arsenal are finished i think. wenger has lost his mind, as in "i'll buy strikers instead of some midfield replacements after losing nasri and fibreglass". liverpool are playing well enough to finish 4th again, and i think they will be more consistant this year, especially when gerrard comes back.

just thought i'd quickly post this.

this was 10 years ago today, the last time i saw england play world class. i was going to a wedding that night and i remember the fifth goal being scored listening to 5live on the way there. since then the side has shown how crap they can be more than how good they can be.

i don't think england are even close or good enough to win a major tournament. but now capello has gone, maybe all this defensive frame of mind football and bullshit that came with him can be put to bed now. plus the media need to stop thinking that rooney is the only player england has.

i'd like to see a lot of young players at the tournament, oxlade-chamberlin for one. 18 years old, fearless, pace, can cross, can score... could turn out to do what owen did in 98.

mick mccarthy has gone. he took wolves as far as he could and did a good job to keep the side in the premiership for three years, but i think it was his time. i just hope wolves show some ambition and try and get someone like steve bruce or alan curbishley, probably end up with ian dowie. #lackofambition

there's word redknapp might take paul scholes to the euros if he's in the job by then. now i think scholes is a legend, but he's 37. if we want to do what germany did at the last world cup then we need to get the likes of wilshire tournament experience.

I thought he did alright, he got wolves up into the premier league, and helped them stay for an extra season when no one thouhg they would.

he did. but everyone is dissapointed with the lack of ambition when it came to bringing in players. could of done with someone like robbie keane, his wages would of been worth it to stop up but wolves won't pay that much. but it's not all down to mccarthy, the majority of wolves fans feel sorry for him and have respect for what he's done. the board and players have to share the blame.

Would make me laugh if they end up with someone like Rafa. Mick did a good job but he needed new blood and failed to get any.

Now Standard Chartered are getting involved with the Luis Suarez thing, bet Liverpool's owners are not happy in the slightest. If he isn't careful he'll be got rid of.

frimpong seems like a good choice though... hopefully going to the wolves man u match in a couple of weeks...

there was a bit of bad luck ith frimpong being injured and bassong as well. but he's had three years to develop the team, most of the squad are championship class players.

no ambition was the problem, i don't think it was all down to mick. but he should of stood his ground against the board if they were saying you can't have this player or that because of money issues. wolves turn over around 60 million a year and it's being wasted on a new stand.

someone like benitez wouldn't come to the wolves, i'd be happy with steve bruce or curbishley (being as he saved west ham that year so he has experience). but the board have messed up. if mccarthy had to go, then why not do it in january so whoever comes in can buy the players they feel they would need to help wolves stop in the premier league.

they took out peel house in wolvers as well so that the owner of wwfc could build a hotel... bit stupid if you ask me. but also, surely it's better to spend the money on players rather than making the place look better? also, it's not going ot be finished now they won't get as much money.

steve morgan owns a building company, so the only thing he see's is developing the ground. get the football right first.

So Rangers in administration and Portsmouth might be going that way again too. Not a good time for football really. Hope that teams take note of whats happening and stop spending stupidly.

i know what's been going on at the wolves isn't exactly ideal. but the news today puts it into perspective, this is why i'm glad that wolves are one of the only few clubs not in millions of debt. i feel sorry for rangers, and especially portsmouth fans becuase they've had this for years now. just when they think they are out of it, it starts all over again.

      Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe

      Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.

      To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday?

      It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week.

      Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!

      There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?

      Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.

      Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters

      Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.

      Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.

      Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.

      Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.

      Jordan North's first Capital Radio breakfast show

      By AndyK77 · Posted

      Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
