    Lucy is my youngest daughter and she came runner up in the 'Face of Hull' competition behind Kofi. Both were offered jobs at the BBC and my daughter was given two shows of her own on Radio Humberside straight away. Kofi joined the television crew. The competition was after all, the face of Hull, not the voice of Hull.
    RH will miss Dave Burns massively. His mid morning show was very popular and the best they had, in my opinion. But the writing was on the wall when the last hour of his phone-in show was given over to basically a golden oldies section. I'm not a fan of his City commentaries mainly because I am usually at the games myself, but they were a godsend when I couldn't get to a game and before the club started streaming away games. I do know many still depend and look forward to them. They were missed greatly when he was banned. I have no reason to tune in to RH when he leaves and BBC Radio Humberside will not be the same without him.

    I used to drive home 90 mins from work daily and listened to R4 and the Archers religiously, wouldn't miss it. Then I started working from home, never listened to it since. Weird.

    Plenty of City fans are involved with and do shows for 107FM, formally Hull Kingston Radio.

    Decent summary (maybe a bit too kind to Lloyd though).
    Andy Comfort and Lizzie Rose were good together on the early morning show.

    I’ve not heard him for months and he hasn’t tweeted since December.

    I'm fairly sure he was on after the main matches recently.

    it kind of annoyed me that he thought our version of 'fools rush in' was by elvis, but i'm over that, and apart from that he was okay. he even joined the nick lowe fan club, even if he was 40+ years behind.

    It’s an incredibly poor decision by the BBC. The short sighted people slagging Burnsy off <doh> He’s a great advocate for the area and he’s done a lot of good stuff beyond football commentary. Promoting local talent and the region.

    He’ll be a great loss.

    I don’t know why some people can’t just criticise a person’s abilities without suggesting that the only reason they got the job in the first place was because they’re a minority and need to fill diversity quotas.

    Do people ever mention Lee Dixon’s or Danny Murphy’s skin colour or gender when they criticise their ****e commentary and punditry? Seems to be only BAME people have their skin colour mentioned when people question their competency at a job.

    It shows how much attention I pay, I never noticed that Burnsy, Swanny and Gollym were black. :emoticon-0104-surpr

    Bring back Charles Ekberg to Blunder...
    If you thought Gollum was bad/terrible/inept/useless (all those words), you wouldn't have heard anything as bad as Charlie doing the Codheads.
