Rio is a twat but thats pretty funny

 

[Common as Mook]

I heard that. Really funny interview - Rio actually came across pretty well.

 

[Silent Bob]

Calling him a fat shithead would've been more accurate.

Really well for a homophobic, misognynist, pothead with f*** all common sense?

 

[Artois]

Bit harsh.

 

[jonny.rainbow]

But true.

Thank god - I read that story and thought I was missing something.

Rio sounds like an utter moron. Which isn't really news is it?

 

[desprateseagull]

moyles and most of the Radio 1ker dj's are annoying nowadays- today's show an example-

the intro jingle was kept playing in the background for some time, and they past a lot of the time fiddlling with the mics, eadphones etc..

and no doubt embarrass one of the staff, with repeated jokes about her (allegedly) peeing herself, during the Great Noreth Run.. not something you really want to hear, having breakfast!

have they really run out of ideas for the show? just say your stuff, play the records, or naff orf!

Yeah but he's not a GAY moron, OK? He just wants to make that clear, OK? NOT a gay. No sir, not Rio. And he's NOT oversensitive about it either. Like some big prissy queen.

Rio isn't the the brightest bulb in Vegas I must admit but being a West Ham fan I can only defend him... That is pretty damn funny though

 

[Trufflehound]

Moyles said "you can't say that" before joking that the comment was "footballing terminology for a funny lad".

blah blah blah

A Radio 1 spokeswoman said...: "After Rio's comment, he immediately apologised and Moyles acknowledged that he had meant no offence by commenting 'I know you didn't mean anything by it, you're just messing'."

So I guess "messing" is Radio 1 terminology for "a prick"?

 

[Common as Mook]

Bit of an over reaction. Have any of you ever called anyone a faggot in jest? Doesn't mean he's homophobic does it?

 

[Rookie]

think he came across quite well, he could mess about and take the banter which i wasn't expecting

 

[Del Boy]

Thick as pig shit!

 

[Simster]

Not funny at all. Just makes him look like a thick retard - which is about right.

This gay related topic, on the other hand, had me laughing my tits off.

 

[Les Biehn]

He is so down to earth that Rio Ferdinand, real man of the people. As long as they ain't fags!

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I was in Tesco's about thirty minutes ago, heard someone say it on their phone about Rio.

Anagram of Rio Ferdinand:

Arrogant cockney twat who thinks he is funny. (OK, I used a little artistic licence, please forgive me on this occasion)
