[On the Grid]

So badly out of context this. He was totally normal and said nowt important to warrant the dissection on here 🙄

What was the actual event?

Well, if we're going with that line, I found it very surprising that he's still wanting to drag up old arguments in public about everything in the summer being everyone else's fault. Because that was literally his first contribution to the evening, off a total soft ball from Raisbeck.

 

Then I think it was his second or third answer where he was going on about how the transfer market must have changed a lot because he hadn't expected it to be so difficult coming here when he did - which didn't exactly make him sound like a European sports director with his finger on the pulse. 

 

Honestly, it would be easy to make him look a lot worse...

They had an event at stack tonight, broadcast online too. The main event was most of the leadership team being interviewed on stage together. Eales, Mitchell, Silverstone, COO, CFO. Plus legends later (Cisse) and women footballers.

 

To be honest I didn't realise most people weren't aware of it. Would've approached it differently if I'd realised it wasn't already being discussed.

So just like a talk-in type of thing? I must admit I zone out of things during international windows and had no idea anything like this was going on and obviously missed any mention of it

Loads to mention. But basically couldn't avoid going back to the summer and Eddie issues. Literally his first sentence was about how he'd never join a club mid transfer window again. Plus how rotten he was personally as a footballer. Talked about holding hands with Eddie at the boxing in Saudi. Became fixated on needing to drink several pints a day in stack to help boost his own transfer fund, and hoping to get Eddie to join him in the drinking too.

 

Like, I'm honestly trying to be charitable in thinking he must just be much more of a doer than a talker

 

 

 

 

Depends on what actually happened that summer, but in many possible scenarios I would probably be thinking the same if I was him.

I mean, we all knew it was a difficult time to come in. Sounds like he's trying to joke about the timing more than anything else.

Haven't heard any of it yet. But.. I find it interesting that when he actually admits he found it difficult, which is the opposite of blaming everybody else, you complain that aswell for not sounding competent. Whichever route he takes you seem to look to interpret it in a bad way.

The Roast of Paul Mitchell - Live!

Super early days and irrational for sure but I can’t shake the feeling that this guy’s just all bluster. Talking about getting pissed and Brenting it up in front of fans isn’t helping either…

His CV would suggest otherwise
