ajax_andy 0 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Praise the lord! I hate the smug fat git... his show has become so boring and he annoyes the hell out of me. The wife sticks it on in the car in the mornings as apparently talksport isn't suitable (women eh?!) and more often than not I just end up switching the radio off all together. Apparently he'll be replaced with Nick Grimshaw who wouldn't be my choice but tbh I'd rather anyone than Moyles! Today is a good news day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill 0 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I like it, so I think it's a shame. Always runs late with the news so I get the 7am bulletin when I'm in the shower at about 5 past rather than having to wait for half 7, and it's suitably stupid/light-hearted for the commute to work. I know Moyles isn't popular and can be a bit annoying at times but generally I've always enjoyed the show. Not a fan of Grimmy so don't think I'll be listening when he's on.

Alex 35570 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Moyles or Talksport? Talk about Hobson's choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46020 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Radio 2 or 5 for me. Podcasts for the drive in though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CabayeAye Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Chris Moyles is the only thing on Radio 1 that I can stomach. The other stuff is just vacuous shit aimed at brainless kids. Apparently the BBC is trying to make Radio 1 'younger', so I assume that means taking the mildly humurous Moyles off and replacing him with another identikit trendy type (Grimshaw). Doesn't bother me too much, I'm a Radio 2 man myself (unless that scouse fairy is on, then the radio goes off).

This, I'm not a huge fan but don't want him to die a painful death like some. 'Grimmy' is a fucking idiot, he'll last 12 months and then sacked due to plunging listener figures. I've yet to find a breakfast DJ that I really enjoy, well not since Mark and Lard's ill-fated spell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CabayeAye Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 It is fucking shocking management by the BBC, like. "I know, let's replace the most successful DJ we've ever had with a total fuckwit who no-one likes because we need to 'youthen' our audience.' If listening figues don't plummet by 12 months, I'll drink piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CabayeAye Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 About f**king time he went.... I know he was a bit odious, but do you really want more boring patter from the likes of Grimshaw? Grimshaw followed by Fearne Cotton? My ears would bleed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46020 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Have they sacked him or has he walked? He'll be stinking up Radio 2 before long. Unless he gets a bigger money offer from commercial radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he gets a bigger money offer from commercial radio. They haven't sacked him, just taken him out of the breakfast slot. They'll move him to another slot, unless his contract states that he must be in that slot, in which case they'll pay up the remaining year and a bit on his contract and he'll go and make mega bucks on Capital.

LoveTheBobby 1 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 End of an earache . Fuckin gobshite . Him and all his sycophantic 'crew' of media student twats want putting on a bus and being driven off the edge of a cliff - and I'd happily be the driver . Remember hearing that there's actually a team of TWELVE 'writers' for his show ! Surprised the BBC haven't put Stacey Dooley or that stupid goofy coloured lass with the ginger barnet in there .

Brock Manson 0 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I only listen to CDs in the car, simply because I hate every single bullshit song and DJ on Radio 1 with a passion. Chris Evans is alright on Radio 2 though I guess. Moyles was decent when he did the afternoons a few years ago but has eventually become intolerable. Anyone who releases an album of their own parody songs has clearly disappeared up their own arse. The not-so-fat-anymore prick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he gets a bigger money offer from commercial radio. Hes playing Herod in ALW's latest production of "Supermac Jesus Christ Superstar"....incredibly, this is actually true Radio one changed forever in the 90s, aiming for the 16-24 year olds. Moyes was part of that, so now he's basically DLT with a better PR team. He's always been, without exception, fuckin dreadful. Don't care how old you are, at any stage of his radio career you care to mention he's been unlistenable. Didn't like football, joined radio one, discovered football was popular with his audience, decided he was a Leeds Utd fan, culminating in that other cunt Peter Ridsdale being interviewed live on Radio One and singing "Leeds United Calypso" live on air. What a pair of fuckin cockmonkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio 2 was canny good until that other utter wanker Evans got the Wogmeisters gig. Self regarding cretin. I love radio, always have done. Its not much diffferent nowadays content wise to years ago though, theres some you'd pay money to listen to e.g. for teenagers in the 70s and 80s Kenny Everett and Steve Wright were brilliant. I used to tape the Steve Wright show if I was off school, the funniest thing I'd heard as a young un. You had to pick and choose your presenters then as well, as you say DLT and Bates were fuckin dinasours, carrying on the same old shit theyd don since the 60s when half of their alleged audience were getting off their tits every weekend at raves etc...."quack quack oops" fuck me, that was awful Nowadays 6 music is good, some of the specialist shows on radio one are worth a podcast blast, interesting docu stuff on radio 2, five live is great too. Lots of choice in the digital age. But I pity the youth of today getting musical pointers from Ferne fuckin Cotton and Reggie Yates etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
