Radio for the West many. Seem to me was 95.6 Jenny Jenny the Goober's the. Yes we're ditching the. Thing. The mileage is but I do it right let's talk let's talk Jose Marino I understand that he's just checked out of a hotel and much as that on his final bill was half a 1000000 pounds that is an obscene amounts of money 500000 pounds as we understand we also understand how accurate it is his payoff will be the thickened of well put it this way it depends there are conflicting numbers out there but over 10 mil and Somas even one pipe was reported 20000000 pounds and that is just an obscene amount of money for failure surely we can agree on a money you fulfill in the legal obligation with a contract you know if they want to get rid of him then they have to pay out the cunt I get older so there's 2 ways we can discuss this we can talk about these incredibly eye watering large amounts of cash spent on hotel stays and we can talk about the 10s of millions of pounds in a pay off and also what just a prudent to make it a little bit more interesting than than just talking about a loaded a load of cash why don't we talk about some of the finest hotels that people may have stayed on and and also. Do you get what you pay for with hotels now have a little Think back to yes they show when I spoke to a guy we were talking about dining out some Christmas day compared to eating at home we spoke to a guy called in who I thought got a remarkable dog and over Christmas and let me remind you of the cupful hotel in Dudley. It was listen to this 144 pound a person and I'm just trying to think you know he's been staying at this hotel Marino in Manchester he's running a tub of 500000 pounds what difference is the seriously if you think about it what difference is that if you're just going to have a hotel room as a base it's going to be a suite there's going to be loads I get all of that but this cop phone hotel I'm not suggesting he stays at Dudley but for $144.00 pound this is what I want to try and get out you get what you pay for all was he ripped off you could argue 144 pounds per person so him and his Mrs 2 nights a pound you check in on Christmas Eve you wake up Christmas Day I think you haven't heard yet you have been a Christmas Eve wake up as a Christmas breakfast then you have your Christmas lunch then you have afternoon tea then you have. A session in the bar and then you have another night sleep in the hotel so tonight sleep Christmas Day Food Boxing Day breakfast and Christmas Eve afternoon say thats it. her talk about football without mentioning folks. Well let's talk about the movie. like some think listen just see not it's an obscene about a cut make to spend the the hotels think it's is over 500000 kind of section depends and knowing but the lowery in munchers to 537000 puns not including incidentals forward an incidental big to dental well with up they like a or to be a bit from the many pawar don't know what's incidental 537000 pounds on again reports that he was paid the thick and a 20 milk how accurate that is i just don't know so let's talk about The footballing side in the financial side of football let's talk to Serge Adams from the money website Stretton news T.V. Without talking to too much about why he failed How do people feel about the dough is being given good motive for burning him good morning money good money for Manchester. How do you feel about those being given. You know. We live in a world where sports entertainment is. The most lucrative in the world and. I see Manchester United you know where the biggest biggest brand in the world you know the figures are just figures and you know I mean I'm not paying for scoring for me it's coming from the owners and then the day it's about time here and put some money in the pocket so you know so many other pockets and paid out because you know the for so long just you know just milking the club from the money so it doesn't really bother me to be back. Again people you know in Manchester who could only dream of you know for salaries of 6 figures and here we see him spending half a mil just on a on a hotel bill and also the fact that he failed as well is the is the no resentment to the he seems to be financially rewarded for such abject failure. Is a very funny industry the only industry where a direct slush mama just last coach that's whatever you want to call them can get can get fired can fail at it can fail at the business of a favorite what business is what you know what football is a business to get reappointed elsewhere to tell me the Sainsbury's direct. You know whatever it is you know we have a big business cafe or a big business you know if a look at the numbers that they want so what ever gets stopped and they get reappointed a competitive. Business whatever it might be. You know it's. Always a very funny game the 40. And the day's big big big big money to be made by the agents by the Taliban the people involved if they had been there you know I don't think anyone really and it was just kind of you know resented to the fact that you know what is going to change your eyes if I got the bin from the B.B.C. I got sucked for the B.B.C. There's no I don't even think I'd get into the job in radio present and such because it's a thing you can't take anything for granted in this in radio presenter but you're right in football David Moyes for example when he was sacked was Dunstall football now which is so NOT didn't want to do but I think we can still circle navigates you're right he would have been offered jobs not maybe in the top flight but he would have been offered a job maybe in a legal someone would have been contacting his