I felt Rob was rude with his persistence.

 

Do journalists usually talk / ask for close on 20 minutes.


He wasn't rude he was doing his job

He asked questions, didn't get a real answer so rephrased to try and get an answer


He was asking the questions fans had been screaming out over the days before the press conference


Jos handled it.

It's a press conference 

Journo's press for questions, managers answer them. It's how it works

When i hear his voice at the SWFC press conferences it makes me want to clit my wrists as the toaster lead wot reach into the bathroom

 

Haha...you accidently got a rude word past the swear filter.

 

Also, I quite like the idea of clitting my wrists.

 

Maybe have a go at pussying my knees while I'm at it.

As simple as that is it? 

A bit North Korea if you ask me... lol

 


No it isn't

 

I'm saying that their opinion is wrong


The media are doing their job

The only reason Owls fans can't hack that currently is due to our own doing  (performances, league position, first team missing, no promotion season, cakeball etc)

 

The media aren't doing anything wrong at all

The Dom Howson article posted in this thread is just content that's poorly constructed but the point he's making about stayaway fans is one that our own fans have been making all season.

Seriously ask similar persistent questions for almost 20 minutes?

 

I don't usually watch them.

They can think that but they're wrong

 

As HirstyBoyWonder more eloquenty explained


Wednesday fans have turned into crybabies this season about the media and it's everything we used to take the mick out of other clubs fans for

 

Thought this site was for debating anything related to Wednesday.

That's just stating "I'm right and anyone doesn't agree with me they're wrong" isn't it ?

Not at all mate and it's nothing to do with 'this site'

I'm saying my opinion is that those people who think that way are incorrect

Maybe I listened to it wrong. I felt the tone was - 'Well I'm Rob Staton and I think you should have gone to Millwall with these tactics and I want you to give me an explanation as to why you didn't and if I dont like your answer and i'm going to continue to get narky with you'

 

Utd have just come off a run of 2 wins in 14 and not once was Wilder questioned. Carlos was asked if he would consider resigning after a run of 1 win in 7. 

 

I dont see that as fair personally bit thats just me

 

The way he was asking is a matter of personal opinion I suppose, Jos seemed a little irritated but continued to answer so don't think he was overly offended. It meant getting answers to some of the questions I as a fan would have raised, even if I didn't agree with some of the answers it at least provided an explanation. 

 

I can't comment on what had been asked of Wilder during their recent poor run as I haven't got any interest in what he has to say unless it concerns us.

If needed yes


He didn't ask the same questions for 20 minutes btw - watch it again

SIMILAR critical questions for almost 20 minutes.

 

Round and round making similar criticism.

 

I couldn't bear to watch it again.

 

Was there only 2 journalists there?

 

Rob took about 18 (?) minutes. 

I don't think I would look forward to meeting him if I was Jos, but then again what does it matter, he's going in May isn't he, or is he?

Re Wilder, I'm exactly the same. However I find myself listening to the interviews as they make me despise him even more. Its a really strange guilty pleasure thing I've got going on...

Rob doesn't do that in every press conference but he was right to press for an answer on the question he was asking

That's why it's important to not just jump in shouting about 'this site' etc etc

 

lol

 

 

Looks like you interpreted me wrong.

My reply was meant to be about the comment I highlighted not about the site.

lol

Statement of fact (A) - the local sports journalists are just doing their jobs.

 

Statement of opinion (B) - the local sports journalists are not very good at their jobs.

 

The logic bit - A is necessary to deduce B. B does not necessarily follow A, but the evidence (see link in OP) suggests it to be true.
