So, what's happened then ? Come on, someone must know. Been reading that his replacement has been getting loads of flack on the internet for his commentary already ......
getting loads of flack on the internet
Uncanny, like he’s modelled himself on him. He’s actually ‘ a poor man’s Ian Stringer’Sadly I can't listen to OPA as a commentator, he has a very similar style to Stringer.
So not qualified properly for the role then, Is it an unpaid position?OPA is a kid barely out of school. He got the gig by doing Work Experience at RL and has been tutored by Strings. He's still learning the trade.
I vote bnetThe entire Radio Leicester sports production programming needs an overhaul. ‘The Boot Room’ has to go, and someone with a little sports Radio experience needs to be recruited
Actually had interviews with some of the players, which never happened with StringerI vote bnet
Caller: Rodgers is doing an OK job
Bnet: fuck off
I'd tune in

Thought I saw him walking to the game with his daughter. He was head and shoulders better than what came before him despite being a bit theatrical at times. Hope he gets back to doing what he clearly enjoyedSaw Stringer last night with his lad, he has reverted to being ' a fan' & assume he is now a paying punter, which is no bad thing.
Well said. For a young guy, thrown in the dead end earlier than expected, and the responsibility he’s suddenly taken on, he gets better week by week.I really like OPA. For a guy so young he comes across as knowledgeable about the club ( as is possible without having lived the history like most of us on here), he’s eloquent, speaking proper English as opposed to many in the football world who can hardly string 3 words of English together as opposed to a lot of the Germans, French, Spaniards etc and isn’t fazed by interviewing the likes of BR. Whether he was ever being groomed as Stringers replacement I don’t know but I’d guess he never thought he’d get the gig so soon. Give him a chance.
I don’t have certainty over this but that’s my understanding too.I thought he had some mental health issues? I've had mine in the past, that's the trouble supporting City.
Probably to do with PearsonWhat did he actually do that meant the players boycotted RL?
