You forgot one category - The 'Paul Gambaccini needs a slap award'

Oh and I just found this, apparently Paul has been dropped from hosting the Sony's:

The bitter old git needs to keep taking his pills so he doesnt keep coming out with tasteless jibes against Moyles and the BBC. Very uncalled for.

As for the awards themselves, it just seems to be the same bunch of people year in year out, whose 'turn' will it be to get a gong this year I wonder? It's got naff all to do with quality. That said it would be great if Moyles was allowed to keep parading himself in front of the industry year in year out, but I doubt it somehow if he'll win.

[TIAL]

Good to see Adam & Joe getting a few nominations there, I hope they get at least one because they really deserve it.

As for Chris getting the Breakfast Show award again - I'm not sure he will to be honest. They got rid of Gambaccini - that shows a nod towards Chris' direction, but if they gave him the award too it'd probably be seen as a bit OTT.

I look forward to being proven wrong though.

I also don't think he will get it but just because of all the bad press this year.

[Munki Bhoy]

I swear that's the same breakfast nominations as last year. Right down to Bowie at Breakfast up here on Radio Clyde.

[Andy B]

In the Entertainment Catagory it's nice to see the guy who played Robin alongside Val Kilmer's Batman is up for an award. I hope Jeff Lloyd gets it. I thought Tim Shaw was sacked from Absolute? Why'd they put him in for it?

It was just a stupid joke, trying to get them some publicity for his show.

I also think the Geoff Lloyd deserves it, and it's not a bad field for him to be up against, only Adam and Joe are the people who will stop him.

[Ed Pummelon]

I don't think he'll get it either, but for political reasons over anything else. When you look at the competition, in a fair contest he should have it in the bag, but somehow I can't see it this year.

You forgot one category - The 'Paul Gambaccini needs a slap award'

At least he's been relieved of his hosting duties this year. Chris Evans is doing it instead.

NOTE TO CHRIS:

Yes, it is brilliant that you have been nominated for a second year running but PLEASE STOP going on about it every 5 seconds!

For people that don't follow the awards or work radio, they do not care and it will annoy them. I follow them but its annoying me as your going on about it every bludy second!

End of rant.

He mentioned it once today, and that was only because someone text in asking if he'd won,and that prat from Bizarre had said something about him in his column. he mentioned it once yesterday as well i believe. I dont thnk that's too excessive

Today he was quite about it.

Yesterday when he was nominated he mentioned it every link pretty much, listen back.

[C-Kay]

It was also in the news though. Plus yesterday was yesterday, today was quiet, so your rant is a day late, therefore not really valid

[in4308]

My rant was posted yesterday! Therefore it is not a day late, making it perfectly valid thankyou very much!

[C-Kay]

I am a tosser haha, i didnt even notice that.

Apologies to you, sir.

[in4308]

Thankyou.

I was about to make a complaint to the Daily Mail then.

[foot-loose]

Booo. I was just beginning to enjoy that! FIGHT!!!

[in4308]

Booo. I was just beginning to enjoy that! FIGHT!!!

My handbag was at the ready.

[C-Kay]

Real men use suitcases

[foot-loose]

The ones with the telescopic handles and the wee clacky wheels? I can't imagine they would be much use in a battle situation.

[C-Kay]

They extend, thus making you a safe distance away from your opponent, and out of reach of any cheap shots they may try.

Plastic > Leather

[foot-loose]

Plastic > Leather

Woah. Calm down there cowboy.

There are many many situations where leather overrules plastic.

[C-Kay]

Oh i absolutley agree, in fact, i retract my last statement

[foot-loose]

Good lad.

[in4308]

**loses will to live**

[Andy B]

I've modified my suitcas so the extendible handles are on super powerful springs. Press a button and they shoot out taking your opponent by surprise and crippling him in the process.
