Staveley Geoff

Stopped listening regularly years ago.

Bored me to tears same people enjoying the sound of their own voice every night.

Like above, if people enjoy ringing in or listening, fair play to them. Just not been for me for a long time.

Agree. Poor bloke might be a widow or summat? Or one of them old uns with no close family. He might see it as a way of making conversation.

He bores me n all but fair play to him

Yes he bores me mate ,but I guess he could be in the predicament you describe. He seems to enjoy enlightening everyone with his obscure facts from time gone by.Im sure hes under the impression that everyone likes listening to him ,so why would anyone want to tell him any ddifferent. Up the staveley Geoff

He watches Staveley and tells us what's happening. Good for him. I don't give a fuck in the main but he does so power to him. I remember his first call and he mentioned he was from Luton then went banging on about Ronnie Rosenthal (I remember that name in particular). I did wonder what he was on about but obviously since then it figures.

To be fair the pie and peas at Staveley is cracking and if you can get a designated driver along then a few pints whilst watching the match is a cracking afternoon out

Who was the guy kicking off about female linesmen on Monday? Nearly spat beer all over my steering wheel.

Good old Brian mentioned the female linesman missing a call because she was probably brushing her hair. presenter nearly had a fit. WTF's happened to this society, you cough and you're making monkey noises, have a bit of a joke and the Thought Police are onto you. Had a spot on my chin a couple of weeks ago. If anyone had mentioned I was gonna go to the newspapers and the Spot Relations Board. Come back Eddie Booth and Alf Garnett. As for Stuart, think he gets on because hardly anybody phones the show anymore. Same old callers. Apart from the Parkgate and Pitsmoor Pillocks the one who does my head in most is the one who keeps calling everybody Mister.
My favourite used to be Ahmed , the taxi driver. Although a pig fan he always talked sense. Not been on for years but I hope he's okay.

It was brilliant 😂 I'm with you there mate 👌

Ricky Gervais is having a good go at bringing back that sort of thing and having a pop at the 'snowflake' stuff too, fair play! I don't think it's actually as bad as it seems (in real life) but social media makes it look that way, and people like Gervais are fighting that corner, although I have a few mates who stay away from socials and they are oblivious to this sort of thing and generally seem more happy and less moany 😂
 
While we're on the subject of most annoying FH callers, mine is the all knowing Barnsley fan who uses his mythical powers of hindsight to lay claim to insider info and the goings on at Oakwell.

"I told you Mike two weeks ago didn't I... yeah, yeah... yeah"

Usually gets about 6 minutes of uninterrupted rambling before anyone reigns him in.
 
Remember being slightly angry when Geoff first appeared on the show because he just wanted to talk about Luton Town.
Then there’s that new presenter who is from Leicester and admits to supporting Leicester City.

Its almost as though Football Heaven has been hi-jacked....when they are discussing Luton and Leicester. Who cares?

Agree in general Geoff is boring but he does come up with the odd story that I find interesting.
Also he’s polite and well meaning.....got used to him now....Don’t find him as annoying anymore.

I think the caller that I do find annoying is Steven the Barnsley fan. He’s got this incredibly strong annoying Barnsley accent.
It annoys me that he always talks like he’s Barnsleys version of Richard Cadette....he claims to know all the inside information
but then he talks in riddles like he’s an agent in the Secret Service.....he‘ll announce that he knows for a fact a big event is happening at Barnsley FC......Radio Sheffield haven’t a clue what he’s on about and ask him to explain himself.... Steven will say he doesn’t want to say much because it would betray his sources.

Although to be fair it’s the easiest thing in the world to criticise callers....at least they make the effort to call.

I like to be kept up to date with what’s happening to Penistone Church and Staveley Miner’s Welfare, from a Luton fan. It’s fascinating! NOT! :tumbleweed:

Nice bloke? Undoubtedly!

Boring as hell and repetitive? (heard him 3 times in one week saying exactly the same thing). Definitely!

Sycophantic? Definitely!

And that guy Adam Oxley...thick as a brick and allows Geoff to use a sports phone in to enquire about his missus‘s Christmas presents! WTF is that about? 🥵

Oxley needs to learn to be a presenter. He needs to focus Geoff on the topic of the programme which is local football. And he needs to shut the fucker up when he goes rambling on about irrelevant shite, particularly irrelevant shite that he’s told us before.

(Did you know Penistone Church have not played half their games so far due to bad weather?)



I’m sorry but what is the world coming to when you have a sports programme presenter allowing boring old farts like this to dictate the show?

Oxley should take a leaf from James Whale or Scotty McClue!
 
It is what it is. Used to listen every night about 10 years ago. These days it doesn’t even enter my head to tune in. Each to their own. Like others have said maybe some of the callers do it either for attraction or loneliness, it’s not for us to judge as to their motives.

By the way agree with the earlier post about the over reaction of presenters having a fit about a bit of banter that could be deemed as sexist. The world has gone mad in the last 5 years

Brian the Blades classic was his advice to whoever the 🐖 manager was a few weeks ago. If they follow his advice, because everyone doesn't, believe you me, if the 🐖 s play Fletcher and Gary Rhodes up front they will get promoted.

Cus it’s worked a treat for them in the last 3 years 😀
 
That guy is a complete moron and it’s a pity he calls himself a Blade. Bet he’s not been to a game for 50 years.
 
I know a guy who used to play football with him for Park Steels. Brian, aka Bruno, the term total wanker was invented for him
 
There's some real morons on, in no particular order, I give you.. Paul the miller, Mark the pitsmoor owl, Eckington boring blade, Mick the rawmarsh owl and of course Brian the blade. I must admit I hardly listen now, but the one that really got on my nerves was Kevin the posh sounding Barnsley blade.

From memory, the Brian in question was Brian the Miller, who’s a complete pillock in his own right (not many Benny) and his remark about the female linesman was outrageous, the presenter (Adam Oxley?) couldn’t let it go unchallenged.

I must admit, it hadn’t occurred to me that Brian the Miller might have set himself up to ridicule sexism, in the way that Johnny Speight invented Alf Garnett to ridicule racism.

It’s not even funny is it? I wonder how many times working women have heard that shit in the last forty years. Then you get people saying you can’t say that because it’s not PC’. Well, you can say it, obviously, because he did and other people do too and it’s not about being ‘PC’, it’s about not being a fucking arsehole.
 
Bless him ,it must be highlight of his evening.

He played for several local clubs at decent level, but never Stocksbridge Works (as they were known in Brian's playing days).

I've had the same thoughts about somebody taking control of the rambling old farts on here 😁

This blokes now took over from Brian the Blade and Mark the Pitsmoor Owl in boring everyone to death on RS , he's on every night talking Luton, Staveley, Penistone and Handsworth and grovelling to the presenters. It's easy enough to turn off but I live in hope somebody phones in with more than two brain cells. ;)

Only listened to it previously as I sent a wind up text. Was read out but had to endure the caller's calling in..
