A number of Christmases ago there was a major issue following a thaw after a freezing cold spell. People were up in arms about the lack of action from the statutory agencies and Nolans telephone lines were red hot about it. He of course was on holiday. Come the 10.30 changeover Gerry Anderson remarked / Where's Nolan with all this going on? Biggest show in the country?? Biggest bed in the country. Oh how we miss him

Stephen does three shows and gets paid accordingly... stupid fuss over nothing
Least he's not doing the double.
Taxed accordingly also and lives here.... never watch or listen to the man that much, seems like a wind up merchant, getting people to bite, i must be on this forum ;)
Sat beside him literally at the Man Utd V Liverpool game at Old Trafford in Dec 14,I won VIP trip.He arrived late,never spoke the whole time,played with his phone the entire part of the game,sat on his own during the interval in the stand seat,even though there was hospitality on offer in an adjoining suite,and left ten minutes before the end uttering his first words of the afternoon "Cheerio Now!" A complete enigma
When Fearon met Nolan
Ye shouldve told him about yer big house
Only had one big house then! 😛
No-one is forced to pay a licence fee - if you don't want to have a licence don't get an aerial in the house. IMO Nolan is good value for money - the salary is across 4 shows and he on a good bit less than that ultra mouth piece on ITV Piers Morgan
Never heard of him. Who or what is he.

Not strictly true;
You need to be covered by a TV Licence to;
watch or record live TV programmes on any channel
download or watch any BBC programmes on iPlayer – live, catch up or on demand.
This applies to any provider you use and any device, including a TV, desktop computer, laptop, mobile phone, tablet, games console, digital box or DVD/VHS recorder.
you'd realistically need to cut yourself off from any form of media to not have to pay a TV license.

So Tony as some cheek then giving out about how Nolan conducted himself at the match, when he himself was there on another freebie.
I listen to him on Five Live at the weekends. Helps me wind down.
Does he over-emphasize his accent?
Do all ye Nordie bize say poines when saying pounds?
He did some sort of a program a few years ago when he came Dine Site. I thought he came across as a complete and utter tool - fcuk sake - he was acting as if he was Columbus exploring Amerikay.

I wonder if he knew who he was sitting beside as he fumbled nervously with his phone.....probably texting the police....
According to the Grauniad Nolan comes in at number 9
1. Chris Evans £2.2m - £2.25m
2. Gary Lineker £1.75m - £1.8m
3. Graham Norton £850,0000 - £899,999
4. Jeremy Vine £700,000 - £749,999
5. John Humphrys £600,000 - £649,999
6. Huw Edwards £550,000 - £599,999
7. Steve Wright £500,000 - £549,999
= 8. Claudia Winkleman £450,000 - £499,999
= 8. Matt Baker £450,000 - £499,999
= 9. Nicky Campbell £400,000 - £449,999
= 9. Andrew Marr £400,000 - £449,999
= 9. Stephen Nolan £400,000 - £449,999
It's in sterling of course so it's not worth as much as it used to

These plonkers have seldom if at all set foot in "Ireland" except maybe to go to Dublin for a shopping trip or a weekend in Donegal.

Depends on the location 😉
How is lineker worth that much? Or Claudia winkleman........
I always laugh when I see the pay for our 'top stars'. I see some terrible broadcasters on the RTE list and the talk is that they get that because they are the best. But honestly I ask you in terms of BBC NI and RTE who is after these people.
Like Tubridy (495,000) and Joe Duffy (416,000) are on serious dosh here but if RTE said F off and we are cutting your wages they wouldn't have much places to go. TV3 can't afford them. The commercial radio stations don't have the cash either.
When I watch Nolan he seems a good man to get a row going but then can't really bring it down apart from being overbearing. I wouldn't rate him at all.
On an aside I am surprised Graham Norton is not on more. He is one lad who literally would have his pick of jobs.

£1.8 million for Lineker presenting MOTD is mental.
Lineker and Huw Edwards read an autocue. Graham Norton's overall figure appears "low" as it doesn't include The Graham Norton show for which he is paid via a production company. Whether you like him or not he's chat show royalty compared to his peers.

