Read that earlier and saw nothing begrudging at all. Notes us back at the highest level, with a demanding manager inspiring the best from his players, wondering, like the rest of us how we値l match up to Bayern.

To be fair so sometimes listen on BBC sounds now that so live up north cos it痴 just nice to hear all the accents from home.
I think it痴 got loads better. They seemed to have stopped trying to be provocative the whole time & they seem to have a wider varierty of callers than the same old Eddie & Polly (who still turn up occasionally but not every bloody night!).
They occasionally even let the caller speak!

Was listening to the show earlier. They're making the openly racist "marmite eddie" into a minor celebrity even giving the rude old bastard a build up! Next up was a gushing blue nose who is convinced that Small Heath are to become "the new Man City or Newcastle" I turned it off for the sake of my sanity.

Although he has been the Wolves correspondent on there for some time, Mike Taylor is usually balanced and one of the better ones on there.

Following the departure of Mark Regan who was the defacto "Villa commentator", they just used whoever was available rather than replace him. Every other club retains theirs, Wilford with the Rags, Gurney Does Sangwell, Taylor the Wolfs and Tom Marlow does the Sagglers so they can get fucked. Well that's what it was like a while ago, I never listen now.

Yes Wilford tends to do our games I think or at least he did.

Apparently BRMB is coming back.


I値l get me coat.

I discovered this when idly asking Alexa to play BRMB.  I don't think they've got any football coverage/phone-ins though - sounds just like any generic commercial station playing 80s-00s pop.

Local radio is dreadful.

All traffic reports, unfunny male-female breakfast show pairings who think they're hilarious, dreadful sport coverage, phone-in competitions every three minutes and presenters who make you embarrassed of where you come from.

It is basically like a locally targeted, looped, sound-only version of The One Show, all insipid rubbish, badly delivered by simpering cretins.

It all sounds suspiciously like it is aimed at the dimmest members of society. WM is bad, but it's really not as if the commercial alternatives are any better.

When i attain a Putin-like grip on the running of this country, one of the first things I will do is abolish it. I'll institute a radio channel that only delivers traffic reports (like that one for French motorways), and the likes of Paul "Call Me Franksy" Franks will find themselves up in front of a peoples' court on charges of being massive, massive bell ends.

I知 being nostalgic whilst being on holiday.  This has to be one of the your best ever.  I知 in a bar in Crete laughing like the proverbial drain.

I've had to listen to their phone-in a couple of times this week. Are there any other clubs in the area except Wolves?

Once television makes it to Wolverhampton then it will probably mean the end for Radio WM.

That made me laugh far more than it should have done.

The last time I listened to that, they had an grumpy Albion fan on, a blind girl (or boy, i could never tell) called Si who wobbled on about Gabby and hate for Darren Bent and....er that was it really.

I think that may be the Albion fan I was on about.
