    Alan Green. Commentators are supposed to inform and entertain, he does neither. Time for him to retire.

    One word, Beckams.

    Sometimes I’m convinced that we’re living in the matrix and most of these celebs are dumb rich kids from the future playing out some fantasy sim. Or lizards.

    I can understand how Farage is making a career as a politian although it will be, thankfully, very short lived and he will fade away. All the above mystify me.

    I could add the Chilli Peppers to that thread.

    I agree. At least people that like U2 appreciate that Bono is a nob. People that like the bland MOR dross served up by RHCP fancy themselves as people that actually *like* music 😯

    Shaun Keaveny…..no musical taste beyond Led Zeppelin and the Stone Roses, no humour beyond a 15 year olds irritating impressions. A lazy ‘self deprecating’ egomaniac bellend milking 6 music.

    Richard looking autistic.

    + 1 it is not acceptable to use that as an insult

    Well thats an inexplicable typo/autocorrect combo. I’m not sure how to look autistic, I’m also not sure of the combination of keystrokes to get from ‘enthusiastic’ to ‘autistic’ – although I was corrected again because i mis-typed as I typed that.

    So for clarity – ‘Richard looking enthusiastic and Judy looking drunk’ He would keep talking over her, she’s stop then he’d try to gee her on like someone trying to teach a dog a trick and she’d just roll her eyes , exhale and slump.

    Maccruiskeen seems to have morphed into an Italian Second World War tank. 😀

    Pretty much most BBC and ITV football ‘pundits’

    In no particular order of uselessness –

    Scholes
    Chiles
    Gary Neville
    Lineker
    Lawrenson
    Lawrenson
    Lawrenson
    Lawrenson

    And repeat.

    The man should be arrested for crimes against humanity. An Englishman who wasn’t good enough, so opted to play for ROI, but insists on calling England ‘we’.

    Jesus.

    Brian Blessed was a brilliant actor in his day, some of the Shakespeare with the RSC… yes a bit old and mental but still fun

    Fearne Cotton – Granddad Bill Cotton Jnr landed a job in charge of a BBC department who made sure his son got a cushy BBC job who had a daughter called Fearne. Claudia Winkleman has a famous mother as well, Eve Pollard – anyone spotting a theme? the nepotism in the media and showbiz is pissboilingly blatant

    I’d go for Piers Morgan too. I’m simply unable to understand what he brings to anything.

    Beyond that I have a huge list, far too long to detail here but I’ll go for my top five, say.

    Bono
    Gary Barlow
    George Osborne
    Richard Madeley
    All those dickheads on the only way is essex. Half of them literally struggle to tie their own shoelaces and yet they’ve made a career out of being stupid dickheads. How does that work? Oh right, the audience are dickheads. Forgive me.

    Bolton and Blackburn both relegated since he left and the former got into Europe

    Limited possibly ,but he has never had the players to not be, but no one is better at what he does than him IMHO

    There are quite a few high profile/ media types that I can’t stand but surely to get where they are either they’ve got some talent that I cant see or they know someone who can help them get on in their ‘careers’? No surprise the usual suspects get more than one mention…
    FWIW I can’t stand Piers Morgan,am absolutely mystified how Richard & Judy ever made it,likewise that Geordie Cheryll bint,Jordan or whatever her name is these days and other vacuous cartoon characters.I could think of a few names but I really don’t want to waste effort trying to recall them…

    John Major. Elected by a country for not being someone else.

    Osbourne looks a commensurate pro by comparison.

    Osborne smashed out of his tree on something, probably alcohol, in parliament. Some of you voted him in. Well done.

    Ant and Dec – waste of oxygen
    Ian Duncan Smith – lets spend hundreds of millions to develop something that does’t work
    Michael Gove – why make the education system more dysfunctional
    Bernie Ecclestone (and his spoilt daughters)- seems he enjoys the politics of F1 more than the racing
    Miranda – you are not funny!
    Greg Wallace – talking shit doesn’t get any harder than this!

    Well, I could take the first few steps, get distracted by a Nepalese squirrel and wander off repeatedly

    …would that count?

    I’ve got a feeling this might be a never ending thread. I agree with circa 90% of the previous names and here are quite a few more in no particular order.

    *Arny and Sly — actors my arse
    *Joan Collins,Christopher Biggins, Cilla and a whole bunch of others, whats the point of them ?
    *Damian Hurst, the UKs most prolific swindler closely followed by Tracey Emin
    *Laurence Llewelyn Bowen – tasteless prick
    *Any I’m a celeb get me out here contestant
    *Robbie Williams average at best
    *Robbie Savage- vain bell end
    *Ed Milliband – putting him in charge was akin to assisted suicide by the labour faithful
    *Geoffrey Archer – another talent-less tosser
    *Prince Andrew and Mark Thatcher, free loading, titled t****
    *The beared bastard called Branson – champion of free enterprise my arse – name me one, just one non regulated business he has made money from ?
    *Peter Jones of Dragon Den – vain, egotistical fffing useless pseudo business man, ditto Alan Sugar

    Thats it for now, I will back with more once I’ve slept on it 😀

    Peter Andre. Words fail me on this useless object.

    I awoke to find I had missed off the fraud that goes by the name of Russel Brand, please stop him getting any media attention time, the guy is an air head.

    If it wasn’t for the guy on the right, the guy on the left’s career would be a complete mystery:
