgeable and a proper supporter unlike most of the others. I tend to turn if off quite a lot these days.

Have to say goughie stood up for his when Durham did his daily 'Lets dig out spurs' 15 minutes..... Durham laid out his agenda, is Poch getting away with it, until goughie quite rightly corrected him saying we made 10 changes to the team which drew at Juve, 5 players coming back from injury that needed serious game time, the fact that we haven't lost in a long time and that the pen was a definite pen.

What's his take on the pitch invasion out of interest?

H&J are great. Always liked Danny Kelly even though he sometimes tries too hard not to be a biased Spurs fan. Ok, Micky Quinn is too far the other way but nothing wrong with nailing your colours to the mass mast a bit.
