Bennet/Walker/Giddins

[TonyAgana]

Cockney?????????

Unless they amplified Bow Bells to the level of a very loud Megadeath concert in the fifties and the sound travelled as far north as Luton you are so very, very wrong!

But then, not the first time!

He won't get that, SEB.

I haven't listened to Radio Hallam since the days of Ray Stewart Kelly Temple and Colin Slade but I'm going back after listening to those 3 retarded wankers after tonights game. Obviously never kicked a ball between them ever ,the arrogance with which they spoke over United fans tonight was unbelievable. Cotterill must have turned them down for interviews at some stage ,but Evans who is the same age and also an international and cost more money must be sucking them off. Boycott this earache of a Radio pregramme if possible.

I wasn't feeling too bad on leaving the ground. We'd done better than I expected and we'd played some half decent stuff.

The Rad sheff morons had me absolutely fuming before I got home, the missis thought we'd lost by 5 or 6 the mood I got home in. What a set of knob jockeys they are.
I was all for pulling over and ringing up when he came out with the "how many shots did he have" bollocks. And then the defense of Evans for being young and still learning the game whilst Cotts is an international who should be far more consistent. TWATS.

5 live for me from now on.

 

[matth]

Even my missus fumed at it, and she's a Ram.

Dreadful programme full of dreadful, big-headed presenters. "End of", as that fat sack of shit would say.

 

[TonyAgana]

The only thing I can see the "end of" is reasoned debate.

 

[matth]

I can't remember hearing any reasoned debate on there whilst these clowns have been on. Any views that don't exactly mirror their own (whether these are correct or not) are shot down. If you listen to any other football phone in, be it 606 or one of the regional BBC phone ins, it's amazing how much more about the opinions of the callers they are rather than the hosts of the show.

While ever they are winning little trophies they'll carry on doing what they do. Time to switch off for good.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

So Bob Jackson has finished then? When did that happen?

 

[Come from away]

Stuck out here there is not much choice in order to get some feedback, but they seem to take all their soccer info from Edwards who, once he's decided a player is good or bad just keeps circling on the same point. Wish we had a better option but think I'm stuck.

Agreed, but Cotterill is f*cking w*nk.

 

[Santos]

I get his point on Cotterill, as many many people seem to put him on a pedestal, but crucify others for similar faults.

Very, very poorly made point though, there were much more constructive and sensical ways of putting across that he thinks people over-rate Cotts.

Radio Sheffield have brought the current situation on themselves though, they've encouraged extremist views, shit stirred and filtered calls for a long time in order to make the programme more "interesting" and controversial... Now they seem to think its gone too far that way and are very poorly trying to get some balance back, going about it all the wrong way.

Agree. They can start off by not giving any more airtime to that plum Brian the Bellend for starters. They almost seem fed up of talking to him when he's on - so why bother in the first place - i can only imagine it is because they barely get any callers.

I think 'Football Heaven' has run its course. Is there really enough news, callers & listeners from all the local clubs to warrent a one hour show every week day then a 3 hour phone in? Of course there are times when it's great, I remember listening just before Robson got the boot and it was interesting stuff but really, most of the time there is only so many times you can listen to an argument about Ched Evans, Akpo Sodje's knee injury, Chesterfield's chairman being evil or Mark Robins or Sean O'Driscollzzzzzzzz witter on about a slight thigh strain to some no mark player.

Should probably cut it down to Monday & Friday only and special shows when something newsworthy happens (managerial sacking for instance) although I guess that would play havoc with the schedule. Never happen though as it'll probably put one of them out of a job.

 

[Muttley]

Time to bring Sir Robert Jackson out of retirement.

 

[cooperblade]

Nail on the head. They're all in awe of Edwards and take his opinion as being the gospel truth.

I don't know why Edwards bothers going when he already knows who will play well and who won't.

When Evans scored at Scunthorpe he sounded devastated and said 'he might get his finger out now'.

He almost hates Evans and Cotterill as much as he did Kabba.

Classic Edwards..."I don't want to be negative, but..." He's a prat of the highest order, still bitter that he's never been given the job at SUFC.

 

[judge]

i didnt listen to the show last night but i have to say in general i agree with their stance wasnt that long ago the dingles were refusing to be interviewed by them ,so i guess its just natural to defend the managers

imagine how it would look if someone phoned in saying the manager was useless and they agreed with them ?

they would be outcasts

 

[Wards]

I may actually listen tonight just to see how bad it's become. I switched of long ago but fancy a chuckle.

