Sports Today Back on 2UE from Monday

[Parramatta1947]

This show's audience would be made up of 95% men,

That is a wrong generalisation. I am female and the female fan base was just as strong since it started. When Pete Bosly was running it, he said he was surprised that almost half of the emailers/callers to the show were actually women.

But yes, get rid of Wilson, she adds nothing to the show. Brandy and Gibbsy are fine on thier own.

Why are people complaining about DUI's voice? Surely it's the content and agenda behind her speech that is repugnant more so than the pitch, tone etc.

Have a listen to the show mate. As soon as she speaks with that horrid accent, I cringe.

I cannot listen on the nights she's on. I tried to a couple of weeks ago but her voice is grating. Even when she's trying to talk sense, you cannot get past that voice.

" I think this...I think that... I think he should... My kids will not...I think...I, I, I, I"

She's got an opinion on everything just for opinions sake. Most of the topics brought up she has no idea about. Facts don't come into it with DUI...it's just "I think, IIIIIIIIIIIIIII"

She's one of those women who has to be blokier than the blokes. Sounds like a truck driver who's had a sex change.

 

[Brutus]

You listen to Brandy and Gibbsy have their say and when she chimes in it's like fingernails up a blackboard.

I tried listening tonight but I could only last 2 mins , her voice is appalling.

Once upon a time you had to have a good voice for radio , at least she's got the head for it though.

 

[Parramatta1947]

Well having women on the panel is meant to attract female listeners...........it is turning them off.

But nowhere near as attractive as one. Boom Boom!

Ratings were out today- hard to measure since they are over two slots but 2UE slot 4-7pm was up 0.4 and 7 to midnight was up 2.1. So good numbers, will be interesting to see if continues

 

[Brutus]

Sports Today is good, but only on the nights Gibbsy and Brandy are on.

DUI Rebecca Wilson is woeful. Her voice grating most of the time, but on radio it's multiplied times 100. She's horrible.

Thursday night is the night to listen to Sports Today - it's just Gibbsy and Brandy - the way it should be.

Tim Webster is ok, but he just agrees with everything everyone says. He has no firm opinions.

REBECCA 'DUI' WILSON: RUGBY LEAGUE COMMENTATOR AND ALLEGED EXPERT

On Friday night, the topic up for discussion on 2UE's Sports Today was famous fathers and sons in sport.

DUI comes up with a clanger - "What about Paul Mullins...didn't his father play in the 70s?"

Brandy and Gibbsy: "I think you mean Brett Mullins Rebecca"

And some people have the hide to call this woman an expert...even worse give her a friggin job.

This woman absolutely ruins the show when she's on. Gibbsy and Brandy must be so frustrated with her there. She has no idea about anything in sport, but that doesn't stop her from giving an opinion on everything. Opinions are great, but you have to be informed first.

aGREE TOTALLY BRUTUS, uninformed is an apt description of her, so many times I hear her on that show and her comments are just inane, lacking substance and a mere filler....like padding out a 1000 word essay with a lot of nothing in the middle

Exactly.