agent on them and they wanted to present. I mean even David Moyes they should have a sense of problem for the industry you know the junior what I call journeyman management right people are McCarthy and you know Hugh Steve Bruce some people are you know you from club to club to club to club you know you know that they do well one season and they get something back then maybe a report that I was wearing you know it's just it's a it's a funny OK It is a funny set up by the way you calling it's a funny old guy was not a 000 What was his name was and how well do you search I'm sorry I. Got 20 years on you but there was a Saturday morning show in St John and. You know what. Was it grieves you said apparently. Yes crazy I. Never heard of him. But. Graves search take it easy Thank you pal thanks for your time Nice to speak Jimmy Greaves It's a funny L.K. Right we got loads of stuff on this oh. Here we go people calling in we're going to go to speak to some callers in a little while about some of the hotels lifestyle Yes. I'm going to London in January for a long weekend I could have paid when I was looking at the price of hotels it was shocking could apply 850 pounds a night puts tons are I'll go into a Chinese hotel for 3 nights for 111 pounds for the 3 nights OK well I can. Because of you heard of easy hotels yes I have now and I don't think that I would stay in one because they are tiny tiny rooms on one yet well by 6 only but also you need is a BAD at the end of the day is an easy Hotel right there in the news today because they are offering was the story hotels over the Christmas period from there we go live to look oh. Yeah that's what they used to show that. You don't really see them street vendors and even though you don't do you know or nice you know Christmas bargain extravaganza with room 599 in Liverpool Manchester why the hell was he paid 600 knicker a night. Is he paying more for the previously Rotherby luxury let's face it small room he's a small bloke at a call. OK. 6 to do it's going to. Run away. Every time I guess to. Have it something else let's. Stop. Shot. West Street. Car alarm or start of the day everyone. Have a little think about tomorrow we're going to do a little now. A little lever if you like. And it involves a listener who hoof who saw a woman with a pram pushing a pram drop to 5 pound notes to the new 5 pound notes by the way anybody else find them slippy you can easily let them slip party a personal because the fabric or some because the plastic anyway I didn't know that's a side issue because that's what the less the claims as well that the new 5 is in the 10 is the reason just the sort of fall out of pocket personnel that were dropped to 5 pound notes now the woman pushing the pram completely oblivious to this now the listener cluck the woman dropped the 5 pound notes and so did some fella the fella dropped the listener clucking he dropped the woman dropping to 5 pound notes so apart from the only drop the 25 pound notes she knew the head plucked him and he knew that she had plucked him OK So what happens. So the fella went over to pick the 25 pound notes up and then promptly ran after this woman pretending to top it on the shoulder and give the 25 pound notes back so fooling the listener into thinking that he'd done the right thing not the very last 2nd he actually liked it OK when I say liked it didn't like it but he just walked off in a different direction so it was a little bit of pantomime giving the impression that he was going after the woman with the 25 pound notes because he knew that the listener had clocked him OK So tomorrow what we're going to do tomorrow it's a bit of a moral dilemma what would you do if you saw someone drop 25 pound notes I could tell you what I would do I would stop her on the shoulder and say sweetheart let me be a good Samaritan that's what I would do now if I just found 25 pound notes I didn't know where the coat from Quite simply don't hate me but I pocket them you know I'm just a normal bloke but if I knew where the 25 pound note to come from then I would touch him on the shoulder without a shadow of a doubt without a shadow of the doubt but there is I can hear the questions Doris I wonder what the threshold is say someone drop 10 grand in cash what do you do so that's what we're going to do tomorrow after the interview with Millie Milly's the listener and I've done a little interview with Millie and and one of the reasons that Millie from Austin You may recognize the name and you can recognize the the Barbados voice one of the reason of the reasons that she didn't tackle that one challenge it was that and you can hear words tomorrow was that she didn't want to get stopped now there was nothing to say that this guy was carrying a knife nothing at all but nevertheless that is her perception of people sad isn't it and that's sad 1st of all that so it would just pocket the tender side even further that they would make a song and dance and a bit of pun so to to fool people into thinking he was going to do the right thing . But Stephen Sutter but somebody doesn't feel confident in actually challenging him and say Excuse me Mr I saw you do the right thing because in his words she didn't get stopped so we'll do that tomorrow I've got the old yeah it's only a 3 and a half minute interview but I've got the odium maybe we can have a little chat about that tomorrow morning you know a bit of Christmas morality or lack of it and then comes. Good morning hi I'm RIGHT NOW MAKE ME AND vs where you stayed. Stopped in the family's Monte Carlo great songs for months tell us all about them just googling as we speak tell us all about that.