Proportionally not as bad given the minimal level of talent required to do Linekers job. Shearer is a woefully bland pundit though so you're right.
Makes you wonder what Sky are paying Gary Neville??

I happen to think public broadcasting is a good deal. It has a remit to educate and inform, which is important in a democracy but the private sector isn't always as good at. In fact the private sector can make good money with misinformation, evidenced by Fox News and certain bits of Fleet Street. It's good to have a bit of quality content out there that's well funded.
I spend quite a bit of time working with Radio 4 podcasts playing on the headphones, that's a treasure trove of interesting stuff. People like to gripe about the BBC but they don't know how good they have it. Try watching a bit of American public TV which is woefully underfunded and you'll see why it's important. American National Public Radio kicks out a lot of good stuff though, but then you don't need as big a budget for that.

Stew are you the most right wing eejit on here!?
Nolan is worth it like him or loathe him he still gets the ratings and in fairness he actually works hard as he has a number of shows on the go. On the other hand why the fook would you pay claudia half a million bland beyond belief and completely replaceable by just about anyone and you could pay them 50000. Shearer is also shocking just paying for the name they would be better getting more guys like kilbane better and way cheaper
I'm with Dennis Bradleys opinion about Nolan. This place needs a different type of dialogue to drag people beyond the themuns and usuns positions many hold on to.

Nolan responds to the photo doing the rounds on social media over the last week or two
https://www.belfastlive.co.uk/news/stephen-nolan-speaks-out-over-14647943#ICID=sharebar_twitter
The big man isn't happy!!!
Personal statement from me :
I have been the victim of a malicious social media campaign this week.
Internet trolls distorted a television image and then nastily and falsely used it to suggest I had been acting inappropriately in a foreign country.
In actual fact , the real image was from my Nolan Live tv show, of me in November 2016 on BBC Northern Ireland television , in my capacity as a tv presenter .
18 months later , the tv images were then twisted and distorted into lies .
Those lies were then spread across social media this week with falsehood , in order to hurt me and cause me distress.
It is an extraordinary level of malicious vindictiveness .
For those who retweeted or liked or shared the defamation , they too are vicious trolls who are no better than the keyboard warriors who created it .
My legal team has logged those cowards who shared , liked , retweeted or commented on this defamatory personal attack against me.
If they want to apologise , they would be wise to email my lawyer Paul Tweed very quickly at ptweed@tweedlaw.co.uk
Bullying on the internet costs lives.
On behalf of all those children and adults who have found themselves bullied online , I will be using my strength and resources to legally pursue the trolls who defamed me so that they cannot bully anybody else.
I would like to thank my friends and colleagues who came to my support this week .
I'd like to thank the numerous politicians who called me personally to offer their support .
I should also thank the Northern Irish media and newspapers , who did not publish the image & therefore rejected this nasty, outrageous attempt to distress me .
Finally , I need to thank the Northern Ireland listeners and viewers who have bombarded me with support this week.
I have a very special relationship with you - even those of you who I wind up ! - and the only way I can pay you back is by me continuing to fight for your voices to be heard on radio and tv .
I am currently in the USA for a BBC project but I'll talk to you all on the radio next week when I get home .
All the best , Stephen

Except Nolan is not on the run following a contentious rape trial and he has already engaged Paul Tweed to begin the process of dealing with these idiots. Previous follow ups on twitter abuse in GB have been successful. Anyone who sends an apology to Tweed Solicitors will be taken off the list.
Surely liking a post on Facebook can have no comeback. Regarding sharing and retweeting, does the responsibility for moderating content not lay with facebook and twitter?

So what's your excuse?
If yer mans name had been Paul Tweet instead that wouldve been pretty cool
Nolan is fair game. Likes trying to ruin other people; if he can give it then he needs to be able to take it.
Got a good laugh out of Nolan this morning with the usual suspects on talking about flegs, Wee Jamie Bwyson and Claire Hanna as well as a few others, same generic shite debate until Stevie took a call for a lad in Downpatrick with an English accent (that threw me a bit).
This lad gave his English perspective on flags and banners in Cantrell Close or wherever and then asked Jamie did he know any known UVF criminals and Jamie trotted out the usual that he didn't and was against violence in every way, contact the PSNI and so forth and next thing yer man asks Jamie about an individual and he blurted the name out over the airways, big Stevie nearly had a canary, backtracking like a good one, BBC does not condone and so forth and wee Jamie in the background trying to get a word in but obviously the mike had been turned down and muted.

