You left out the important part in your post.

In your opinion.

If today's show is a demonstration of "the flimsiest of talent", I'd take it all day every day.

Talent just like the current 'presenters'??
Ronan is a proper DJ....most radio fans can relate to him.

Wouldn’t go that far Bee, but time to bring the curtain down in my opinion.

Ronan was with RTE Radio 2 from the start in 1979 to 1985.

One of the (If not the only??) longest serving Radio 1 presenters currently on air, on a Mon - Fri basis since then.

Been listening to RC for more years than i care to remember at this stage. He had a show in the afternoons, not sure was it rte 1 or 2. Be happy to see him going on for a few years yet.

We should all send in a request for him - for fun

As Ronan is a Contractor, he can go on as long as RTE want him, or as long as he wants to.

Soon as i heard that great simon crowe drum roll intro into the opening riff of Lookin after No.1, i sensed it was going to be a good show today.

No Losty, it I’m thinking of texting in for the double roundy as that cohort seems to be the fan base.

Few bars of The Boys from the County Armagh maybe would be good.

Neil reminds me of the guy or a younger friend you might know....who you talk with about music/radio, to the lay man they would come across as knowing his stuff .......but is really a bluffer.

If Neil was not a resercher on Ray Darcy show...he would not be on the radio presenting his own shows or filling in for Ronan Collins.

Didn't know he was a researcher on the farcy show. That explains a lot...

Ronan back on Monday. Thanks be to God.
