Porky parry is hosting 606 on radio 5 tonight, i thought 5 live was supposed to be a serious news and sport station. Mike Parry is a clown (funny granted but still a clown). How long before he starts on with stuff about "horses should have wing mirrors" on a serious football station.

He also argued (quite forcefully I might add) that in the future the 100 metres would be run and complete in a second.

To be fair, if there's one show that his irreverent, madcap style would suit, it's that one. Good luck to the man, always liked him at talkSPORT.

That's not his idea.

A pub near the Knavesmire in York had a round table 25 years ago.

According to an interview in his local paper (Portsmouth area?), it was to do with contractual negotiations that has been on going since last summer.