Heard it myself and turned it off not long after. I find myself asking the same question everytime, why does the public have to fund this utter shite!? Why does some spastic loyalist with a speech impediment get so much airtime? Like why even debate it, what's there to debate? The guy is wrong no matter what way you look at it yet Nolan and his producers have him on every single f**king time there's something us v them related. No doubt in the interests of "balance and impartiality".

Biggest show in the Country... ::). The North of this Country is so f**ked up you couldn't explain it too an outsider and SN makes his money and fame from stoking the fires and stiring the sh1t, the politicians in this place are so corrupt and bitter they shouldn't be anywhere near Government Buildings representing anyone. I can safely say that during the last election i cast my last vote...come to think of it I feel the same way about religion :(
Good rant!!
Its not on the listen again. They must of edited it out. :(
Gave it a listen, definitely has been edited out.
Alan McBride, whose wife died in the Shankill Bomb, and always speaks very well on these matters, made an absolute wee boy of Bryson about his right to speak on behalf of victims.

If Nolan and his contributors/guests actually waited until everyone was finished talking they'd have no problem making wee boys out of the likes of Bryson. Fact of the matter is the continually interrupt and talk over one another that the winning message almost always gets lost in the noise. It's my biggest frustration with Nolan's program.
The SDLP woman, Alan McBride, and even The other lady who lost her daughter had so much to say that actually would have buried Bryson and shown him go for the cut throat Petty point scorer that we all know he is. However they all lost their way and were pushed to lose their way by both Nolan and Bryson. The constant interjection and shouting over is infuriating and the sad thing is I think it's done on purpose because rational discourse would cut the show to 20 minutes.
Mary, the DUP loving catholic who said everyone is going to hell was another f**king dose.
Stephen Nolan is a shit stirring, sensationalist p***k of the highest order. It genuinely astounds me that so many people, like those on here complaining about him, continue to listen to him and massage his ratings ego.
What typifies Nolan for me was him spending months criticising politicians for not compromising to get the institutions back. Lo and behold the first day news leaked that a compromise may have been reached and Nolan was all over it the next morning like a rash, whipping unionism into an absolute frenzy over the news that the DUP had made an apparent compromise on the Irish Language. I posted here before that in the space of the ten days in/around that time in February, Nolan had Jim Allister on as a guest on his radio/tv shows on the 9th, 11th, 12th, on BOTH his radio and TV shows on 14th, on 15th and the 19th. That's seven times in ten shows. Who else (Bryson aside) gets airtime like that). And then when the deal collapsed, guess who was back on his radio show/high horse, damning politicians from a height for failing to agree said compromise? I stopped listening to any of his output since.
Since then, if twitter/gaaboard etc is anything to go by, the p***k seems to exist solely to give airtime to Jamie Bryson. Bryson in particular gets essentially NO other media interest other than from Nolan. Imagine how much better off we would be if the man got so little ratings that it was taken off the air. We wouldn't be on here complaining about Jamie Bryson's latest comments what with his sole outlet taken from him.

Well, if things do deteriorate back to violence, the useless f**ker will have blood on his hands.

People listening to it also validate people that go on it and make it less likely that insignificant people like bryson will disappear into obscurity(or somewhere like prison) where they belong.

Absolutely. If the BBC axed him today Sky Sports would sign him tomorrow. Probably for more!
Know someone who knows Nolan and when they went to Nolan for advice on salary negotiations was told "whatever they offer, double it!".
All funded by TV licence payer. Ridiculous money for many who read an autocue. Not much sign of austerity there.
I'm actually surprised that Graham Norton salary is as low as it is (on paper anyway) and Steve Wright's is so high. Most of the bigger earners are multi-taskers whereas Steve Wright only appears to do the afternoon show on Radio 2.
Shearer's salary is a joke.

That'll just be the salary for the radio show and the likes of Eurovision. The TV show will be a payment to his production company, which would be millions.
