Well he's not wrong is he?

[silent majority]

Well he's not wrong is he?

I didn't say he was, but if you listen to the whole interview he's condescending with a chunk of arrogance.

[big fat yorkshire pudding]

Makes himself look silly to me. Classic premier league guff.

Exactly what we should embrace, show it to the players pre game. It'd piss me off.

[Filo]

Context, I’m sure he didn’t mean it in a nasty way if you listen to it, he’s Everton club ambassador, talking on Merseyside Radio, he’s saying what they want to hear, I would dispute him saying all his family are Evertonians though

[Jimmydee]

It was a good listen, it sparked some great personal memories for me.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Well he's not wrong is he?

I didn't say he was, but if you listen to the whole interview he's condescending with a chunk of arrogance.

I did listen to the whole interview and I didn't get that impression at all.

[Lifelong supporter]

Me neither BST.
Met him a few times and he's not like that at all.
He idolised Bremner, loved the club and did his best for them as a player and manager.
Apparently most of the 1985 team will be there tonight cheering Rovers on.

[Scooter]

Really poor in that interview. Little old Donny launched his career. I hope we piss on his chips

A player as good as he was was always going to outgrow a club of our size. He ended up playing for what was then one of the best sides in Europe. He's talking to their radio station. He's not saying anything dismissive of us. It's just how it is.

Still hope we f**k them over tonight of course...

[Chris Black come back]

Is from Rotherham after all…

[Lifelong supporter]

 So was Alick Jeffrey...

[Chris Black come back]

True but Alick didn’t go turncoat!

[Lifelong supporter]

Turncoat??!!
Can't believe some of the nonsense on here.
If one of the greatest players ever to play for the club, who absolutely loved the club and would do anything for it, is getting slagged off on here what hope is there for this website.

[mushRTID]

He says little old Donny affectionately to me, exactly as I would call us going up against a PL team.

I thought it was a good interview, didn't get a sense of arrogance at all.

[EasyforDennis]

It was very obvious where his loyalties lie and it certainly wasn't us.

[Silkscarf]

I thought it was fine and not condescending at all. We ARE little Donny. They, and many more clubs, ARE ‘big’ in a way we’ll never be even if we scraped into the Prem one year.

[bpoolrover]

Cant see a problem most of the lucky pint threads start with tlod v whoever

[Jimmydee]

He’s getting an income from Everton and he did say the right things for their local radio stations, I’ve heard a few ex rovers players commenting for the opposing team on iplayer saying the same things too.

[Jimmydee]

Sorry, Ifollow

[drfchound]

I don’t see what the problem is.
We call ourselves TLOD, we even have thread titles with that in the name.

[silent majority]

I don’t see what the problem is.
We call ourselves TLOD, we even have thread titles with that in the nam3.

The difference is that we are entitled to do it, it’s a coping mechanism.

But others doing it is arrogance.

[Herbert Anchovy]

In his book he does say that if Everton were to play Donny then he’d want Everton to win, 100%.

[karlos]

We could do with a few ambassadors for the club like snods, I have listened to a few of his ambassadorial role interviews for Everton and he often affectionately mentions Doncaster and does a really good job for Everton.

[GazLaz]

Ex players nearly always align themselves with the biggest club they have played for. It’s weird.

[Chris Black come back]

We did sack him I guess.

[Avsuptem]

Ex players nearly always align themselves with the biggest club they have played for. It’s weird.

It's true. I will be a Bell and Crown 2nd Xl man for the rest of my days.

[aidanstu]

I didn't say he was, but if you listen to the whole interview he's condescending with a chunk of arrogance.

If you’ve ever met him that’s Snods in a nutshell.

[Chris Black come back]

ARE YOU WATCHING IAN SNODIN? ARE YOU WATCHING? YOUR BOYS TOOK ONE HELL OF A BEATING IN THE FIRST HALF. STAN BOARDMAN, JIMMY TARBUCK, PAUL MCCARTNEY, DEREK HATTON. YOUR BOYS TOOK ONE HELL OF A BEATING.

[Ryaldinhio]

Are you all forgetting 25yrs ago this is one of the men who helped keep rovers alive????

He was calling in favours from old retired friends to sign for the club just so we could register as we only had 3 players on books 24hr before cut off??????

I won't listen to a bad word about the man. John Ryan saved the club, but Ian and Glynn did more than is recognised.
