    You said a few posts back, that you would be switching to the hospital radio because he was on it.Now you say he is not for you? Things must be bad when they had to bring him back,all that shouting and roaring in the morning.Maybe Aaron will be next;)

    Tipp FM have a good section on their website showing a map of local electoral areas and info on the candidates running and the number of seats in each electoral area.

    they still have the same old jingle "where are ya mac?" And he still loves the sound of his loud voice. Good switching off time

    I can't bear Tony's Shades of Green show. Make sure you say you're from somewhere outside of Tipp and he'll mention you.

    Heavy promos all the time just puts it too far and takes away from the quality of discussion.

    If I was a candidate in any of the electoral areas I'd be pretty pissed off at the way these pages are laid out.

    How was it decided which candidates made it to the picture page for each area, this is showing a bias towards those particular candidates, intentional or not.

    If you're going to have pages like this you should endeavour to be fair and impartial to all candidates.

    To put it mildly its's a clusterfluck of ineptitude.

    I would venture to guess that any candidate who submitted a photo by a certain deadline had it published.

    If any candidate has an issue with this website they can have recourse to the Broadcasting Authority and they should do so.

    The Electoral Commission may also have a role to play if there is unfairness involved.

    My guess is that certain candidates did not submit a photo before a deadline.

    It was said today that 6 candidates would not/could not take part in debate. Maybe that is why their pics are not there? I don't know how many are missing.Edit I do not see any photos at all

    Hi all, I'm new here, I felt I had to add my two penny's worth..

    I think he's great, (no I'm not his mam/dad) there's no airs and graces about him, the word on the street is he is very popular, Do I think himself and the girl gel, no not really, but he's great with the public and that at the end of the day will bring the listeners and in turn the revenue, but I guess the JNLR will tell more.

    The reason I joined Boards, was I came across this thread by accident, and thought it was all very negative, so because I say something positive you automatically presume I'm related!!!! I was lead to believe that boards was an open form, that positive opinions can be given also, was I wrong.....

    Good coverage on Tipp FM on the local election count from what I can see. Can't understand the speed with which people are on to knock the station. Are there ex presenters with an axe to grind posting here by any chance or am I just paranoid :-)
