      Just reading around. D'Arcy must be seriously feeling the pressure. Random celebrities having punts at him for the Strang interview, and every other media source calling his interview with Strang a wasted opportunity, and now Drico has a pot shot at him for being a Lunster fan. After the weekend he's had, I'd say he's only grateful that Enda didnt call him out at the Ard Fheis for not leaving the country five years ago.

      Ray is RTE managements €30,000,000.00 mistake, action needs to be taken now, oversight on this hiring and associated hirings needs to be publicly reviewed, the Licence fee payers deserve as much.

      Ray; he is talking about you.
      looks like it would be safe to assume its Ray alright and Hector. ever since Ray has fawned over BOD when ever he had him on either show. Lick arse

      BOD certainly hammered him. I remember how Darcy used to go on like that too.

      So that's a couple of 'celebs', an actor, and now a sporting superstar taking pop shots at him over the last few days. That's pretty unprecedented. (edit: yeah, what Peter said above)

      He needs to let somebody help him by writing his questions for the interviews. I know normally this wouldn't work as a guest could go off on a tangent during questions. But this won't matter as Ray doesn't follow flow he rigidly sticks to the questions. Dean Strang could have said " well Ray truth be known, I actually killed Teresa Halbach myself" and Ray would respond with yeah yeah right yeah do you think he's guilty though Dean ? He was like that on today fm too he doesn't listen he's just sitting waiting to inject his opinion.

      Are we taking bets that Raymond will turn in today for his show?
      In addition to Jenny "accompanying" him to RTE he also brought Will Hanafin "with him". He qualified as a barrister. Could Ray not have talked with him about possible questions for Dean Strang?
      What is the total cost for the three amigos from the public purse?

      The rehiring of Ray & Associates = €30,000,000.00 lifetime cost to licence fee payers in salaries, costs and lost opportunities

      Yes RTE talent management BLEW €30,000,000.00 on the failure that is Ray D'arcy

      Never mind, it's not their cash, the licence fee payers will cough up

      He can't even get the phone number for the show right, how hard can it be, if he's brutal with numbers why doesn't he have a piece of paper in front of him with the numbers, complete joke.

      Until such time as the winners decide to go public the media should lay off.

      Where's this €30 million figure coming from?? I know you promised to calculate and put it up here. That's crazy money, so you need to justify the claim if you keep making it!! :)

      Plenty of media people browse here, I'm not detailing the breakdown for free.

      Let the papers or whomever have an 'expert' figure the costs I'll wager they won't be far off €30,000,000.00

      Ah come off it :)

      I know who won the Lotto at the weekend but I'm not detailing it for free.

      I also know who will win the upcoming election and the Gold Cup etc etc

      The eejit makes a smart comment when asked if a lotto ad would be ok, but yet he spent the opening 15 minutes going on about it trying to track the winner down.

      The man has no self awareness.
