Radio 5's gone downhill a lot IMO. For news, R4's much better. I don't mind paying the licence fee, it's giving money to Murdoch's empire that I resent, but in reality probably can't avoid.

I quite like some of 5 live. Kermode and Mayo is excellent.

Apparently the BBC requested interviews with Villa this week but we turned them down.

No issue with that. Sherwood likely wanted to focus on the task ahead than spending a couple of hours doing interviews only for it to be cut to 5 minutes to accommodate more time for the Gerrard love in.

Strange as the O/S showed pictures of the media day on Tuesday in which Benteke gave countless interviews to the newspapers so surely they could've just turned up then?

I'll cut them a bit of slack though as they're not covering the game this weekend so see what sort of coverage BT give us.

Never in the history of humanity has anyone who wrote 'your right' and 'I listen to Radio 4' ever been known. Nor allowed by other listeners.

I miss Radio 4, but that is it as far as the BBC is concerned.

If ever an organisation has lost its way the BBC is it.

I think it's a safe guess that he was referring to the grammar mistake and the average R4 listener being the sort to notice and tut.

Ah balls! Back of the queue when grammar was being given out I'm afraid.

Tut is the least punishment. Pursuing out of England with farming implements borrowed from The Archers more likely.

I listened to the TalkSport commentary this afternoon and can't get that song about the Hedgehog Gutter Brush out of my head

Is that a euphemism?

They have a chance to redeem themselves tonight but I suspect MOTD FA Cup special will be a wake for Stevie rather than a celebration of Villa's magnificence.
