I'd say he has been punted as he needs to work, unfortunately John lost a shit load of money in the storm financial collapse.

Gibbs admitted last night he was given the tap on the shoulder. Poor form from management
I hope his replacement is just as knowledgable and not some upstart who has a clue from only 2000 onwards.

since the 2 stations merged. 2GB has taken over the newsroom.. so both stations now play 2GB's news.
but sometimes they do use interviews on 2UE's programs in the news.usually when interviews with politicians etc...

but i cant recall them using sports todays interviews in their sports news.
gibbsy has interviewed quite a few big name sports stars over this time.

like today he interviewed a socceroo live after the win last night. but on the news they played an old interview with the coach thats 24 hrs old..

That is a bloody shame. I reckon Gibbsy is fantastic for that program. I actually preferred when Brandy was with him, but he is still entertaining on his own.

Poor old Gibbsy got on the wrong side of Hadlley a long time ago... ( think he had the front to take a better offer elsewhere..)

The Big Man Brohman did the same and he was on the outer for a while but he somehow managed to get back in the good books with Ray..

Moral of the story- If you want to be on AM radio in an NRL capacity suck hole Ray..

Hadley. Got some self esteem issues that bloke.

What a narcissistic arsehole. Reminds me of my father in law.

My Dad was telling me about one time Gibbsy and Brandy were discussing some league issue or other and when Brandy was summing up his point of view, he was to'ing and fro'ing on the issue and meant to say at the end "To be honest John I'm ambivalent on this one"

But he ended up saying "To be honest John I'm ambiguous on this one" :lol:

My old man reckons you could hear the mirth in Gibbsy's response through the radio "Are You? Glad we cleared that up" :lol:

Am I the only one who can't stand him? I mean he's a good League fan and I'm not stoked he's lost a job but I find him insufferable to listen to longer than 5 minutes

Bolts, welcome to LU. John Gibbs is fantastic. He is intelligent, patient, discerning and very knowledgeable about all sports. Gibbs will get another job in the media. He was also a very good half for Manly all 'them' years ago.

I got the feeling the show was being cancelled but its still going minus Gibbsy wonder if it will be on in 2016. Vossy would do a good job hosting.
