Liverpool supporters on 606

[Leo No.8]

Now I know one of our regulars was on there the other day and this isn't aimed at Anny Road (I actually caught him on there on my way back to ours with a curry), but f*ck me coming home from the match last night they seemed to put on an endless stream of Liverpool supporters who were struggling to string two words together, or were making absolutely ridiculous points.

 

You'd think they'd try to start it off with someone coherant - you get this beaut on saying 'we don't play down the middle enough, we always play out to the wings and it's terrible to watch, look at tonight's game. We can only play it down the middle when Stevie G is in the team, not like all the other teams like Arsenal who can..'. WTF? I wouldn't even know where to start with that sh*te.

 

Then the tone for the night was there were loads of Liverpool supporters on moaning about the game saying stuff like 'we won't beat Chelsea playing like that', we could have done much better etc etc.

 

WE RESTED HALF THE F*CKING TEAM YOU BRAINLESS D*CKHEADS, HOW HARD IS THAT TO UNDERSTAND? WE'D ALREADY WON THE TIE IN THE FIRST LEG FFS! ZENDEN PLAYED 90 MINUTES, ISN'T THAT PROOF ENOUGH ALONE?

 

I thought they actually vet the callers before putting them on live - if so I absolutely dread to think what kind of people they were turning away. It gives a really bad name to our supporters I think, loads of people all round the country listen to that phone in and they'll all be thinking we're a bunch of imbeciles.

they do vet them though, "are you a cretin?" "no" "sorry" "are you a cretin" "yes, sack rafa, sell gerrard and reina" "excellent"

The 1st bloke on 606 was a right t***.

 

We just play it wide and cross it, its boring, why can't we play through the middle like chelsea man u and arsenal. He just repeated that sentence over and over until the sweet release of him being cut off came.

 

He was a right bellend.

[ifanew]

Wasn't there also a text or an email read out at the end from someone called Jonsey?

I think you're spot on there!

 

Stubbs seemed a bit befuddled by the type of people who were being put through to him though, I could see him making cutting signs across his neck to the producer as soon as the next caller started talking crap and trying desperately to make sense of it all...

He did - and every time I was thinking 'thank f*ck for that'...

TBH - I think that 99% of the time I listen to 606.

 

Which makes me wonder why I bother

Radio phone-ins are all appalling. The football ones being the worst.

Dunno. Daytime phone ins are pretty piss poor

[beejay]

They did have some sensible people on as well, to be fair. Stubbs tried to lead all callers on to one subject - what makes you so sure your team will win the semi? The result was that all the chelsea fans siad they would win and all the reds said we will do them again. Banal stuff.

 

One of the last callers raised the temperature a bit saying if it's a Liverpool-ManU final in Athens with 50,000 supporters of each club roaming the streets it could get very, very nasty. Sounded like a Huyton accent to me, like.

[L19red]

the first rule of phone-ins is that you must get a k****ead on as the first caller to stir it up a bit and get more callers.

They're all an excuse for loonies to air their views cos nobody else will listen to them.

 

With the occasional exception of course.

I heard him as well

Bad t**

Thought the "why can't we play like Arsenal" bit deserved to be answered with "what, season over in March and looking like you might be struggling to qualify for the champions league next season".

A bit like internet message boards.

Stubbs just couldnt be bothered with him though could he

[matty]

Any radio or TV programme which asks the opinions of the general public is s***.

 

The general public are c****.

Radio Merseyside is awful for its phone in. They rarely have people who've actually been to the match but instead "we're going to Old Swan to get the views of George. Hello, George, have you been to the game today?" "No, I haven't been since Roger Hunt played but I felt like I was there thanks to your commentary." This sort of flattery guarantees them participation and how can you possibly comment if you only went to the match and didn't listen to it from your armchair?

[Bigal]

especially with the legend as part of the phone in we have shipped 6 goals for example "jeff you are through to John Aldridge" "John I used to watch you every game and it was an honour, and we can have done with 10 of you out there today"

When we hear that, every face in the car goes

[Knoxy]

The first caller wanted us to play it through the middle, presumably to utilise the pace of Fowler and Crouch

 

If only Rafa had thought of that

but they never say, Aldo was a yard dog forward, what difference would that make?
