    One thing about Ray Darcy, he doesnt have about 27 chins on his face like that other guy Joe Duffy. Some guys just get too comfortable in their position in RTE that they forget.....and totally forget because of their self importance.

    I can't be certain of this, but I've heard that Ray does a spot of running and only eats healthy beneficial food. There's a rumour going around that he's a big fan of porridge but this has yet to be verified.

    A wo/man in the know. Google a pic of Joe and get a calculator ....so many chins he makes Jabba the Hut look like he's just come Weight Watchers.

    Ray is brilliant on the radio, his listenership figures reflect this.

    I don't understand all the negative comments, you know what you get with him and if you don't like it switch off.

    Sure what would they have to complain bitterly about if Derek Mooney was in that slot? D'arcy is manna from heaven for the people on this thread that need something to obsessively give out about.

    D'Arcy is a fiddiot.. he has zero charisma. Talking S##te for the last 12 minutes about mixing up names. Sure what would you expect for a half a million a year

    it's a national radio station, paid for out of our pockets. Why should he be paid €500K to whine on about his children. BTW I don't listen to his show

    Wasn't there not something about sponsorship money and ad revenue generated from his listenership figures covering his wages. If that's the case, the argument that we pay his wages is moot.

    I don't listen to them either. Haven't heard him since he moved back to RTÉ but this thread beggars belief. It's like people tune into him everyday just to have something to moan about. Lads, there's better things to be doing with your time. Turn him off. If enough people do, it will actually affect his listenership figures.

    If I've any choice in the matter I turn ff before 3.05. However I spend a lot of time in other peoples houses, mainly kitchens. Far be it for me to tell a customer what channel to listen to.

    OK so if his salary is covered by sponsorship and ad revenue how about they pay him a couple of hundred grand less and use the money saved elsewhere?

    This woman is the 'Nanny State Inc' - she writes/ lectures on health and comes schooled from the dysfunctional Dept of Health background. Talk about self reinforcement of views. Her job, salary and pension are/ were all based on 'Health Promotion', so hardly surprising that she thinks that people who drink/ smoke themselves into an early grave bear little or no responsibility for themselves. She's all for tax and regulation........
