Like in the event that he has an unfortunate but nasty accident on the way to the studio?!

Correction - he is the unfortunate but nasty accident on the way to the studio!

Disagree. The lads at BBCRB deserve to have their show boycotted on Friday for playing right into the attention seeking scumbag's hands. I also think they are playing with fire and it could even end up damaging their careers.

1) They will be extremely lucky if they avoid a caller or callers coming out with expletives, which lead to complaints to/against the BBC.

2) Mr Mad's lawyers may well have the tape running and they could end up being sued for libel if Holt repeats some of the things he has come out with since his Cechgate.

Boycott BBRB this Friday!

I agree we should Boycott BBCRB and the Mirror! and not just on Friday.

Your constant promotion of Reading 107 and knocking of BBCRB is getting boring now.

Joel, Ollie and Tim - what is your stance on all this?

I wouldnt go that far, but the silence is deafening.

There's no such thing as bad publicity.....

Thanks Ollie! This one may back fire on you though as it's turned out you're in the minority but I guess it's too late to go back now....

Oh and Harold...you crack me up....

will i be able to listen online, and at what time does it kick off?

Ollie · by **Ollie** » 22 Feb 2007 15:25

Personally I think it's a little unfair that, eight minutes after someone asks for my stance, someone else is writing "We're waiting" as though I've taken a week off.

My stance is simple: I think it'll be a good listen. I want to hear what Holt has to say because you don't often get print journalists properly challenged over what they write (appearing on Sundays with Jimmy Hill is about as much as you get, and that's not exactly Newsnight).

I'd be quite interested if it was Henry Winter or someone like that too - I think getting upset because it's Holt, who clearly dislikes the club and probably won't change his mind, is overlooking the opportunity to ask some decent questions (which people have indeed done and I've got them all here ready to ask).

I am, however, certain the programme will finish with a boxing match. Because we've got some Michael Sprott stuff at five past seven.

Cheers

Cheers Ollie, a decent response.

By the way will you have anyone from the club making a comment tomorrow?

Coppell is on BBCRB shortly. Suspect some reference will be made though can't see Steve biting

Mr(?) Holt,

1. Can you provide evidence of your "Journalist of the Year" award, or is it purely an attempt to mislead readers into believing that your opinions are of any worth.

2. Do you actually support Chelsea?

noise · by **noise** » 22 Feb 2007 15:39

BBCRB is turning into Big Brother, for what outcome? See people arguing for people's entertainment. Classy.

Surely 9 pages of people calling him a oxf*rd is enough to tell you thickies that we aren't interested, and from his columns, he just wants to wind people up to sell papers and get away with anything he says.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, fair enough, my opinion of BBCRB is that it is just acting like a chavette mixer and bunch of illiterate idiots. So when do I get my show?

I'd rather hear from the Reading FC boot polisher than hear some illinformed tabloid writer spout his inane drivel in my back garden, suppose that isn't exciting enough is it?

Loyal to the Royals.
