    Anyone just hear his on-air 'faux Pas'?

    Dean Saunders was telling a story about when the Wales squad went to play a game in Tunisia. He said the hotel they were in was awful, so all the players compained and got moved to the hotel, on the beach, where the terrorist attacks took place a few years back.

    Brazil's response: "Did you get much shooting practice in"?. 

    They went straight to a break, and when they came back, he apologised and said that he was genuinely referring to the Wales team getting football shooting practice in.

    Didn't Rodney Marsh get sacked from Talk sport years ago when he told a "joke" about a Tsunami ?

    In Alan Brazil's case the fact that he is Literally a "Shock Jock " is why they employ him.

    After what he said about Robin Williams I've concluded that he is a complete prick.

    All for reaction of course, he's forgetting when he did this as a footballer.

    Brazil was sacked by Talk Sport years ago after he failed to turn up for work after a heavy session at Cheltenham Races. There was a big pushback from listeners and the decision was rescinded by the station. Instead they sacked Mike Parry who was Brazil's boss and had made the original decision. Priceless.

    Brazil can't have a go at anyone for oversleeping the amount of shows he used to miss because he was pissed the night before and didn't make it in on time. Surprised he's still at TS.

    He is a pillock, but I can't help but smile at his stories, the one about the hotel in Paris was mental.  He also did co-commentary on the 98 playoffs so that helps me to feel some affinity for him.

    He uses the phrase ‘we’re only here (alive) for a visit’ and seems to live up to that. 

    Good luck to him.
