    He’s twice the man he was than when playing.

    A mate of mine knows him quite well.
    He's a horse racing tipster goes by the name of Couch.
    I had a drink with the pair of them once and it took me a week to recover

    Brazil is a Legend. I've absolutely no idea how he's still alive!
    Every time I see this thread, I think it must be a RIP.

    Speaking of Brazil and Talksport, did you hear the run in he had with newsreader shebahn Aherne this morning?
    She had a similar spat with Jeff Stelling last week. 
    She makes my teeth itch that woman. Proper anti-English as well. She was getting some serious snipes in during the Euros but because it was about 5 in the morning I doubt many heard them.
    I've got to the point that whenever I hear her I switch channels.

    She's a total cnut.
    I can't listen to the pitch.

    Yeah, was listening live this morning. Radio is brilliant when you can sense tension and She Bangs was right rattled. 

    Brazil is a dinosaur and I don’t agree with all his views but I think he’s great radio and my word has he enjoyed his life!

    Growing army of blokes think much the same judging by the response.
    Not great when you work on very blokey radio station and you rattle arguably two of their biggest names.

    Should think she-bang will be getting the 'shut up, or f**k off' order pretty soon.

    Brazil is a legend, without him "Clips of the week" on Friday afternoon is rubbish.

    Regardless of her spat with him this morning, which I heard, she is an antagonist, no talent, anti English “sellick” minded republican bint, can’t stand the over promoted twat, how she got any show of her own is baffling, nowhere near as informed and professional as Georgie Bingham who they stupidly let go.

    When Laura Woods left she changed and all of a sudden became really opinionated.
    I guarantee she thought she was going to step into the void. But her lack of talent and annoying personality shone through and she's stuck on the graveyard shift and bit parts winding up Brazil & co.
    It's a big reason of why she's so bitter.
    They need to get shot because people turn off in droves when she opens her gob.

    I’ve always liked Alan Brazil. A very good player as well. 
    He played for the last decent team the 1961's had.
    Birkenshaw(may have been spelt incorrectly)was his manager if I'm not mistaken, a bloody good manager.

    It’s so sad that people are scared to voice their true opinion on this for fear of upsetting anyone

    She-bang wasn't on the early show this morning. No surprise there.

    Probably talking to her lawyers

    Brazil saying be serious no ones interested in Man Utd’s women’s team when talking about the problems at Man Utd and sheban was ‘well I am’ and sticking up for women’s footy

    To be fair to Brazil he acknowledged its growing popularity but just shut her down when talking about the problems at Man Utd and she was trying to include the women’s team in it - he (rightly) said most people basically didn’t give a shit and the issues they had were with the men’s side

    Poor old Gabby Abonglahor in the middle of it all!

    Women’s football has grown impressively over the past 30 years in my individual opinion.
    However Alan Brazil speaks for ‘most people’ so that’s all right then.

    Do people still listen to talk shite, can’t believe the crap they used to come up with. For the first year or so was quite entertaining but same old bollocks then came up week in week out.

    Gave up listening to it years ago.

    mainly because its financially supported so much by the mens game.

    I'm more surprising that people still get round up by it than Alan Brazil still being alive! Her job is clearly to wind people up and she's doing a good job. I wonder what people will get their knickers in a twist about next week? Mental that women's football still gets bites!

    I know he's an aquired taste but I love him and his stories (would much rather listen to him than Stelling or Laura Woods!)

    Mrs JB bumps into him every couple of months in the champagne bar at Waitrose at Canary Wharf when she meets one of her girlfriends for dinner.

    Remember when she said the Spice Girls are better than the Beatles and Jeff had a bit of a tongue in cheek argument with her, she seemed to completely misread it and got a bit serious throwing in the "60 year old bloke so must be right" line (or similar). 

    Think she reckons she's in line to get their job as main anchor tbh.

    EDIT* Also remember her ribbing Brazil about getting his dog put down. Think there was something in the news at the time about people getting their pets cloned, and she turned on Brazil about his family dog. He said to leave it, but she kept on at him. Tell the mark of a person who'd even ask in the first place, let alone keep on when they've clearly hit a nerve

    The men’s game is hardly financially independent.

    Mark Winstanley..? Always rated him as a judge. Don't see much of him in the racing media these days unfortunately
