Alan Brazil on Talksport 7/9/15So where is he? Didn't hear him say anything about a holiday or anything. Danny Kelly on most of last week & now this. If my memory serves me right, what made me sit up was when they were talking about the EU referendum (can't recall why) and that he said that he was favouring leaving the EU. I thought, you shouldn't really be saying that Without an explanation of his absence (that I'd heard anyway) I wondered if he was on gardening leave

Talks crap, never listens to guests, no prep, always pulls a sicky and only renowned for drinking and gambling. Never understood why they see this arrogant man as the talksport messiah. It's no coincidence he headlines H & J 'clips of the week'. Thought Danny Kelly was only a late call for last Friday and Brazil planned holiday this week. Might be wrong and hope you are right. What I will say is, both you and I had a dislike for Mr Murray - but he has changed my opinion completely. Never thought I would think or admit to that.

I probably got it wrong and it is just a holiday, shame! I've listened to Brazil for years and always liked him, but everything has a shelf life and irritation factor. It could be his time? I can cope with his failings as pointed out but the continual corporate, look at me, backslapping in joke references really grinds my gears these days. When the Coral chimps come on I usually re-tune to Absolute 80's. Also Dominic Cork & Brian Moore, Jesus, is there nobody better than them. Danny Kelly is just so superior to today's Brazil. Totally agree about Murray. Initially he just depressed me but has totally turned that around and his excellent show is one of the best listens on the station

Bad news - he is only holiday, back next week. Oh well, it was good while it lasted. No doubt we'll hear about which corporate box he'll be frequenting at which sporting event or which well known/connected person he met at which swanky bar or restaurant. Just so in tune with his listeners these days

Danny Kelly on again today (28/10/15), no idea where Brazil is? It's such a nice change to have relevant, interesting and often different discussion rather than a Rab C Nesbit/Peter York in joke, local pub type back slapping delivery of nothing much.

Another sicky from Brazil this morning. Always a nice surprise to switch on to Danny Kelly as opposed to the fumbling Mr Arrogant. Think I heard DK is in the chair again tomorrow. smiley-happy036

Think I heard DK is in the chair again tomorrow. smiley-happy036 The downside of course is it coincides with a crap guest presenter. In this case Dominic Cork. So the bonus of Danny Kelly hasn't stopped me switching stations. No Talksport for me today. Off to work soon so I'll not be back until the morning.

Can't stand all that waffle and white noise on TalkSport, I'm a committed Absolute 80's kind of bloke these days.

A good one this morning when Jason Cundy (never wrong, knows it all and the listener is always the idiot) was on and Brazil was asking Cundy about his comments that there was a cancer (not the best choice of words these days ) at Chelsea. Cundy said that he never said that (I had seen it reported that he did indeed say that) and that Brazil should get his facts right Brazil said that Cundy did say that but he wasn't having any of it. Surprisingly Brazil didn't press it although it was obvious that he didn't agree. The interview went on for a bit before Brazil said "here's what you said Jason, now what did you mean?" - the Cundy clip was played which agreed totally with Brazil's facts

Bloody irritating Brian Moore on this morning so they have to drift in to rugby chat & comparisons. Wouldn't cross the road to watch rugby so Moore is only slightly less irritating than Dominic Cork who brings in cricket chat & comparisons. Both certainly change the dial for me

Brazil at his irritating best today. And it's Brian Moore day as well, just to compound the irritation. The bozo from Coral had just come back from the Caribbean or something so they compared notes, during their usual corporate/freebie waffle, on snobby places that Joe Public would never see. Then talking about New Year, Brazil told Moore about the best place to visit? I thought that he was going to say something we could relate to? His suggestion: "The Alps" - well if the subject comes up on Xmas Day I'll certainly throw that in the mix bash

Classic this morning as Brazil asked Mark Schwarzer (Aussie but living here a long time) whether he wanted to go home or was settled here? Schwarzer said that he was settled here. Brazil (is a Brexit man I think?) said that he didn't want to get political but was Schwarzer happy living here being part of the EU? It was the dump button and adverts before Brazil had finished the sentence

As for the weekend warm ups, how awful are they. Especially Richardson and Ford (most annoying girly giggle) - the most boring, pointless show ever. Bring back Jonny Vaughan, that was funny.

More warm down really. Certainly an electricity saver. How the hell did Richardson & Ford get the gig? Absolute tripe.

More warm down really. Certainly an electricity saver. How the hell did Richardson & Ford get the gig? Absolute tripe. Agree completely. Thought Rushden & Glendenning was pointless and boring but Richardson & Ford is awful. I'm too nice to diss on Twitter - although gets more tempting when they promote their Podcast. H & J podcast's are a Saturday 10pm saviour. Vaughan for me was brilliant. Butch Willykins, Mexican handbags etc... So funny. Although understand his pace was too much for some - Andy Jacobs being one.

Some light at the end of the tunnel. The Two Mikes doing Saturday morning now. They may not be everyone's cup of tea but they make me laugh instead of cringe so that's progress

Jeez, Jim White. That voice is really starting to grate. Just heard them saying the same things about Dimitri Payet over and over. Turned over to radio Cambs talking about shopping, yes Talksport was that bad.
Radio Cambs started of with Always on my Mind by PSB (opened my mum's funeral. Ironic as she was a BBC Cambs listener) and is now playing Bad Company. That's so much better than talk about an overpaid overrated French footballer on Hammers FM bang-head-on-wall

You'll not see nothing like the biased Quinn
Jeez he does get on my nerves when he's got his blinkers on.
He was rattling on about Newcastle this morning when Brazil asked him if he was bothered about the rapidly improving Leeds United? (now as a Leeds fan I thought that this'll be interesting).
In usual fashion, Quinn continued to rattle on about Newcastle without answering the question or mentioning Leeds at all - the bloke should stand for parliament.

Every time parlour says fight, he pronounces it 'fart' - made clips of the week last Friday. Bad news is useless Brazil is back for the Cheltenham pi$$ up and the Two Mikes are away all week
