HAAAS ANYONE SEEN Jamie O’Hara, Jason Cundy, talkSPORT Towers, the Sports Bar, Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, meltdowns and mayhem.

The most fiery and hilarious show on air has enjoyed its biggest year yet, with a viral moments catalogue worthy of rivalling Roy Keane.

Cundy’s decision to not wear a bow tie left O’Hara in stitches

Four of the best O’Hara meltdowns, Cundy’s ‘haaas anyone seen?‘, and, of course, our Sports Bar regulars were included in the incredible nominees list.

And on Monday night, Cundy and O’Hara – wearing their sharpest tuxedos – revealed the winners to you, the wonderful listeners who help make the show what it is.

SPORTS BAR PERSONALITY OF THE YEAR

1. Meltdown of the Year

Nominees:

O’Hara storms out of studio

Tottenham securing their biggest Champions League win for six years couldn’t stop the ex-Spurs star from leaving the talkSPORT studio.

A contender for the Puskas award from Micky van de Ven helped Thomas Frank’s side ease to a 4-0 win over Copenhagen at home.

However, the result came after the club’s dismal display in their 1-0 defeat to Chelsea, which Jason Cundy took delight in rubbing in.

And fuming with his Sports Bar co-host for preventing him from waxing lyrical about Spurs, O’Hara took his headphones off and left.

O’Hara on his Sky Sports Glasses

Eagled-eyed fans above will have noticed that the Love Undercover star didn’t remove any spectacles to storm out of our studio.

But the ‘really famous soccer player from England’ has repeatedly insisted his Sky Sports specs are no mere fashion statement.

Responding to Alan Brazil’s jibe, O’Hara claims his lenses are prescription and are necessary for reading the teleprompter.

Thankfully for the 39-year-old, we’re not just on Android, Fire, Google, Samsung, LG, and Apple TV – we also cater for near-sighted pundits.

O’Hara swears on air over Eze transfer – WINNER

Wearing his glasses may have helped him read the note from our production team inside talkSPORT’s Control room about no swearing.

Alas, a lack of a teleprompter couldn’t stop O’Hara from channelling his inner Ron Burgundy when Arsenal won the race for Eberechi Eze.

Tottenham were on the verge of signing Eze from Crystal Palace in August, before the Gunners hijacked the £60million deal.

And O’Hara’s subsequent tirade saw him drop the F-bomb, which was fortunately caught before it went live on YouTube and the airwaves.

HAS ANYONE SEEN…THIS MELTDOWN?

In true Eze fashion, Tottenham’s defence ‘put it on a plate’ for O’Hara, who effortlessly guided Cundy into the land of headloss.

The former Billericay Town manager watched his old team concede five goals to Paris Saint-Germain and was happy with what he saw.

“If we play like that in the Premier League, we’ll be all right. I’m telling you, we’ll be fine” – Spurs lost 2-1 to Fulham at home three days later.

Tottenham have only conceded five goals in a game once this season

2. The ‘I’m Not a Clown’ Award

Clown of the year nominees:

Ange Postecoglou

The former Tottenham and Nottingham Forest manager left his mark on English football with a catalogue of all-time quotes.

One of his most memorable came on the eve of the Europa League final, where he insisted he’s ‘not a clown’ and thus birthed this award.

Postecoglou’s bid to end a 17-year wait for a trophy came at the cost of overseeing Tottenham’s worst-ever Premier League finish.

As a result, an article suggested that he was ‘teetering between hero and clown’ depending on the result against Manchester United.

“Irrespective of tomorrow, I’m not a clown and never will be,” said Big Ange, whose side then delivered on his second-season promise.

Angry Matt (Spurs fan)

Tottenham supporter Matt has been a regular talkSPORT call-in – but not for much longer after being shown up by his girlfriend, Georgina.

His rants have called for Thomas Frank to be sacked, the club to get new owners, and even for O’Hara to stop raising his blood pressure.

However, Matt was left with egg on his face five days after Tottenham’s 1-0 defeat to Chelsea when it was revealed his other-half comes from a Blues family (or ‘west London gang’ as Cundy called it).

Moaning Mo [Liverpool fan] – WINNER

The no-nonsense talking Liverpool fan is no stranger to his bold and controversial takes on air.

Whether that be discussing his beloved Reds – urging the board to bin off Arne Slot and Mohamed Salah.

Or him ripping into England over their ‘boring’ style of play.

When Moaning Mo phones up the boys on air, all hell truly breaks loose.

Moaning Mo was thrilled to have won the award and answered the phone by saying: “Do I win money? What’s the point of this?

“Are you on the wind-up?”

100% Mo [Liverpool fan]

Cundy pulled out all the stops for his nemesis by actually pulling on a clown outfit in anticipation of 100 per cent Mo’s call last month.

The staunch Liverpool fan remained resolute in his claim that his beloved Reds would win it all despite a 3-0 defeat to Manchester City.

The Etihad humbling left the defending Premier League champions eight points off leaders Arsenal, having won just one of their last six top-flight fixtures, with the other five being losses.

However, those stats from Cundy fell on deaf ears as Mo claimed to have been hard of hearing and that the refs were terrible.

3. Sports Bar Co-Host of the Year

Nominees:

Jason Cundy
Carlton Cole
Adebayo Akinfenwa
Dean Saunders – WINNER
Jermaine Pennant

Joining the show, Saunders said: “Thanks Jamie and Jason. To win that award in front of you, is up there with some of these I’ve won.

“I’m on a bit of a roll at the minute and this is just the icing on the cake to win this.”

A fuming Cundy added: “I feel robbed, Deano.”

4. Call of the Year

Nominees:

100% Mo

Sports Bar regular admitted he was going on holiday after Liverpool’s 2-1 loss to Man United – O’Hara shot back: “If you get beat again mate, we’re phoning ya, I don’t care where you are!”

Angry Matt – Girlfriend is a Chelsea fan – WINNER

Is anything more Spursy than a die-hard Tottenham supporter finding the one at the home of their arch-rivals?

His pained reaction was there for all to hear across the airwaves after his girlfriend told Cundy and O’Hara her parents grew up supporting Chelsea.

Cue rapturous laughter from The Sports Bar boys.

While Cundy and O’Hara were trying to compose themselves, Matt simply told his better half: “Why did you do that to me?”

Ben Arsenal fan – ‘Yeah’

Musician Benny L left the Sports Bar in stitches with his iconic catchphrase that is now a staple of the Control Room soundboard.

Man United fan thinks he can win the league

‘You never know!’ – Sometimes you do know, Tom…

5. Haaaas Anyone Seen award

Nominees: Presented by Jason Cundy

Spurs – Super Cup Final

AJ Tracey and talkSPORT’s Molly Sumpter – ‘Molly from the office’ – found themselves in the firing line after Tottenham’s first loss to PSG.

Spurs led the Super Cup 2-0 in the 85th minute, but they collapsed late on to allow the French giants to equalise in stoppage time.

Frank’s side then forfeited another lead on penalties to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory as PSG came out on top to lift the trophy.

‘All or Nothing Doc…it’s nothing!’

Manchester United

The Red Devils came into the new season off the back of their worst-ever Premier League campaign by finishing 15th.

Ruben Amorim’s side were also beaten in the Europa League final, which saw more than 200 non-footballing club staff made redundant.

Despite this, Man United had splashed £170.7m in net spend this summer, and yet remain 13 points adrift of table toppers Arsenal.

No European football meant domestic cups were the club’s only chance of silverware this season, but a humiliating Carabao Cup exit to League Two Grimsby plunged a miserable 2025 to a new low.
