    hahaha I set myself up for that one.

    I keep forgetting that the fact she's in foster care is only true because she's so young. She just turned 18 in December.

    Anyway, he's a cracking bloke, very energetic. His mum's got a picture on the fridge of him as a kid with Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink on their living room couch <laugh>

    I asked him if it's annoying saying Hesco Bastion, protecting the troops every two minutes, and he said it is, but they pay his wages so not really. Asked him to tell Eddie to stop being so ****ing miserable.

    TBH, a presenter should be neutral to do their job. If he does that, it's all we can expect (don't listen, so can't pass judgement myself).

    And if Leeds United didn't have their own media as a filter for Leeds United news, then being neutral would be a realistic possibility and the minimum we'd expect. This is what I generally see from the BBC, which goes far for making up for the odd lack of quality in their journalism at times. Unfortunately it's his job. I don't blame him for taking the jobsworth stance on this matter, it'll be part of their instructions to snub out any "bates out" stuff.
