Bluebirds fan on Radio 2's Popmaster this morning. Did well - beat an Ipswich supporter on a tie-break.

I must admit that I was quite disappointed that he didn’t finish off his dedications with a good luck to The City tonight.

Forgetting the Ipswich result for a minute, what was his 3 in 10?

Getable for a change. I usually have a complete brain freeze, even if it's an artist I like.

He said he and his son have season tickets. He then went on to say his son supports the Bluebirds, he is a Liverpool fan but it's too hard to get tickets so he goes to City instead.

Any true fan would rather wish Swansea do poorly than wish Cardiff good luck

I only got two of FM from reading this and they have probably had dozens.

I find pop master can be either ridiculously easy or tough.
The ones that get the max are usually proper geeks mind.

I used to think so too but he's grown on me over the years.

Ken's good at what he does, especially when hosting Popmaster.

He's had various people stand in for him and nobody could hold a candle to him.
I find he makes the nervous feel at ease and the cocky he subtlely takes down a peg.

Exactly, he’s the best on daytime Radio Two by far. As you say, the ones that stand in for him are, very often, worse than the contestants for continuity. I’d imagine live radio is quite demanding, hitting time slots, news etc, then an unknown occurrence like a Popmaster tie break which has no time limit. Ken takes it all in his stride perfectly. Very good broadcaster.
