The Rao family could finish us as a club if they woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Some might say it's too risky for them to do that so more likely a slow death and another ten years then no one will give a stuff anyway.

Mattyblue Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I don’t listen to it, but on the odd occasion I did in years gone by, they seemed to find it hard enough to fill the air time in a normal season. I mean how many phone ins on Arsenal’s goalkeeper can you have? But what the feck did they do in lockdown? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdoggsteel Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) Like why would they have a guy on whose major achievement is destroying a solid Premier league club, unless they are actually going to bloody ask him about that!

I listened to it daily when i was a white van man years ago that's what it's designed for really just background noise. Tolerable when you are diving in and out of a van all day but are sick of commercial radio playing same songs on same loop. Min i stopped doing that iv'e never listened since in over a decade and never will...... unless i buy another van maybe ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I listen to the Sports Bar with Goldstein/Cindy/Catterall/Gray from 10 at night cos I'm in the works van, sometimes carry on with Paul Ross/ Sam Stevens from 1 am, easy listening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewood Ace Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I will occasionally listen to the Sports Bar coming back from a mid week game. But the station isn't what it was. No characters on there anymore like Mike Parry or Mike Dicken (RIP). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmm, He is though, he’s also a shit manager. There’s no way that anyone could manage in the PL @nd then not get offered another chance anywhere.

Inglorious basturk Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 If I’m flicking through the radio channels , if I don’t fancy a podcast or some tunes you don’t have many options , radio six can be fine . Five live is droning on about Covid a la Tory . talk sport , Jim white is dreadful but let’s say he has someone with him , it’s often Natalie sawyer , she seems ok ... how often is she biting her tongue? . When Alan Brazil drunk can’t make it they get Laura woods in who really does try too hard ... but she’s affable enough ... but she is still one of the lads right ? as for Adam catterall , st bedes 1sts (me) v seconds (him ) tote jon to pieces and a sly elbow to his face when he tried it on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoverDom Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I listen to it on the drive to and from work. I find the breakfast show quite enjoyable when it was Alan Brazil. Durham on the drive home is a troll. He'll say something to get a reaction and just generally be arrogant. Danny Murphy will often play along and say something to try and be that pundit who gives a different angle on everything 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arbitro Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I read the article below and one paragraph jumped out at me. It is understood that allegations have been made that Farnell has conflict of interest by acting on behalf of both parties in the potential sale of the club. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53698266 I have a recollection that there was some documentation that Anderson was entrusted by the Walker Trust to find a buyer. He found the Raos and therefore created a conflict of interest. It still rankles with me how we were treated with utter disdain by the authorities and how they allowed the wanton destruction of one of their clubs. Can anybody confirm if Anderson did work for both parties? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
47er Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 That's part of the dossier that Glen Mullen published isn't it? Was unequivocal about that as I recall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomphil Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 A finders fee went into his pockets from both sides..... The gist of it Rovers were looking for a buyer, that lot were looking for a football club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
