I don't really see her that much these days but much of the BBC women like Rachel Burden are fucking awful.

Dont see her that much?

Her stupid fucking advert about her shitty book about how she got ill then got better is everywhere.

Now now, no one has ever had cancer like her. Its only right she wrote a book documenting this scientific first.

That's that current affairs, daytime programme on BBC 2 I've watched once or twice but she doesn't seem to be in one's face as much as when she was actually on 5Live in the mornings. That Shelagh Fogarty woman who's now on LBC is God awful. A dire presenter and a rampant feminist.

Haven't listened to Five Live in a long-time barring the occasional dalliance with Dotun's world football phone-in (Vickery is a don).

However, Phil Williams is the single most boring radio 'personality' in the UK. I remember when he used to do a feature where members of the public would call up to speak to a mechanic about their car problems. Fucking hell! :lol:

Horrible stuff for the woman, but Riley has always grated especially as he tends to speak in the third person and repeat his name about 10 times every bulletin.

The old chummy, slick, I love myself act come undone.

Fucking hell!! You're right. :shock: He's been rumbled fro accusations by Mishal Hussain. Blimey.

So what about the Bromance between George and Nicky Campbell and Burden too? Made me sick at the best of times, hope Campbell has sleepless nights with the banter he exchanged with a sex pest and being best buddies on air. Revolting.

That George Riley fella did Ch5's Championship football, he looked about 5ft 2in. What is it with short men? They all seem to be twats.

Any mention of Reily on the 5Live news headlines I wonder or has his whereabouts been conveniently airbrushed out? Campbell must be a little embarrassed that he had a bromance with the alleged sex pest. Listening now to 5Live.

I know this may strike you as an odd concept Lawnsy, but he's not actually guilty of anything yet - so even if some bloke who reads the sports news on a breakfast radio show was a worthy news story, in this case there's nothing more to report.

Actually Lawnsy it was mentioned yesterday on the news and that he had been suspended. It’s not necessary to keep its in the news everyday and as Lou said, he’s not guilty of anything yet.

You have clearly missed my point.
