Bristol Boy Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Gaunt used to do the "Doris in Dunstable Talks About Iraq" style phone ins (not sport) for Three Counties Radio-Beds-Herts-Bucks.He was a bit of a hot head who had the tables turned on him by a paper called the Beds On Sunday when he got "doorstepped" and really didn't like it.Got a move to London Radio and the rest is history, as they say.

Keepers Ball Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 John Gaunt Its because of this arrogant t***** I no longer listen to the 10-1 slot on Talksport.So self obsessed and woe betide you disagree with him...he starts calling you all the names under the sun.I heard from a mate in work that he was calling Bristolians "Numpties" on his show this morning.This guy even had an on air argument with the breakfast show co-host Graham Beecroft shouting him down at the top of his voice screaming "I don't need tips on how to present a radio show from the likes of you" and then boasting "How many Sony awards have you got?" only for Beecroft to remind him "they were awarded for the radio station,the producers as well as him"....and boy did the FAt Gaunty get upset.There is an unofficial Talksport forum and the majority of posters detest Gaunt with a passion...so much so the fat #### threatened the forum with court if they no longer ceased "slagging" him off....now they just refer to him as "the bloke who we cant mention" amongst other things.

Flaxbourton Red Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Sounds like imported amercanised sensationalisation of the media.Talksport are attempting to manipulate you in to talking about their radio station. This radio station is reliant on people talking about it raises awareness of its existence;essential for maximising advertising revenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 The man's two major employers are TalkSport and The Sun. If this doesn't cause you to take an instant dislike to him then nothing will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His pontificating on Sky News is highly entertaining...and his articles in the scum are typical of the rag anyway. hand shandy expert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And majors on the state of this crazy country.Perhaps you should listen to his slant on political issues & you would vote him in as Prime Minister,He does wind people up (me included after his "small town club outburst today) - but he does promote & highlights all that is wrong with this country.

If this doesn't cause you to take an instant dislike to him then nothing will.Dislike - so the biggest selling Newspaper & the biggest talkshow audience on radio is reason to dislike him?So I take it your a Daily Mail reader & listen to BBC Five Dead?
