They have to have someone there, so that on-air they can ask; "Describe the atmosphere for us."

Within 5 minutes of switching on this lunchtime, the 5Live announcer had mentioned the atmosphere in Moscow.

They sent out a tweet asking why the England fans aren't in Moscow.

Given our first game is 600 miles away in Volvograd, that's probably why.

She WAS a newsreader but she has been a presenter for a while.
Listen to Talksport and let it be a lesson to you

Don’t really give a stuff what her job title is although the difference means she thinks she has a greater sense of entitlement whilst having almost no more credentials.

A 'Presenter'? What is that exactly? I present a shit into my toilet. Am I a 'presenter'? I think the term is 'broadcaster'. ie: A person who is just articulate and middle-class enough with a drive that doesn't offended too many people'. ie: A fucking vanilla cunt who can't be arsed to get a real job like; a nurse, or a teacher, or a bus driver. A CUNT.

That is most broadcasters all-over though isn't it. At least Robbie Savage did something. At least he ran around for a living kicking a ball. At least he thinks he knows what he's talking about. These talking-heads that plague the broadcast media have rotted debate. The thing the fucks me off is that they are so ensconced in their bubble and utterly self-unaware they have no idea how much damage they are doing. If you tried to pull them up on it they would blank you.

And the cunts have a fully expensed trip to major summer sporting events. Tony fucking Livesey was talking about jollying it up during Wimbledon fortnight. Just close the station down in Summer and send the whole tucking staff, traffic girls et all to the four corners of the globe on our hard earned.

Each time I have the misfortune of hearing this man I feel my brain rotting away. It's as if I recognise the futility of existence. Rachel Burden, like many of them on 5Live: patronising, supercilious, and condescending. I don't really give a fuck as I don't listen, but for the mongs who do, the presenters are taking the fucking piss out of them on a daily basis.

I really didn't think I'd say this- Robbie Savage's World Cup show in the morning is actually a decent listen. Depends on the guests, clearly, but even Savage has been bearable.

Have you ever met anyone - and I mean in real life, not the footballing media circle jerk - who thinks Redknapp is anything other than a mediocre, crooked cunt of a fraud?

I bet you haven't.

Yesterday we had Robbie Savage followed by an hour's phone in on Love Island'. The tS option of a bored, uninformed, witless pisstank dribbling on wasn't any more appealing.
