No chance, a commercial station is run on a shoestring compared to a bbc station. Just look at their sports team and coverage of cricket, speedway let alone the football. TR for all his faults does a pretty good job, he is free's sport dept.



I think it's the other way around to be honest. BBC WM is a shoestring operation. Just look at some of the utter fucking idiots they have to employ for starters. Who'd pay proper money for the likes of them?

They have some bellend scouser on from 1pm talking shit all afternoon, usually about cars (he's an ex car salesman). It's so second rate it's untrue.


Sadly said Bellend Scouser has been 'promoted' to take over Adrian Goldberg's show - a decent presenter, whilst an Indian couple from London who made their name on a reality TV how get the afternoon show.

A local station for local people.  Half the time some of these presenters can't even pronounce place names correctly.

I'd just like to say, I have always found Adrian Goldberg to be an absolute cock.

Richie Anderson joined us on our coach once for an away game for WM and got all our predictions before we set off. He's a pinstripeyfilth fan but besides that, a nice enough chap.

The WM sports bulletin this morning at about 7.30 literally did not even mention that we had signed Tom Cleverley. The main headline was that Jeremy Peace was pleased that the pinstripeyfilth had not left their transfer dealings until the last minute this window unlike last year.

Flicking through the stations on the way home from work last night, I caught some bloke talking about them on the WM phone saying "some people are talking about Pulis.  We'm Albion. Everyone knows we play proper football".  Talk about delusional.

So 3 games into the season the loyal best fans in the West Midlands are already calling phone ins talking about replacing their manager.

I never defend the Albion but most did not want the manager in the first place

True, but even so, it seems a bit sad that they only give him three games to prove himself.

Look at how little we wanted McLeish, and he got months.

I think everyone thought it was an odd appointment, not just their fans. Judging by how long they gave Mel P, he wont be there very long if they don't improve.

He was a couple of years above me at school. He was a cock then and is a cock now.

It was more the "we'm Albion" comment that got me.  They really do have such an over inflated opinion of themselves.

An excellent journalist, although I did write some stuff for his website a few years ago so I am somewhat biased.

However, as far as football is concerned, apart from his support for Sandwell, he retains a soft spot for Small Heath and as such plenty of disdain for Aston Villa, so from that point of view he is, indeed, a cock as you say.

.. look at his tweets. Constantly on about us rather than that tinpot outfit from Handsworth.

If that's the BC coach (which I think it is), it's a good job he never showed his cards. He might have been straight out the Emergency exit.
