Danny Baker to front 6-0-6 again

[1959]

I reckon this would be a good thing, in the early days 6-0-6 was full of humour, now it seems to be full or Premiershite fans whinging about refs, Mourinho and the quality of their prawn cocktail sandwiches.

Two or three weeks ago on 606, some bloke phoned up complaining about Arsenal's new ground. His 'problem' was that at half-time he and his guests had gone for a drink at the bar. When they got back to their seats he was disgusted to find that the game had already re-started. "There hadn't been a bell, or an announcement or anything." he moaned. Alan Green, or Mr Spoon, or whoever it was, mumbled something about 15 minutes being the accepted norm for the half-time break.
The man said he wasn't being petty, but these tickets were very expensive and words to the effect that the least the club could have done was to ensure that he didn't look foolish in front of his guests.
Danny Baker would have eaten him alive.
Sky and the Premiershitt have ruined football.
In my opinion.

That's f***ing outrageous.

Listening to 606 these days, I mean.

Money talks unfortunately, is there anyone who reckons the Champions league is more entertaining than the old European Cup because I think it is largely garbage, same old, same old.

Always preferred Baker myself though

Erm, me. It IS far more entertaining, you don't get many mismatches these days, and it's all on the telly - but it comes at an unacceptably HUGE cost:

1) One European cup has had to be canned
2) The other European cup is now a nothing plate competition
3) By the second group stage, it's the same teams every f***ing year.
4) Teams from smaller leagues now have little or no chance of progressing.
4) The cash generated by the Champions league mean that the league competitions are dominated by the previous seasons champions league qualifiers. Never mind big leagues like Germany, in smaller leagues like Norway and Denmark, this has ruined the competitive nature of those leagues.

Anyone else bored SHITLESS of listening to premiership armchair fans making an annual pilgrimage to their club's home and immediately phoning to WHINGE about the ref?

Dull.

Sounds a bit like our fans on SCR.

 

[Pevenseagull]

I hate Alan Green























that is all

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Anyone know,the actual broadcast date? For Baker,s return.

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

Anyone know,the actual broadcast date? For Baker,s return.

He's not returning. It's a very misleading post title.

Someone just wrote a piece in the Times saying "606 is rubbish, and Baker should come back".

 

[Bry Nylon]

Hope I'm wrong but don't think the Baker-meister will ever be invited back to host 606

BBC Sport seem to like their enthralling recipe of dull presenters, dull callers and dull achingly dull subjects.

Does ANYBODY like Alan Green? Apart from Alan Green, who evidently loves himself.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

When it first started it was all sports - I am not sure there would be demand for an all football phone-in. I remember Danny Baker requesting calls from chess fans ............

He is bloomin funny - but ever so often steps over the line into self-indilgence. But he doesn't give a fig.

I was so upset when Mellor took over I saw him coming out of Loftus Road not long after and shouted "Oi Mellor ....." he turned around with slightly worried celebrity I've-been-recognised-smile "you fat tosser!".

Happy day.

 

[HAMPSHIRE DAVE]

I don't mind Alan Green.
Dam sight better than dull Ray Stubbs.
Getting Danny Baker back though would be brilliant.
God knows what all the stuck-up middle class pricks who follow Premership football now cause it's fashionable would make of him?
IF THEY FOLLOWED FOOTBALL BEFORE THE OVER HYPED PREMEIRSHIP STARTED THEY WOULD KNOW!
Anyone remember the Women who was seeing a couple of Chelsea players at the time but could not say who they were
as she was seeing both without the other one knowing?
She phoned every week with a update.
Danny Baker meet up with her in a pub one night to see if what she was saying was true and she really did exist?

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Always remember Baker promoting fans united day and supporting us during the Archer and co Era.606 was so good when he did it.

 

[Wozza]

Fans United wouldn't have happened without Danny Baker - FACT.

 

[Jello]

Its a tough choice between Alan Green on five live or Terry fecking I'm a manc Christian on Talksport. Both as shite as each other these days

 

[The Large One]

He wished a malignant cancer on the board of Brighton & Hove Albion's directors back in 1996.

No. And the same goes for Mark Lawrenson as a match summariser. He doesn't like Alan Green either.

Alan Green is very irritating, but Lawrenson is even worse. I despise listening to him. He is so dull, and just so negative all the time.

Oooooh! The irony.

 

[Kylies Stunt Arse]

Don't start ALAN. You know what I meant. Actually Lawro gets on my tits more than anything else for his complete and utter disdain for all things Albion.
