I really like Tom English's articles and his voice has been a bit of a breath of fresh air on the Radio Scotland football shows...he talks a lot of sense and tells it as it is, but...
He makes these weird "swallowing noises" when he pauses mid-sentence when he is talking that just does ma nut in. It actually makes me physically cringe every time he does it. Is it just me?
Are there habits that radio journos do that annoy you a lot more than they rationally should? Chick Young's stuttering? Richard Gordon's habit of slowing down towards the end of a sentence because...he...is....,listening......to.......the. .......producer......,,.in his ear?
What radio pundits' sounds and styles and habits annoy you the most?

I know it's not punditry but I HATE it when the DJ blabs on without telling you what the record was he just played cos he just loves the sound of his own voice so much - drives me demented so it does

Cosgrove either guessing the last word his guest is going to say or repeating the last word they do say.
Every single sentence spoken by his studio guests are ruined in this manner. Twat.

The whole team of pundits taking the pee when Hibs fans complain of bias against Hibs in their commentary
Oh, and Billy Dodds inability to say situation
