    I would have loved it they'd moved the Nuacht back to 3.30pm while he was away.

    Jausys, they win one game and there's people saying how proud they are, with that eejit TD, Rock, looking for a civic reception.

    Didn't take him long to realise the word "junket" conveniently translates as "representing the government" when it suits him. If he was in opposition he would be slating politicians for going abroad to that whilst the "country is in a ledaerless Brexit crisis".

    FTR

    Twice smart arše Ray referred to Shane Ross as 'minister of finance' - (post interview but before the technical error break)

    Does anyone ever correct him?

    Jeez, Darcy really is a paid up member of the "It's your own fault if you are ill" brigade.

    'No' would appear to be the answer there, my friend.

    I dont understand. She knew that he stopped breathing on a number of occasions at night (and had to intervene herself to bring him back to life), with seven kids that they need to provide for, and never forced him to go and get checked out?

    A VW 9 seater? I'd get the emissions checked before I took it from them.

    Decided to listen to the show today, usually only listen to 5-10 mins. I loved him on today fm but sweet jesus, it's as if he is still trying to get his old 3 hour show into the 90 mins he now has. It just seemed rushed from one topic to another, what was the point of the ombudsman? Just seemed like a hse bashing, as for the poor woman whose husband died, it just didn't fit into a rushed afternoon interview.

    Will pop in once in a while but not for long. Really all over the shop.

    Always wanted to give the guy a chance, but just like poor John, he has been found out.

    Not suited to this show, way too deep for him.

    Up against gimps like me who care about the small things like grammar, education, knowledge, gravitas, someone the listener can respect.


    Will never respect Raymond, I'm sorry to say, good in his field, hairdresser radio, he has form in that, will never make it in this slot, just like poor John.

    How long will it take for RTE to realise that.?

    Took them over three years to cotton on to poor John.

    It was in really poor taste to get that poor woman on today, after burying her husband 3 weeks ago, then keep saying, "and you're a widow with 5 young kids", till she cracked.