They don't have to agree but they are trying to defend the indefensible- last nights garbage from Bennet and Walker was just pathetic!
Weeks ago we were 6th and they kept harping on about Unitedites ringing in to complain that they were poor no it appears we are in transition and that Blackwell has his hands tied etc etc
Dont defend him Radio Sheffield - the programme is a medium for fans to express their views not for Walker, Bennett and Giddings to pontificate on how little they know about football!

 

[judge]

put yourself in their shoes though ,one controversial comment about a local manager could see them out of a job

plus if they just agreed with every call it wouldnt be much of a show would it

i think in general they handle the calls very well and given the large number of numptys that ring in i think thats quite an achievement

 

[Linz]

plus if they just agreed with every call it wouldnt be much of a show would it

But why do they have to offer their opinions at all?

Surely the people offering their opinions are the callers and they are just the vehicle to facilitate this?

Does anyone actually listen in to hear the opinions of Walker/Bennett/Giddings... who most of the time, weren't at the actual games they ramble on about?

I've said it before, the best football phone ins are the ones were you hear very little of the presenter and an awful lot from eloquent people who were actually at the game. None of this "I wasn't at the game but..." business from either the callers or the presenters.

If you don't stir up trouble, you don't attract trouble.

 

[Fiery Blade]

I agree that there are far too many numpties given airtime including Brian the Blade, majority of Dingle Fans etc Walker, Bennett and Giddings have appointed themselves oracle of all things football related in South Yorkshire.
I had time for Walker but he appears to have lost it now as for the other two Bennett- stick to ice hockey and Giddings well just bugger off you sanctimonious git!

it wouldnt be much of a show if they didnt offer an opinion

both sets of fans in sheffield accuse them of being biased to the other team
all south yorks football fans accuse them of being biased towards the sheffield clubs

ive been listening to the show for a few years ,mostly on my way home from work and the ammount of padding they have to do to fill the show out is ridiculous

also the ammount of decent callers is also ridiculous

i think it will be a real shame if the show gets cut because theyre are not enough people ringing in

maybe some of us should start ringing in and have a debate with them

some of the posters on here seem articulate enough not to get drowned out by the presenters

You can't argue with a fader, Judge.

If they want to cut you off then they will, make no mistake. If they disagree with you they will chop you off quicker than you can say "Seth takes it up the ass. From Paul and Andy."

Not that I am suggesting he does, oh dear me no. I mean, look at him. Even if you were a fully paid up member of the Nice Nails Club you wouldn't shag Seth.

 

[jpblade]

The 3 clowns on Radio Sheffield re complete no nowts. Perhaps if they paid to watch our garbage week in week out they would grumble rather than being paid money from our licence fee to watch it.

a lot of people who do phone are more intelligent than these 3 tea cakes and as soon as they start to lose the argument out comes the plug. Stick to the match of the day round up Mr Walker and let the fans who know something about football have their say.

decent callers have had enough... and now you have to argue with one sometimes more presenters if you offer a dissenting argument. like someone else said, we've dropped from 6th to 15th in a manner all of us could see coming and no one is allowed to criticise mccabe, blackwell or the presenters view on who should be in the team. its crap.

I think Edwards is an excellent summariser. Watching United over last 2 years has been for the most part like watching paint dry - and Edwards says it how it is.

 

[Stafford Blade]

I listened about 10 minutes of it tonight. People were making valid negative points about Blackwell and the arguments that came back from Bennett were pathetic. Part of me wonders if fatty arbuckle is simply playing devils advocate to create discussion. But I think it's more likely he is an opinionated arrogant chuff!

 

[Mary Christmas]

This has all been very interesting to me which is a surprise because I found Football Heaven totally disinteresting from the outset. Two people to have had a positive mention are Peter Jackson and Keith Edwards. Sorry - not for me. Peter Jackson thought he was the Holy Trinity (which I suppose is slightly better than it now being shared by the three turds) and good old Keith "at this moment in time" Edwards has more faces than Big Ben - he can turn more in his commentaries than he ever could when playing.

 

[bladeinlondon]

He gets game after game of no shows, yet Cotterill (who I think would benefit from a run) gets no real runs at all. But then again, Ched's 20 and Cotterills...err...

To be fair, I'd agree he's improving. But I'd have to put him in the shite category so far. He really needs to offer more. Maybe I'm being harsh, but I keep asking his supporters to tell me one aspect of his game that looks strong. I keep getting no response. I don't expect the finished article.

UTB

He does run unlike ched who just stands there!

 

[judge]

the reason cotterill doesnt get a run is because apart from a few cameos off the bench he has been shit
