I vote for Juice FM in Liverpool, a dreadful radio station that is never happy unless its playing a dance song & encouraging youngsters to get drunk etc...
Is this the CR station Tabby allegedly got fired from for scratching another member of staff?
To set the record straight once and for all I left in 2008 (I wasnt fired) over the music policy, they wouldnt even play the clean version of R.A.T.M this year
Anyhoo I have better things to do with my time and they are still clinging to the faint hope OFCOM will give them a licence and I cant see it happening any time soon
The main problem that station has is their presenters talk at you not to you!
I have started to work on a studio project with 2 former members of that station so that will keep me busy

Amongst other things yes but I dont confine myself to just this you see as I am working on other projects elsewhere so all isnt doom and gloom in my life
In South Yorkshire, Hallam/Robbie-Williams FM must be in with a shout !
Every other track broadcast seems to be that cretin ! ( The others are Z-factor "winners" )
"Do yer luv me ?" No Mr Williams I don't. Take the cash you've scammed off the tone deaf sheep and GO AWAY ! :mad:
Does anyone know how to rip out the built-in FM radio of a Citroen Xsara so I can fit a DAB unit and receive something half-decent ?

Rather like my local station which is nothing but top 40 repeats in constant rotation.
From talking to family,friends and work colleagues, if an equivalent to BBC 6 Music was available on FM, it might harpoon DAB take up in South Yorkshire !
Everyone seems to be fed up of electro-R&B chart rubbish,Z-factor winners and 80's pop.
I like quite a wide range of "music", but I can go through the entire FM radio range in my car and not find anything worth listening to. Sometimes the same track is being played on several local FM stations simultaineously !
Galaxy and Juice are great stations, they play loads of good new music with that bit of spice that your Hearts and Big City stations are missing.
My least favourite stations personally are those which have cliched playlists... like Heart and Rock FM. I even prefer Radio Wave 96.5 to the rubbish that's on 97.4 these days.

Good luck when you do start work on these other projects.
A real mess of a station... a poor oldies station, a poor soul station, a poor easy listening station, a poor jazz station...
The problem is it doesn't seem to know what it is and what it should be playing!
London-based shows seem a copy-paste job of Magic and Heart playlists with some Gloria Gaynor and Chic thrown in. Manchester-based shows are better with their soul-heavy playlists, but you still get (yawn) Robbie Williams and Will Young etc. alongside the decent soul stuff.
This station must have changed direction musically more times in the last three years than any other in the UK.
A real waste of a station that once had potential :mad:

Is it an extremely crap station called Heart Essex?
No

Talk sport, the biggest load of rubbish on air.

But her friend isnt very popular I hear:D
Sadly serious illness has now stopped me from doing what I love
I refuse to listen to it, as its all a bit one dimensional
Posting on here?

A good friend of mine Keith Skues used to run that station:D
If he was involved with choosing the station's type of playlist, he obviously hates Yorkshiremen !
No Skuesy was there from 1974 till he left in 1990 (he was station manager) so he cant be blamed for the mess currently being broadcast

It's not Heart is it?
