Hope he is gone. He ruined cwr this year as has that woman Bailey. It was way better when it was just Clive and Oggy and no idea why they got rid of Clive. Oggy won't hang around Mark my words. He liked Clive. Gurney i can tell annoys him

Gurney was good In the 90s. Clive upped the level though but Gurney now seems to have regressed to amateur levels. What puzzled me is he wasn't working on Tuesday but was sat by Oggy at Stadium Of Shite.

I believe, two of the most important games at the end of the season and he couldn't spare us a few hours.

Shows commitment that does.

He was there at Stadium of Shite. He posted a pic on X sat next to Oggy. As he wasn't working i assume he paid for his ticket

Whole thing seems way off to me. It all sounded very forced and awkward . I wonder if eakin and Gurney have had a major fall out. CWR have had their Robins Viveash moment of sorts.

The Rob Gurney fan boy approach to talking to Oggy is a bit silly for a professional presenter.

Clive on the other hand sounds like he doesn’t care whether they like him or not he will ask the same questions anyway.

He would have used his press card. Which would allow access into the press box.

I’m not sure that’s how it works. There are not unlimited press places. If he used his press card he did so on behalf of the bbc.

Yes so he would need to have been allocated one by the bbc despite not working that night.

I personally don’t have an issue with that.

Spare a few hours? His newborn baby is in Coventry but you expect to just drop everything and travel 4 hours to Sunderland to show some kind of commitment? Sure you would be delighted if you were on leave at work and all your colleagues slagged you off for not popping in to show how loyal you are

I think Rob's match commentary is good, and although I already miss Clive, I'd still listen to CWR.
He just needs to not get sucked into the negativity with the callers after the games when we lose, Clive was a lot more impartial and was a bit of a counter to Rob by mentioning positives

No they haven't, like I said before it is BBC cuts to local media, that's it.

My personal view is that the BBC get their funding allocation the wrong way around, and should spend more on local media and news and less on light entertainment.

You are dead right but not sure you could cut the daytime schedules any more - basically just 2 weekday shows come from Coventry and the afternoon show is shared with Radio WM and is probably one of the most abysmal things you could ever listen to. The presenter is a halfwit and so must the audience be.

BBC CWR outside of the football (and sometimes during) is really just Mid Morning Matters

Whole thing needs looking at. Small internet service tax, fund local and national news and quality broadcasting properly. The two things the BBC does really well is train talent and report news. The rest I can take or leave.
