Well done. Here, have a Penguin.
First of all - all those who have a negative comment about him - * off - why have u even registered here??????
Freedom of speech and opinion. Afterall, Moyles is funded by the public, and therefore like every other publicly-funded entity, the people are entitled to have their say.
Granted, some users on this site are only interested in puerile and bigoted Moyles-bashing, but there are those of us who are more liberal and mature in our approach and prefer to generate constructive, and where possible, humourous comment and criticism.
Second - Chris really is the saviour of Radio 1 - Imagine this.............mornings without him!!!????????
I managed perfectly well for 21 years until Moyles took over the Breakfast slot in 2004. I'm sure I could cope after he's gone.
Finally - if Chris is like the rest of us - sleeping in and being late is NORMAL!!!! So shut the * up!!!!
You've obviously never been in full-time employment. Judging by your grammar skills and inability to articulate yourself to a decent standard, I'd say that you're probably about 13-years-old and currently being 'educated' in a failing comprehensive school.
It would be great to have a job where we can wake up and choose whether or not we feel like going into work that day. All of us would love to have that flexibility. Unfortunately, this is the real world full of capitalist ideals and conformity where you're nothing, absolutely nothing without money.
If I woke up on Monday morning and decided to go back to bed and actually
fall asleep for another half an hour and then have to be re-woken by my obviously more professional colleagues who were frantically phoning me to get my ass into work - I would be sacked without hesitation. Perhaps if R1 docked Moyles a days wages (£2,000) every time he was late, maybe he wouldn't treat his colleagues and listeners with such contempt.
Moyles needs to remember that no one, however much they themselves believe it, is irreplaceable. He may believe himself to be the 'savior' of Radio 1 and is invincible, but in reality R1 has been a very popular and successful radio station for 40 years and will continue to be sucessful long after Moyles has ridden off into the sunset.
