    Virgin Media will be on the air 28 years, also they'd get away with it as they are a private company, I doubt they are spending that kind of money, can you imagine VMTV spending 100k on promoting their news service that's like 4 months of the Six O'Clock show!

    ______

    In the end they were just greedy, they all knew one another and knew what to expect more money for no return, it was a secure cash flow, but in fairness they looked for what they wanted and fair dues to them for that, and wouldn't you be doing the same!

    Just one more thing .... when did they return that car

    Yesterday

    Now I feel old - I was at the lunch of TV3 in CHQ. They gave away a car on the night, an Alfa Romeo from memory.

    I wonder will Warfield get as much out of RTE as Adams got out of the BBC?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,082 ✭✭✭An Claidheamh


    I wonder did he go to the same school of history as our esteemed well-paid host?

    I'm sure Joe will cover a big story like this. Or would it affect his chances with a possible future employer ?

    If he was looking for good causes on what to spend any payout on I'd send him my plans for an Irish manned mission to Rockall 😂

    Today, Joe…

    Lollipop ladies (can you still say that), must finish up when they hit 70, why.

    Vandalism of tourist attractions from yesterday.

    XL bully dogs, still running wild in the country, why.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,748 ✭✭✭✭BPKS


    Another case today of Joe running with the hare and hunting with the hound today.

    XL Bully dog attacked a small dog belonging to 70 year old man.

    About a year ago, before the women in Limerick was killed by the dog, Joe was very sympathetic to a caller who was keeping a restricted breed dog in the Approved Housing Body home she was living in, against rules of tenancy. Joe was agreeing with the idea of some form of dog psychological test being done on the dog to make sure the dog or the woman wasn't thrown out of the house.

    Joe astonished by this woman pulling a 45 minute shift every morning.

    Joe would do away with medicals and sign off workers on the basis of how healthy they sound on a phonecall.

    You can tell how much an interest a subject when the only other caller they can get is the parent/child of the original caller.

    the real winners are the legal eagles, up to €5 million in legal fees for Auntie Beeb to pay off

    Children are a pain in the hole.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,667 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,463 ✭✭✭✭McDermotX


    Joe looking for a discretionary clause at the RTE

    One that magics an extra 200K a year on a new contract



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,851 ✭✭✭archfi


    Another voice diagnosis from Dr Duffy!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 812 ✭✭✭gigantic09


    There should be descretion in such situations once one is fit to do the job. I doubt people are queuing up to replace her .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,463 ✭✭✭✭McDermotX


    'Skilled with great ability"

    I'm all for them wanting to continue what they're doing, but enough with the patronising sh1t, Duffy.

    They're not curing cancer

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,123 ✭✭✭ShamNNspace


    Nothing at all of concern happening in the world these days... Joe for heavens sake don't frighten the horses, talk to some lollipop lady or about some long forgotten tragedy that happened a hundred years ago



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,748 ✭✭✭✭BPKS


    Sounds like Danny L got a good bargain for the tickets.
