Today FM Megathread Mod warning post #1 / #1401

The Parish priest

The Today fm ceo has announced major changes are coming in 17...Any predictions ? My guess cormac and daniella for breakfast, Chris and Ciara for mid morning and Ian Dempsey goes to drive time

Mod:
Yes there has been made some accusations against a presenter and no you can't discuss them because everything you post about the subject can, and will, be held against boards (and yourself if they decide to sue you) as libel until proven in court basically. Sucks for us but such are the laws of Ireland and unlike major news papers boards do not have an standing army of attorneys to deal with such legal cases. Hence a whole lot of deleted posts and bringing up the subject until further notice will lead to cards and bans.

Did anyone hear the replacement for Neil Delamere's show... Sunday Brunch (expect channel 4 will have something to say about that) with Susan Keogh.
Didn't hear much but it sounded to be very much the same show as before just different presenter

Is this official?

Muireann OConnell really needs to read this article.

TheJournal.ie: 'I'm sickened by the D4/ mid-Atlantic/ makey-up English accent that is blighting Ireland'

I’m sure she’ll find it AMAZING and WONDERFUL...... followed by an exaggerated intake of breath and then a fake laugh that goes on forever.
Okay DUDES!!!!!!

Joe Donnelly in for the week in place of Dermot & Dave, it sounds like.

Just what I need to go back to sleep after the long weekend.

I'm guessing Susan Keogh is getting primed to take over from Matt Cooper? She covers for Cooper and is involved alot more during the news slot. The same happened when Paul Mcloone was taking over from Tom Dunne. McLoone was his side kick for a time

I really hope you're wrong about this. She's a lightweight and barely adequate as a stand-in. It's a disgrace that the station's boycott of the Irish Times is ongoing. Hugh Linehan was a far superior stand-in. Even Gavin Reilly was better and I found him a bit bland.

Bland is what is required these days. The job is to forward the current orthodoxy in a non controversial manner. Doesn't make good radio but that is not the point.

Any idea why he did it?

Anyone else think Dave Davin would be a great addition to the Today FM schedule? Great voice and delivery. I like him on SPIN's "Top 40 Oifiguil na hEireann"

To do with data mining and data leaks actually.

Matt was just trying to be down wi' the kids!

I'm starting to dislike the music section now. That girl who basically spends her time slagging off acts she doesn't like is starting to grate on me. Does she realise music is subjective?

I'd like to hear about some new music to listen to

not to hear about cover albums and concerts by over the hill bands

A couple of years ago Matt couldn't see past Rush as the greatest band in the world :pac: Now he's so cool he's unbearable. Every time I listen to the music slot I'm reminded of Chocolate Daddy.

3 new online stations announced including return of TXFM?

Radio group Communicorp is launching three music streaming services – Today FM 80s, Today FM 90s and Today XM – as part of a bid to increase its online audience.

Today FM and, to some extent, its owner Communicorp have come in for some criticism on this forum over the years. Some of it may well be justifiable, but at least they are coming up with something new and taking account of the changes in the way people use technology and, vitally, how people listen to music or radio.

Diversifying and offering more choice on other platforms is, undoubtedly, the way forward. The organisation is showing signs that it is welling to embrace change. Who knows? This could possibly ensure that radio has a future.

any chance they'd pay the money and put them on the saorview radio stations on the tv?

They seem to have let Muireann off the lease today because she's playing mostly old songs so far on the show. It's a breathe of fresh air compared to the usual playlist.

I noticed Joe played a few classics too

statto25

Ian seemed to play some older stuff too

Fergal D'Arcy just made a Neil Prendeville on a plane joke.
Obviously he didn't mention the name but everyone knew what he meant.
