Hardly obtuse, one second you're saying we're peddling a narrative, and then following that by saying we should make sure everyone has a different opinion.
Fairly clear, lad.
Now, I'm contradicting myself by being arsed about what you say- but nowhere have I said the above, lad. When you overload, and I concede, it is impossible to know what guests are going to say-though you can have an idea if they are regulars- all the more reason to have 'a firm hand on the tiller' is what I said.
I heard Klopp called out personally, by yourself on one show, Peter Hooton on another and John, Jay, et al on the podcast in question as 'fitting the FSG model' or not really meaning what he say's, or alluding to that. You were called on it, as was Peter, but on the recent show, all they were subjected to was 'Devils Advocate' by Rob; whom I'm a big fan of as this thread will testify, who prefaced that by saying he agreed with them? I took that to confirm there were misgivings about the boss and I challenged it. Nothing more, nothing less. On you came and accused me of being 'disrespectful' to you and TAW, nothing of which could be further from the truth.
Alright, 'narrative' was too strong a word; I never mentioned the A word, you did, I did listen to the three shows consecutively, as I mentioned, but you interviewed Klopp. Does he seem like a guy who would be influenced by FSG? Would he act as their mouthpiece as some have claimed? Does he say things we might just want to hear? Listen to the podcasts again, as I have.
Finally, I came on this thread to make an observation about one show, which did not have Neil at the helm. He is, without doubt, the best football frontman in the media. I'm not blowing smoke up his arse, it's a fact. It's one show amongst many that are brilliant and the quality of journalists you attract epitomises your rise. Far from being a gang of lads having a chat or whatever, these people have bought into your style and content as have we as subscribers. I can disagree with some of the content without being accused of talking bollocks, full stop. There are many on here who will contend that is all I talk but that's bollocks.....
