    Who Will or Rick?



    I'm a big fan or Rick...used to really enjoy his old slot in the evenings with Ruth Scott .... but can't remeber if she was on before or after him now....it's been a few years! And he's an old Ballyfermot head as well...which makes a big difference! ;)

    He's a middle aged man that acts like he's still in his 20's, and he thinks he's funny and cool, but I find him neither.

    Jesus give him some credit - no-one could be that bad!
    In fairness he's a sound bloke and doesn't talk half the sh1te some of his colleagues do and at least he's reasonably intelligent unlike Bimbo Hayes.
    I don't think he acts like he's in his twenties, he acts like he's in his mid thirties and has some reasonable knowledge of what's going on around him.

    Used to listen to the 10pm show a lot, was pretty good.
    Havent really listened to the new slot but I presume it will not be as good being the day time etc..
    Shame they moved it, used to listen to him and then Dan Hegarty afterwards.
    Dan was pretty average but now and again he played some classics.

    Oh right, thought he was in his 40's. Meh, still don't like the guy.

    Although life expectancy of 75 for an Irish male, so he's just a couple of years off it!

    Spot on. If ever there was a man who desperately wanted to be hip. I like to think of him as the David Brent of Irish radio. His breakfast show with Ruth Scott was possibly the worst thing I have ever listened to.
