But more to the point, why the feck does it matter?
Greg James is younger than Grimshaw. So not total box tickery.

Vernon Kay, He's nearly 50.
And that's how much older than Bruce?

Wait till he hears about the new overground line names. He'll have to boycott them now as well.
Lolz. I'd love it to see it called the Lioness Line. Only to see Lineker's face when it's forcibly renamed once Sharia Law takes hold.

This reminds me of when a certain someone was moaning about Alex Scott taking over A Question of Sport. "Box ticking" they told anyone who would listen. The fact she's both an experienced sportsperson and broadcaster was largely irrelevant apparently. Then as it turned out she didn't take over, Paddy McGuinness did. A mediocre white man. That ended well.

For someone who despises the BBC, Lineker , doesn't pay the licence fee, you seem to know a hell of a lot about what goes on there.

Long thought it a shame Radio 5 can't be an all day sports station to 'rival' Talk Sport and have a seperate station for the the depress-athon shows of the likes of Naga Munchetty and Nihal Arthanayake.

Talksport obviously employs pundits who are thick as mince (Jamie O'Hara, Gabby Agbonlahor, Jermaine Pennant, Carlton Cole, Darren Bent etc) because of their need for 'viral content' but it's incredibly tedious after 5 minutes.

Hawksbee & Jacobs in the afternoons is like an oasis of sanity.

There is a huge gap in the market, surely.
Hawksbee and Jacobs are very good indeed.
