    Don't really understand the hate, I think he's a fantastic presenter. Couldn't imagine anyone else in the role

    Don’t you have a bike you should be on?

    Thanks for that, was having a tough morning but that really cheered me up. Haven’t laughed like that in ages!

    Not everyone has a roof over their head or food every evening Ray :(

    Apologise to her for being white, Ray, I think that is the only thing that will help.

    It's f**king Ireland ffs, we don't see the sun. Only the people who arrive in the country tell us about it.

    Im not a fan of Darcy...but he is nowhere near as unlikeable as Ryan Tubridy...

    If you dislike Darcy more than that pr1ck then I'm sorry....you're wrong...

    When you hear mention of ‘event organiser’ anywhere in the background ...anywhere...... first thing you should think is ‘ chancer’..however tenuous the connection is.

    So dopey doesn't know the significance of the robin and Christmas.

    Dr Fauci is reportedly the highest-paid federal employee in the States.
    He’s paid about 50 grand a year less than Ray Darcy.
    Is there a word that adequately describes this?

    When you think about that its really scandalous the loot Rte dish out and whinge about their losses. Would love to see where all the great presenters would go exactly .We constantly hear we would lose them am pretty sure the BBC would have little interest in them maybe Ryan but offers would be limited anyway .

    OK but work with me here.

    The posters proposition was "one word".

    ‘Phukkerry’

    You see there’s the funny bit..... all these ‘showbiz’ types in RTE want showbiz pay but teachers hours.

    Again

    There is nothing......nothing...... which justifies D’Arcys wedge..... not a thing.

    Stellar lineup my arse


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,405 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    J H C..... Joe Gill..... and he calls her Ghill...soft g.

    Sweet divine ....fuhherke.


    Out of 100,000 people only one person would call her Ghill....... D’Arcy.

    What a plonker.

    Part of Brenda Power's piece in the Sunday Times on RTE's recent publishing of their top earners salaries:

    "Few can deny that Ryan Tubridy, who has made The Late Late Toy Show a global event, is paying his way, but it seems absurd to be arguing over a publicly funded salary of €292,000 for the new secretary general of the Department of Health when he’ll be earning €158,000 less than Ray D’Arcy."

    I'm not in agreement about Tubridy, but I liked the dig at the utterly useless, pointless media entity that is Mr Ray D'Arsey.

    I didn't hear this, and I don't know of this person,
    but are you saying that he pronounced the surname as Jill instead of Gill?
    I presume the correct pronunciation is Gill with a G as in Girl, is that correct?

    I suppose one could argue that Tubridy has taken the toy show and sucked the fun and innocence and sheer joy from it and turned it into a vehicle for the manchild to display his own interests and pecadillos and dress it up as a "toy show" with less and less toys on display each year , an overhyped ball of smoke which leaves both children and adults underwhelmed and disappointed every time. yet every year its heralded as the greatest thing since the invention of the moving picture box in the corner

    Just tuned into D'Arcy as I know the current guest (Derek Cawley, Spine Surgeon). Does D'Arcy ever shut up? He's constantly interrupting and attempting to finish Derek's sentences, often incorrectly of course, and then Derek has to correct him. I don't listen to this show often but fock me he's brutal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Late to nuacht of course - that much I do know!

    Did anyone hear Mr motivator on with Ray? I thought it was hilarious he was taking Ray as a big fat dj type and Ray said you can't comment on my body you haven't seen it with his guffaw after to hide his distain.
    Mr motivator said he'd send Ray a leotard equivalent for men and Ray said he'd have to check with his wife if he could wear one. �� Worth listening back for the laugh
