absolutely no chance they finish top 6 theyve been flattered lately with a run of games against bottom half teams theyve got some tough ones coming up soon and unless they recruit at the back their gonna concede loads of goals their defence is shit
Predicting their demise hasn’t been very successful in the last couple of years. I assume they’ll finish top 6 because they are lucky bastards.
 
I listened to Radio Sheffield for the first time in a decade this morning trying to listen for snow/road updates.

They debated for the best part of an hour what was 7th on the list of "ways to keep warm in winter" (the answer was "exercise", apparently), inviting people to call in and guess what it was.

It was, quite possibly, the dullest thing I've ever heard in my life. I nearly lost the will to live.

Ive given up with it in the morning. I used to listen every day going to work. I can't do with that new woman that's on now. Sorry don't know her name. Total drivel.

I've given up too, Terrible stuff bar football heaven, though that can be repetitive, toby foster is unbearable, stuttering along all afternoon, feel sorry for his affliction, but surely they can do better
 
For some Wokie reason they've foisted some of the most pathetic screaming schoolgirls on this slot. The one at the moment sounds like she's talking to her dumb schoolmates about the class hunk. Talk about the Peter Principle.
 
As someone who doesnt live in South Yorkshire and has heard other 'local football programmes' not only is FH up there with, if not the best of them, it provides a link with 'home and the Blades'.

Regarding bias, even if there is any im not sure it's intentional as the couple of times I've called in I've got on. My guess is there are many more pig fans calling and at the minute that might be down to how well we r doing. We like to moan and there isn't a lot to moan about at the minute!!! So if u want to address the balance call in.

One tip if u listen through the BBC Sounds app it has a 20 secs fast forward button that means you can wizz through the like of Brian and Elvis !

I thought The Peter Principle was “you can’t knock Wendy”?

Only kidding Pete!
 
I put FH on most nights and usually enjoy it. Sometimes I end up switching off but that depends on the subject matter and callers.

The FH presenters do a good job for me. I don’t care who they support really as long as they’re fair, which I think they are.

The only thing that really bugs me, and causes me to turn off regularly, is this new trend of making every sentence sound like a question (raised/upward inflection that we seem to have inherited from Americans via media). It really bugs me. Everyone seems to be doing it. I think I’m going to have to move abroad.

'Wokie'? Fcks sake man stop watching gbeebies 🤣. Anyway I'm not sure what's worse, the screaming schoolgirls or someone like Toby Foster who's as funny as a fart in a spacesuit and sounds like he's talking whilst being tortured.

Move to the US. That'll learn you.

(Not that I think your assertion that we've inherited high rise terminals from the Americans is correct)
 
Where did we get it from?
I could bore you and everyone else about this. It's kind of a specialist subject for me, but while the prevalence of Australian (AQI = Australian Questioning Intonation) and Californian (more specifically than US in general) media may have acted as an amplifier, the research shows more that it's social and interpersonal factors, e.g. inclusivity and collaborative communication, in essence, people's willingness to accept that they might not be right about everything and being more open to inviting alternative narratives.

Stephen Fry got some milage out of it, though the interviewer, who studied linguistics, puts forth the more sociological argument to an extent.

That's interesting. I think on many occasions it's not so much people's willingness to accept they might not be right, but more that they're not confident in what they're saying. Or, it's just a bad habit they've picked up.

The country's been taken over by America for years now, we even speak there horrible language! Hello or morning now becomes " hi yer"... people or folks as now become " guys" all a load of bolloxs 😂

Yeah, sorry, that's what I was meaning. That people are more wary of appearing to think they know it all.

You should probably apply some rising intonation to everything I type as while I mention research leaning towards it being more sociological, that research is (rightfully) pretty minimal. There's more important things to worry about...like whether Marsh will start this evening.

About 5 years into living in Oz, I met up with an old mate from Warrington while we were both working in HK. His first words to me were, "you sound like a right cunt"

Fair

Yeh man, we’ve gone off on a super tangent haven’t we? (Trying to sound American).

I see, seems annoying?

My kids have started doing it, it’s up there with starting a sentence with ‘So’ in my pet hates.

I remember Fry putting AQI into Room 101.

Hamlet (Act II, Scene ii), Hamlet says:
"So, oft it chances in particular men..."

Sorry. I'm being far too smart arse today. I'll bore off and watch this evening's game again as penance.
 



The only time I listen to Radio Sheffield is in the car taking our lass to work, every morning I have to suffer that Ellie woman with the fake Sheffield accent wittering on about how poorly Duggie her Pug dog is. Take the little bastard to the vet for the final solution and save me from having to listen to that shit every morning and perhaps get a life and de flea your home.
