Cottaging Canary 0 Posted July 30, 2008 GR was on Talksport this morning.......anyone hear this? I had to leave for work, just wondering if anything interesting or new was revealed at all? The show is on for another hour so it''s possible he may not have actually been on yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrdi 373 Posted July 30, 2008 Given the pro-Ipswich [and therefore anti-Norwich] stance of Talksport, in particular Brazil/Townsend/Cundy, I''d say they had Roeder on air with the sole intention of poking fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarytom 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Do you actually listen to that crap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrdi 373 Posted July 30, 2008 I have a tendency to have it on in the kitchen in the mornings. Tommo''s Tips [and the Mister Ed theme] are my signal to leave the house to go to work, so it''s become an integral part of my routine. In the mornings, I need low-brow listening before I spend the rest of the day being a pioneer/genius. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrdi 373 Posted July 30, 2008 I''ve never heard him say anything positive about Norwich either. But then again, after his ''performance'' when he came back with Chelsea [and the barracking he got from the Barclay], why would he? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ncfcstar 289 Posted July 30, 2008 Clearly Townshend as an ex-canary should not be put in the same category as Brazil and Cundy!! I hate this radio station more than any other, absolute rubbish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarytom 0 Posted July 30, 2008 I hate it too but someone could answer this poor guys question. He''s obviously missed his favourite show and just wanted to find out what was said. However, I doubt that many Norwich fans listen to those binners! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cottaging Canary 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Finally, some support! I could listen to it all day, Brazil can be annoying but like you say, he rarely mentions the scum.
