What he said wouldn't surprise me at all. TBH can't understand what is going on , whatever it is at the end of the day if all goes tits up then there is nobody else to blame but the board.

Newmarket,

I think that we are in ‘violent agreement’ regarding John a.k.a Virgil. I too abort when I discover that it’s his turn for his personal ramblings.

The man is so self obsessed and conceited it irritates me.

When this fat bloke constantly chews food, and swigs beer like a drunken sailor during the three way discussion between him and the two brothers he looks like a camel that has been served its last meal. He continually interrupts callers and is embarrassingly rude and annoying.

Message to Nick and Gary: if this baboon has survived this long as some form of circus amusement the entertainment, at least for me, has worn intolerably thin.

Get rid.

Not a fan then :lol:

I think he works as part of the phone in show and I don’t dislike him personally.
I just don’t enjoy listening to his solo stuff .

Bit like Paul Weller :D

Newmarket,

I need to take a leaf out of your book more often as I clearly came across as having a personal grudge rather than an observational opinion. Obviously, I don’t know the bloke and I am guilty of black cab driver generalisation. must take more care in the future to avoid that.

I watched C&B on Sunday which was enjoyable; HOWEVER, the camel has died and John has now moved on to his next impression of a food deprived Alpaca munching away as if his life depended on it. I also noticed that his volume is much louder than the other two. I get the impression that that his previous semi for Moyes is beginning to stiffen.

I have never met the bloke but instinctively feel that I would not like to take a ride in his taxi or have a 1:1 drinking session because I suspect that we would not get along.

A recent chat between young John , of whom I’m not personally his greatest fan , and the elder wiser Nigel Kahn who I have had the pleasure of meeting a couple of times back on the boats whilst trying to keep Gonzo awake .

This is a particularly good and very different opinion on the whole Tim Steidten thing .
It even makes sense so this is well worth a listen whilst you’re pottering about the house (1h20m) and I recommend it.

I watched the first two minutes Tim. Didn't need to see more. He's spot on. Moyes is stealing a fucking living.
