lesserthan1 Â Â 10 #421 Posted January 17, 2016 Surely the BBC should scrap all local radio to save funds rather than cutting back on every live sport? Â Who really listens to it 90% of the time? The only useful bit is the local sports coverage, and a long time ago they used to tell you when the schools were shut . Â All of the local content they 'provide' could be accessed on the internet, if it's not already on there anyway. Â Although if they scrapped it what would all the Alan Partridge types do?

smartya   10 #424 Posted January 19, 2016 Just turned on the radio, Radio Sheffield on, 'Clueless', what a fantastically appropriate name! Absolute unlistenable, excruciatingly embarrassing pony!  Couldn't agree more. What a waste of prime weekend air time. How did this get past the editors. Aimlessly, with vague directions driving a vehicle around to boring locations. How can you appreciate that on a radio program? what's next, paint by numbers on radio? Pointless and clueless.

bungleboy69   101 #425 Posted January 19, 2016 If you want quality on Radio Sheff, John Kanes show 6pm on Saturday (unless Praise or Grumble overruns) - soul, Northern & Motown. Gets me dancing every week as I put the oven chips in  John Kanes plays top music, but his voice drives me absolutely mad. Sounds like he's out of breath and wheezing all the time... Not a voice for radio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Nankypoo   10 #426 Posted January 19, 2016 Today's phone in 'Your job, career choice, are you happy at work'.  How original - they can't have had a phone in on this topic for a least a couple of months. Constant drivel and don't get me started on the buffoons who do the outside broadcasts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

steved32 Â Â 55 #432 Posted January 22, 2016 Now then...Pressman. Â What a monumental bore. He is moulded out of the "Smashie and Nicie" stereotype. Â Today, he follows up a serious report about a shooting in Mexborough with his daily inane phone- in topic..." What's the food you can't resist?" Â Insensitive, thick, boring? Yes, all of these, like the same old saddoes who stroke his ego every Sunday morning, on Clueless (cue switch to Radio Anything). I mean, today's clue, "Reverse a mark, and add part of a candle"? Derrrrrr..... Â He lives in North Derbyshire, where bore holes are being drilled to test for fracking. Start with his gob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
