I enjoyed him ripping the piss out of Ross on a Friday night, who was making the sort of outlandish claims about what Small Heath were going to do that almost seems to define every 'nose I've ever met."The coconut king of fantasy island!"

He was a clown who would come out with ever-more hysteria and hyperbole, his shock jockism was so clearly faked as to be embarrassing and above all he was a coward who could dish it out but was totally unable to take even the mildest criticism. That he's been doing the Sky Sports graveyard shift for twenty years sums him up.I quite enjoyed your dissection of his criticism of H & V in one of the early editions. So whilst he stuck up for the Villa he was indeed the paupers Tony Butler of local radio.He would often devote large chunks of his programme to slagging us, although never saying why. He went through one issue page by page, but missing out the page where he was criticised. I don't think he ever understood what good advertising it was. I might be wrong but doesn't Gavin's antipathy towards H&V stem from asking for and being refused a free copy when it was 50p?

Either that or they were rolled up. He was very friendly but looked like a twat.
Not saying they are desperate for themes to the show but tonight they are asking supporters 'what is your pre match meal?' Last night it was 'do you have any club souvenirs on display in your car?'
They're currently running commentary of Brown Ideye's goals with The Strangler's 'Golden Brown' playing in the background. It's cracking stuff this.
I caught the last phone call after the match on Tuesday night when a caller claimed WM were anti Villa and that it was like listening to a London station and not our local one. Before he could finish his sentence the presenter cut him off and made some sarcastic remark.
