    I remember his first show on the licensed Nova, he was on after Peter Devlin's Saturday Setlist. I requested him a Nirvana song but he mistakenly played a Metallica one but then admitted he was only new and would do his best in future!

    Here he is on Heart FM London back in March 1996!

    Whatever you might say about his music, there's no denying his smooth voice and he always gives a professional radio performance!

    I'd be happy to see Quigley as the new MG presenter (or whatever they're going to name the show that supersedes it). But I can't shake the feeling that this is going to be a temporary measure. As Max alluded to earlier, I sense a re-brand is lurking around the corner. Once it's been rolled out, my money is on Ruth Scott to be unveiled as the new morning jock.

    Sadly its just wishful thinking on my part..but with Hayes at the helm he'll be looking after his "buddies" me thinks....
    They'll probably go down the duo (yawn) route for the morning...why this format is so common is beyond me...

    I'm actually sad to see Marty & Conor go. I know Marty tries too hard but his heart is in the right place. Conor is an excellent presenter IMO. On the other hand I find Quigley and his little anecdotes very trying.

    I'd say you're right. Scott plus one (Courtenay perhaps?)

    Dunno when I've heard Paul Brady on Nova last but hearing Busted Loose was very nice! One of the country's unsung greats.

    It looks like it's official now, folks. Morning Glory is well and truly no more. They've taken down Conor and Marty's profile from Nova.ie. Its show listings now reads 'Breakfast on Radio Nova' with no presenter(s) mentioned. This reinforces my belief that Quigley is only keeping the seat warm for the moment.

    No presenter listed for "Saturday Nights" either. Kieran McGuinness from Delorentos does the show most weeks.

    As a fan of JC's Sunday show, I really hope he doesn't move, the frivolous nonsense that seems to happen on most breakfast shows would seriously detract from what he's good at; playing really good music. I just can't see it happening though, I reckon he was only having a laugh on Sunday, there's probably a bit of speculation going about based on what I've seen here. Given Ruth Scott has filled in before, and that she's a high profile name (are Nova still trying to go national?), I'd say she'll be given the gig. And good luck to her!

    JC ain't going to the breakfast show. It was a totally tongue in cheek comment on Sunday. Think he is happy where he is playing exactly what he wants......which wouldn't be welcome on the breakfast show.

    The whole breakfast show thing annoys me..why do stations feel the need to bombard listeners with so called "comedy" acts....I just want decent music, traffic reports and news...simple really...when the feck..fcuk off....

    It looks like Miller is taking over Greg Gaughran's slot. He confirmed it on Twitter this evening. I didn't see that one coming. Gaughran has been hosting that show since Nova's inception.
