    I have to agree with whoever said Garreth O` Callaghan and also Tony Fenton (he palys the same songs every day- The Corrs, U2 etc).

    But the worst has to be "Joe and Keith" on the breakfast slot on Spin 103.8.

    They try really hard to be funny but they fail miserably.....

    their sketches are hilariously crap......:rolleyes:

    Orange pilled.

    Thats what I like about this Country ... the fact that we can have an opinion about whatever.... Andrew fair dues to you for sticking up for a fellow presenter or x- fellow presenter.... That said Burchill must be doing ok according to the last 2 JNLR results, the breakfast show received massive listenership figures.

    But cucullan is entitled to his or her opinion. And my vote goes to Tony Fenton too....

    Anyone remember DJ slobby from Pulse? Oh dear oh dear.

    I don’t want to enter into a debate about TippFM because I don’t work there anymore BUT the truth is that they are enjoying great Listenership Figures at the moment so they need to commended on that.Congrats to my ex-colleagues.

    As far as people being allowed an opinion -OF COURSE I’m all for opinions and free speech but I never see posts about Postmen being bad at delivering Post or Threads entitled “Bad Truck Drivers “ …My Point is this Live and Let Live.

    If you don’t like the TippFM Breakfast show TURN IT OFF If you don’t like Tony Fenton TURN HIM OFF.

    Relax!! I don't like Tony Fenton, but I'm sure he's a hardworking, industrious and generally sound guy. It's just when I hear him on the radio, it makes me want to pull my nails out - so I don't listen to him. But if someone asks me "who is the worst DJ ever" I would say "tony fenton". Doesn't mean that I want him to be pulled out of Today FM and shot, just that I don't like listening to him.

    Search is enabled again, you should have no problem finding millions of these threads!!! :)

    thats why boards is fun, cause you can come on here and give out about the things you don't like.


    EDIT: statement withdrawn, so my comments on withdrawn statement withdrawn :) /EDIT


    ok, this is none of my business anyway :D but if you want to enjoy boards.ie, IMO, you have to take your own advice - don't read what you don't like.

    Well you need to take a better look around then. For instance, here's a few threads about postmen being bad at delivering post:

    Postman plod problem

    An Post have gone to hell in the past month ...
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2054855639

    I can't find anything specifically titled "Bad Truck Drivers" but they're often given out about on the Motors board here:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=&f=47

    Admittedly the individuals involved aren't usually named personally, but then again they're not in the public eye like someone on the radio or TV would be.
    If you don’t like the TippFM Breakfast show TURN IT OFF If you don’t like Tony Fenton TURN HIM OFF.
    And what if I'm in a shop or getting my hair cut or on the bus and they're tuned to something I don't like, what do I do then? Block my ears?

    The two gimps on FM104 in the mornings, with the kids in the cars etc. I cant stand them and only have to endure them as some no-mark in the office insists on having it on.

    The strawberry alarm clock. I think these guys can be funny at times. Matt Molloy is a legend and some of the other sketches are good. They do play the same crap songs the whole time though. Kids in the car is stupid alright.

    Have to say .... actually a big fan of the Strawberries .... good laugh not taken seriously ....

    Worst DJ for me is those two in the morning (can't remember names ... I think I had surgery to have them removed from my head they're so bad!) on Q102. The girl has some kinda Oz accent and they're both painfull to listen to!! They attempt funny and sometimes even draft in "Electric Eddie" (Time for a name change me thinks!!) for more painfull and embarressing attempts! No.1 for me!

    I had the "pleasure" of contacting Electric Eddie for some business that I was doing for him a while ago. I rang his mobile one day and I asked if he was ok to speak, he acutally said to me "Well, I'm actually out shopping with my family but sure keep it rolling there John..."

    God help his missus when he comes home from work, "Hi Honey..... its Electric Eddie here!"

    Ruth Scott is terrible!

    I'm not a fan of Whelan in the mornings either. He'd be better suited taking Ruth's place in the late afternoon, with somebody younger taking the morning slot, and no, not Ruth! :)
