Bobby said 'For sure' again

[M4 Junction 11]

said 'For sure' I'll definitely be a sub

[M4 Junction 11]

now questions being asked - three minutes to go

[TFF]

now questions being asked - three minutes to go

I lost patience and switched off.

"No to rugby"

"No to rugby"

"Yes to rugby"

"No to rugby"

"Yes to rugby"

How exciting was that?

What questions were asked?

[Forbury Lion]

My question about handbag or bumbag, preceded with an explaination about Tim's mess up last week. Answer - Bumbag

Fan mail from Korea - Not had any, but another presenter apparantley has and is massive out there.

Kitson farting - Tim couldn't really go into detail!

Plus a few others. Tim promised there would be another oppourtunity in the season to put questions to him (presumably when none of the Reading players answer their phones!).

[WestCoast Life]

Plus a few others.

Mine :

Have you ever had a row with these other commentators who are likely to be as biased against the Royals as you are in their favour ?

Answer : yes, Cardiff away.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Tim,

Why are you such a pompous, toffee nosed twat ?

Much love

RB

a ration wasting post such as this, is worthy of a response from the man himself......but not on air......... "Royal Bisons' By Product".




However.....tonights best bits came with 2 minutes 45 seconds to go.


The man himself deserves at least 20 minutes


better that, than what the other so-called local radio stations have to offer still.



















and those ignorants that phoned in, denoucing the rugby and its detrimental effects on the pitch................do some research before going live on local radio ...........pimmellkopfs

Kitson farting - Tim couldn't really go into detail!.

The question lost it's impact though because Ollie wouldn't use the word 'fart'. Is it a oxf*rd banned word or something

What word did he use then? I'd have said "fluffed"

He said something like "Do you have a particular problem with flatulence and in your experience which Reading FC player has the smelliest of that particular thing"
BBCRB Recording (Tip: Go straight to 50 minutes into the recording. This link is good till they replace it with the show next Friday. Ollie, where do all the old ones go?)

Kitson a fluffer?

Who was the main star and how did he manage to answer Tim's with his mouth full?

[Ollie]

Ollie, where do all the old ones go?

They're overwritten each week by the new one. If we kept them all online we'd run out of room, otherwise we'd do it.

As for the fart question, I just had a strange moment of thinking "I wonder if I'm allowed to say 'fart' on BBCRB" as I was asking it, so didn't. Of course I am - but sometimes when there's a microphone in front of you, you can end up thinking/saying daft things (e.g. Joel "Sibierski cracks one off from 20 yards" Hufford).

If it's any consolation, next time I need to ask Tim about flatulence on the radio, I'll be sure to use the word 'fart'.

It is not possible to compile a definitive list of offensive words. Language is fluid, with new word and phrases regularly entering the public vocabulary. , . Also, the power of established terms to offend may change over time... For example, racist abuse or pejorative terms relating to physical or mental illness and sexual orientation have become increasingly unacceptable to audiences. The following examples indicate the differing offensiveness of language. It is by no means definitive. If in doubt consult a senior editorial figure within your department or Editorial Policy:

The most offensive language includes terms such as oxf*rd, motherfucker and oxf*rd (which are subject to mandatory referrals); others such as cocksucker and nigger are also extremely offensive to audiences.

Moderately offensive language includes terms such as oxf*rd, pussy, bastard, etc. Care should be taken with using moderately offensive terms and they are almost certain to generate complaints if used in pre-watershed programmes.

Mildly offensive language includes crap, Jesus, Christ, knob etc. Terms such as bloody, God, prat, tart etc are all very mildly offensive terms - nonetheless they should not be used indiscriminately.

I think you'll be okay with the occasional 'fart' but don't oxf*rd call anyone a knob

[Royal Lady]

I'd pay good money to hear Tim or Joel sneak moderately or mildly offensive words from the above list into a match commentary!
