Change of subject to cool a few people down as tempers are getting a bit frayed.

JC is joining Talksport in the summer to be a pundit alongside Adrian Durham during the matches they are covering.

Now I know Durham talks a lot of :censored: but I dont really mind him as he is just trying to provoke a reaction to get the calls in and JC has phoned in himself in the past to have a go because he got slagged off over retiring from international football.

Its the two Manc lovers in the morning that I cant stand, Brazil and Chicken.

Ahh good stuff, I used to love talksport and was listing in the day Jamie rang in. I reckon he could be pretty good on radio, although I hope a step into punditry is only a diversion for him on a road to him becoming a future Liverpool manager.

Great for you guys over there, I'd love to be able to hear it.  Of course, the only drawback is that radio doesn't have subtitles :p

JC talks a lot of sense and knows his stuff, it should make for good listening.

True, he lives and breathes football, read his book and he freely admits that when he is not playing he is watching.

Would love to see Carra give Collymore an earful.

Only just occurred that Micky Quinn is a presenter on there as well,  a Carragher and Quinn show would be brilliant.

was funny when Durham asked him if he was bothered Liverpool get labelled a two man team, he said no because we where a one man team before Torres arrived, really is a top guy Jamie, i only live about half a mile from his mums so see him and his family all the time. my bird was in the barbers one day getting my lads hair cut when jamie came in, for all the fame and money he has never forgotten where he came from.

I do agree some of the shows like Brazil inthe morning and Colly are a bit of a turn off but the only way you can change attitudes in station like this are from the inside, boycotting wont help, Carras doing the right thing, it will gain him and the club more respect by the station and the listeners.