Now I know what you're talking about because funds of Formula One Monaco that's the most exciting for me anyway I'm not a big fan of Formula One But I do like the Monaco Grand Prix because that's the bit the really tight like a an S. And they can only do like 25 miles an hour around and then they go hell for leather underneath in the little total so stun sions and. Blocks on the side of the on the side of the tunnel and and that's the hotel above is it. Yeah and did you stay in the Formula One. Hole works already with the family well so I don't access to the south. Back. On the classic. It was on a back. To an old classic. X. Form of the long term. You know coming down the gap in something better than the formula was you know when I was a kid I used to have Top Trumps and I always remember the J.P.S.

Good morning good morning Paul thanks ever so much for listening and picking up the phone so I don't know the name of the 3 actors or the name of the movie So Kevin is going to have to tell you if you're right or wrong so what do you know Sean.

Can I start with like. That when we. Should thanks for playing on the sides have switched cats less time I was around your bachelor pad didn't I notice you had a D.V. Date was not lethal weapon. Let's go to Mark in the city said. I don't know your big fun of it for the thrill is what you cut I amok I don't know where I might fight for the time like. Oh OK Right right go on that all or table that going just take you know. What you know they got they told Gary. As you go 4 out of 4 or 3 of the 4 he has got out a full. Out of 4 Mark has got 4 well the mark there we go. Are you know lethal weapon was a Christmas movie did you know it's a Christmas film Mark. Well there's that thing you know when I write on the front garden. You know Christmas tree even if you. Only imagine so yeah so it's a. It's a basically constitutes a Christmas film a film with a Christmas tree in the living room I don't think it does I think let's look at. It was released on March the city is going to let you go Mark thank you Joy you're up to Christmas and all of that it was released on March the 6th 1987 Number One of the box office for 3 weeks it grossed over $120000000.00 it cost $50000000.00 to make made quite a bit of money it's about to be paired cops who are completely opposite but the most going to put aside their differences in order to catch a gang of drug smugglers and there were the 2 or 3 follow ups to as well and the 2nd one Lethal Weapon 21 after the Lethal Weapon 3 OK I think it's a Lethal Weapon 4 and you know it was just it's got a Christmas backdrop to it set around Christmas time I'm not sure that that falls down to our remit you know being a Christmas movie No I don't think so no not at all because it wasn't released on Christmas because by that logic if you applied the sets of rules then Eastenders tonight if he stands is on if you see any Christmas tree in the background then it's a Christmas special. And it's not as if you're. Well no no no no no no no even if it was no if lethal weapon was shot on Christmas Day but there's a still only one Christmas tree in the lounge and that's the only reference to Christmas that doesn't make it a Christmas film now partly the whole film's around Christmas around Christmas time OK but that doesn't make it a Christmas film.
