TrickyTrev Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 It’s a shame there weren’t as many fans sticking up for Garry Monk when some on here took the mick out of his apparent inability to pronounce ‘TH’ in his sentences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I am now unsure if it's still ok to say Darren Moore is still not the best manager I think he could be, given the players and staff he has had at his availability What are we saying? Luke Ayling is now a saint who never did anything wrong in his career, and Darren Moore is a great manager? Not really that deep mate. Just saying it’s not okay to take the mick out of (potential) speech impediments… Go have a lie down maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Let’s be right here Moore was mocked viscously on here for how he speaks It took the owner of the site to make a plea for it to stop, and very proactive moderation to squash it. Sadly I believe the main reason it stopped is because we started winning, and it will no doubt resurface when we start losing 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devonstrix Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 I don’t think Darren Moore has a speech impediment anyway. He just uses the expression erm which is probably just a habitual thing. Just like a lot of people these days say ‘like’ every other sentence, copying American-speak. Some people repeatedly say ‘you know’ etc. I would class lisps, stammers and the like as speech impediments. For me it was and is perfectly reasonable to question any managers communication skills if they appear to be lacking. Darren Moore’s interviews were boring and repetitive and some fans understandably questioned how inspiring his team talks must be, if his press interviews were anything to go by. As much as anything, his interview style probably reflected his relative lack of experience at dealing with those pressure situations and he came across a bit ‘rabbit in headlights’. I imagine he’s had some coaching which has seen his style become more relaxed. The improved results have probably helped too! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a totally different skill.

Why is the OP saying that to us. That has all stopped on here. TBH. I think the erm thing is funny. I don't think anyone ever meant anything nasty by it? did they? I like Darren Moore, seems a decent bloke doing a decent job but the Constant Erm's are funny when your watching his interviews. if he gets ribbed about i'm almost certain its all light hearted. We've all had the mickey taken out of us for something haven't we? my ears as massive and by god, people don't half let me know Edited April 1, 2022 by PTLiam spelling error. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone has a speech impediment then clearly a joke about that to me would be in poor taste and i wouldnt like it. But I wouldnt want it banned. Biggus Dickus anyone? We dont or shouldn't be censoring things which aren't against the law as we dont personally like them. That leaves far too much power in the hands of the unelected arbitors of what is or isnt right. It used to be said by left and right that i profoundly disagree with your views but would fight to the death to defend your right to say them. Usually the general public has been progressive in deciding what is right and wrong. We dont need censorship - even if its well intended. It will lead to a less tolerant world.
