    Obligatory mention of Jimmy McGee .

    This thing is a waste of time. It will be confined to events that were on RTE and Italia 90 will win.

    So Ray set to interview Des Cahill, another RTE love-in.
    The rugby fan in him showing. Gerry McLoughlin was a prop not a second row, and is very much alive. €500k a year.

    David Hall for president? Too many skeletons I'd have thought and remember the fate of Adi Roche.

    It’s not so much not knowing, surely he would have a’ dope sheet’ in front of him giving the ‘skinny’ on the events he would comment on.

    I mean the guy knows what’s coming up, just read off the sheet, don’t make a tool of yourself.

    He had to retract his McLoughlan comment at the end. "I'm sure his family knows he's alive" lol.

    Just goes to buttress my comments over the duration of this thread.

    The lad hasn’t the general knowledge to handle a gig like this.

    Hairdresser radio is his limit.

    Nothing personal, just saying what most people can see.

    Well that's OK then..?!

    I doubt Ray would be so blasé if he found an erroneous mention of his own obituary in the morning newspapers. I know mistakes happen, that's fair enough, but don't just assume -- and then announce -- someone is dead, on the basis of guesswork. Hardly too much to ask.

    He is such an idiot. When he realised he said "Jesus" , Richie Sadlier had to issue an apology for doing it on Rte 2 weeks ago. Is egghead gonna do the same.

    caught by mistake a bit of his tv show on Sat. with the older couples married a long time !!- he said something stupid to the husband - who pulled him up on it - cant remember what it was but just thought does it ever end !
    he has such a dull personality and is not a people person - who ever thought he was suitable as a tv/ radio personality ?
    I would say he has feck all friends - would explain why it took him so long to get married.

    I was part of a feature on the old Show back 10 years ago now. It involved a couple of nights in Dublin courtesy of Today FM and I was told at one of them that Ray would give me a call that evening, another I was to meet him and do something at Vicar Street.
    I was a big fan of the show and listened everyday at the time. Well I cant tell you how rude I found Ray. As obnoxious a person as i have ever encountered and not fit to deal with the public on a daily basis.
    Oh and Arthur for Mailbag was the most aloof person id ever me haha!

    He has a classic case of Rteitis. Symptoms include extreme narcissism, a total lack of a personality, no talent, and detachment from reality.

    Incisive rugby analysis with a couple of mentions of Anthony Conway's performance on Saturday. Must be related to Ireland's tryscorer Andrew Conway. All in the preparation.

    Had the misfortune to hear the last few minutes of today's show. He was interviewing Guy Garvey of Elbow about their version of Golden Slumbers being used for the John Lewis TV Christmas advert. He asked Guy if he knew the background to the song. Guy had only just started to talk when Ray butted in and read off a speil and at the end said something along the lines of "Well that's what it says on Wikipedia, so it might not be accurate". €500k folks, €500k.

    or MARY doyle kennedy as he called her. I mean, really. It's an appalling standard of quality for the national broadcaster.

    Thats not a surprise for a very well paid RTE presenter, sure the best paid phone operator in Ireland constantly referred to Councillor Nial Ring as Neal
