Knapper has been interviewed by Connor from the PinkUn I believe there is also an interview with TNC set to be released tonight as well
Given all the vitriol towards him, and the demands from people to hear from Knapper, I am surprised and the apparent lack of interest in these interviews? For what it's worth I think he spoke well, addressed all of the issues that have been aimed at him and accepted the anger toward him is justified when looking at the position the team are in. He took ownership of everything and tried to explain the reasoning behind certain decisions, as far as he could. I don't know if fans could expect him to come out and said anything more than he has done across the 3 pieces, it's clear to me that he isn't particularly comfortable doing press work. He praised the fans rather than calling half of them a bunch of divorcees as well.
In my opinion, the Winter one is easily the best. Very focused and detailed and pointed and didn't allow Knapper to hide behind Mea Culpas and waffle and empty generalities. In the end I felt this worked well for Knapper, too, and he looked far more comfortable and capable in his responses. Be interested to know if other people agree with me because obviously this is very subjective.
Agreed, I also thought it was good from Knapper and the club that they got such a well respected journalist in to interview him rather than someone from the club. I thought going to TNC was also a big step considering both Reeves having been calling for Knapper to be sacked for a couple of months now, and as more of a conversational style neither party was afraid to disagree with one another
