gbandit Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Fair enough, it can be useful. Ive said it before on here but I cannot even begin to describe how appalling most forums are including most imdb boards. Still haven't worked out if this forum genuinely is way above average or whether football forums in general have a better standard (RTG and rawk not included) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Most of it is absolutely atrocious, I only post as i'm pretty opinionated and it lets me vent my rants when i'm bored, I never really expect any replies, and especialy not balanced ones Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 He even admitted he had no clue what he was talking about. Not like he was trying to get people to believe he's an art intellectual or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I love the fact he believes he has a good idea about what the paintings are portraying, yet clearly knows f*** all. That is the case with anyone talking about art, even the so called "experts", they just talk shite and idiots fall for it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 BBC budget cuts - had to find someone who could walk to Shepherds Bush. Joey did ok, looked a wee bit nervous but only to be expected as Paxman is much harder than him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 So, is he saying anything remotely interesting? (I think I know the answer...) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 So, is he saying anything remotely interesting? (I think I know the answer...) No, mainly because he had no experience of working with Roy Hodgson and therefore couldn't provide any insights over and above what you or I could pick up from the papers. Did the BBC pick him in the hope that he was going to say something controversial? Not for the first time, I wonder what the QPR players are feeling when their captain seems so keen to put himself in the limelight. They're in a relegation battle, but Joey seems to think he's a bit above it all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Guess I shouldn't be surprised that he said fuck all. He won't mind though, Joey does like the attention. Aye, think the BBC called him up to do the show because he's "controversial." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 It was a pretty bland interview, but he is damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. Says fuck all and its boring, say something controversial and he's a twat. Clearly the beeb wanted him to let rip. Cronky, I'm would guess he was asked to do an interview just like many footballers past and present will be this week on the new England managers. On this occasion I don't think the interview is a "oh look at me" interview??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Tbf, he did say some decent points regarding England. i.e. The North view the team as totally southern based now which is correct. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky, I'm would guess he was asked to do an interview just like many footballers past and present will be this week on the new England managers. On this occasion I don't think the interview is a "oh look at me" interview??? My query is why did the Beeb pick Joey, and why did Joey accept the invitation. He's never played for Hodgson, and he only has one international cap. His lack of relevant experience was painfully obvious. I found the interview annoying and embarrassing, which is the same reaction that I've had for a number of Joey's public pronoucements over the last year or so. It's embarrassing because he seems to be trying to live down the image of an unintelligent footballer, but actually rarely has anything original or interesting to say, falling back on populist cliches instead. It's annoying because he really ought to be concentrating on his day job as club captain, which, judging from QPR's league position, he perhaps isn't doing very well. I also find it annoying that a number of people seem to be lapping up his posturing as though it was all very profound. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
