Liked him on the Den. Haven't liked him since. Arrogant dweeb..
Dislike him, but hate Harney a lot more, so I'm back Darcy on this one
used to listen to his show alot but can't stand him now or his other half,they're morphing into the one pompous,arrogant,self obsessed person,putting it mildly he's a muppet
Seeing as Ray himself is so fond of petitions, shall we start one to ask him to stop using the word "mum"?
I use the word mum. Nothing wrong with it!
I actually like Mr Darcy, but then am a romantic at heart.
I used to listen to his show every day at work way back when and it was always good fun. he's gone so unbearably smug now. Does his missus Jenny Kelly still appear on the show and is Fixit Friday still a regular?

Likewise. Though I'm actually backing Ray as opposed to just plain old back.Originally Posted by jebus

The ball is round and has many surprises.

Very good, MM, I must be the only one getting the literary references here this week.
more bass
I got it, but assumed it was accidental, so apologies MM for not giving you credit.
Another stupid, pointless petition? That's just what the internet needs.Seeing as Ray himself is so fond of petitions, shall we start one to ask him to stop using the word "mum"?
Ceci n'est pas une signature
Sorry Noby but am a deliberate smarta**e.
If you to work after 9 and you have a choice on the main channels between Tubridy, Gerry Ryan and D'Arcy so I go to "My Nine at Nine" on Q102 (Dublin only I think).
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
i said this to mate of mine a while ago and it seems to be manifesting itself even more so now...but i think he is turning into Gerry Ryan..and thats the last thing we need....
My Goal Is To Deny Yours...
I met him a couple of times as my brother was on Blackboard Jungle for three successive years. He seems like a gentleman and my brother only had good things to say about him.
he might have been ok then,he's just a knob now
In fact most Irish people would refer to their mother as Mam. The first time I heard Mum used in Ireland by the d4 brigade at University. Its fine by me them saying it as that's their accent. But can you honestly tell me that normal Dubs and country people would have said "Mum" all their lives? b ollox they would
I did. I grew up in Monaghan. I spent first 3 years of my life in Canada where I learned to speak but dont call her Mom. My kids call me Mum. Nothing wrong with it at all. But then maybe we are posh!
Just thinking of this and taking it forward, we always called our grandmothers "Granny" and my kids do same with my mum but they have to call their Dublin Grandmother "Gran". Most people in Monaghan area talk about their "Nan" "Nana" or "Nanny". Dont get this Nan stuff and a Nanny is someone rich people hire to look after their kids.
Totally wrong thread for this debate I know so if Mods want to move it into a mum/mam/granny/nan thread, work away.

My young daughter spent the day with Ray and Co in Dublin zoo as guests of his show. She was really impressed with him and thought that he was a lovely person. That is fair enough in my book , but then again she hasn't listened to him over a period of time on his radio show slowly but surely ascending into the crevice of his own anus.
Fair enough that he has a rant at Mary Harney on his show but it begs the question why is she bothering to discuss such a controversial topic on what is effectively tabloid radio. Ray should stop with trying to be serious and do the radio that had people listening because in fairness it was alright tripe to pass away the morning to.
As for his constant referring to Mrs D'Arcy as Jenny Kelly , please Ray stop doing it and give her the respect to call her what she should be called " your one married to the small guy off the radio with the oversized head ".
I'll update this next year.
eh?
