Do you like Tony Fenton

markyboy

In fairness, as soon as Ray is finished the mighty Tony Fenton takes over to steer us through an hour of Shamboistic friviolity!

Basq

Hate the fecker!

Roddy23

Get him off.
When did he join todayFM, thought he was with 2fm.
Not a big radiolistener, thanks to the likes of Adrian Kennedy,Gerry Ryan, and Tony Fenton...

The other day giving out a "prize"

"Yes you've won. In two hours time you're on your way to South Africa!"

Yay clap clap

"Well for the runners up, and we've been keeping this secret all day, we've a special prize for you too. You've gotten up early and made your way to the airport. Well, you're going to ..... The Isle of Man!"

In their South African holiday clothes in October Tony? Thanks for nothing!

I demand a Jaguar! I can't get radio reception at work so I don't listen to the radio during the day, hence I don't care.

I used to love Tony on the hotline years ago though.

You're the WINNERRRRRRR!

Ah the memories.

I can't stand him on the radio but in fairness, that's hardly his fault.

What the hell is going on around here?Everytime I refresh my beloved After Hours screen another crappy Irish "Celeb"gets a crappy poll he doesn't deserve.Pigheads bemused and annoyed.Can I just save time and say I don't particularly like any irish celebs apart from maybe Alan Stanfield who played George in Glenroe.Rightn i'm off to refresh my screen to see if Grainne from Bosco has got a poll yet. :rolleyes:

Hence the reason why I hate the f**ker. That "YOU'RE THE WINNNEEERRRR!" crap he used to shout on the Hotline years ago completely put me off him. That and his mid-Atlantic accent he uses. Can't stand DJ's that do that. The old Atlantic 252 was notorious for DJ's that did that, as well as having those shíte made-up names, the likes of Dusty Rhodes and Robin Banks (who can currently be heard as the voiceover on 'Mythbusters' on the Discovery Channel. Yes, it is indeed the same guy, believe it or not!). :rolleyes:

Now the likes of John Peel and Tommy Vance (what a voice!), they were proper DJ's.

Tony Fenton is also a made up name!!!!!

I cant stand him, he just pisses me off to no ends and I have no choice but to put up with him everyday in work. At least he's stopped that STUPID Man United joke thing he used to do to people who rang in.

markyboy

I'm horrified by this revelation! There's no mention of that here. It seems like the story of a simple carpenter that did well ... now where have I heard that story before?

rubadub

Hes the cocksmoker with the put on zany americanesque accent right? how does he have the nerve to ask for payment. absolute tosser

Ah yes! The man who's appearance in stories of magic and spirituality, miracles and bravery inspired us all as children i.e. Harrison Ford.

His name is really........





















Tony Fagan

markyboy

if you're going to make up a cool sounding DJ name you'd make a bit more effort! Frankie Fagan for example. Now that's the name of a DJ I'd listen to

orangerooster

Him, Tubridy, Gerry Ryan, Gareth O Callaghan and Rick O' Shea need to have nasty horrible things done to their ability to speak/walk/carry out bodily functions preferably while having "now whos the f*cking winner" screamed at them by large men.

magpie

smashy/nicey TBH

horseflesh

He's unbelievable.
Unbelievably bad that is.
Sometimes I think he can't really be serious and he's just taking the piss out of himself. He's a walking, talking parody.
And that mid-Atlantic accent........jesus wept

super_furry

Screw Tony Fenton, bring back Electric Eddie. Beat on the Street anyone?

limerick_man

Really? I didn't know that either. Another reason to hate the f**ker then, I guess! :mad:

Funny you should say that. That's the first thing that always pops into my mind when someone mentions Tony Fenton. Smashy and Nicey were just the perfect parody you could get of all those mid-Atlantic voiced, love to blow their own trumpet ("Do a lot of work for charidy, mate, but I don't like to talk about it!" :rolleyes: ), love the sound of their own (put on! :rolleyes: ) voices-type DJ's you hear on the radio. Fenton, Rhodes, Tubridy, O' Shea, Gerry Ryan, Tony Blackburn, etc., all those guys. Smashy and Nicey always pops into my mind when I hear those types of DJ's.

he's a wanker

All radio is terrible anyways. More fun catching your bollocks in a belt sander than listening to that tripe
