We don't truly appreciate things until they're gone.

Hope this isn't the start of Clive bring sidelined. Ever since Rob Gurney came back he's on less and less.

Yeah what the hell was that all about? Fanboys and Fangirls all over the place getting asked for their input when half of them haven’t been to the match! Absolute dross.

CWR sport is developing into a circus. Nothing wrong with it before, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I thought their Fancast was ex players being interviewed etc which I assume can be an interesting listen depending on who’s being interviewed. But someone talking about Wilson’s arse,,,,,,where’s the off button?

Gurney seems to be held in brilliant repute, probably because of the Gurno mix. He was doing my head in after the game on Saturday.

Yes, Clive and Oggy did a decent job. With so many BBC reporters getting the chop in the shake up, how come they needed to add another sports commentator when the existing 2 were fine.

Did Clive commentate Saturday?
I'm sure he got on our train on the way home.

Pretty sure he was doing the commentating. Thought it was strange though when he mentioned walking up with the fans so assumed he had been on the train. Isn't he allowed in the radio car now?

Like animals at the circus. Motorbikes are exciting, but I much prefer lions.

I don’t understand what the point was in bringing Gurney back, Clive is much better. Gurney sounds bored and fed up half the time.

I love Clive. I respect Rob Gurney as he is a city fan, but Clive was covering the club in the darkest of times and did a superb job and he should be the main man still. Having Rob back is great but he should be below Clive in the pecking order.
Tonights show was not good at all. Far too much giggling.

I went through a spell years ago when I couldn’t stand Clive however his partnership with Oggy over recent years has been great.

Clive makes mistakes as we all know however nobody can fault his commitment and enthusiasm- especially when hearing back his commentary on some of our goals.

Also, not afraid to call out callers when they are talking complete crap

I listened tonight and though it was awful to be honest - people giving opinions having been to hardly any games.

I’d rather listen to ‘reasons to be cheerful‘ or ‘give me 5‘ than that dross.

Was the phone in on Monday replaced with the fancast?
Fair play for trying something new with the fancast, and I'm guessing it's to attract younger listeners, but it just sounds like one of those podcasts where everyone is laughing at everything just to add a bit of atmosphere. Just feels a bit forced

To be fair, when it was Clive and Oggy, they'd go to Martin Winch for his mid match thoughts instead

Really? He never offered anything insightful, and it felt like they were simply providing him that small window as a sop for doing the driving and carrying all the recording equipment.

Clive is a far better commentator than Gurney.

Zero hours, probably.

I do enjoy Clive’s commentary, though - Rob sounds as flat as a hangover these days.
