Or you could be back tracking now you’ve read the room and literally no one agrees.

Must admit, on first reading it didn’t strike me as someone who was joking. Perhaps if you’d been more outlandish it might have hit.

I haven’t seen anyone say F**k on live tv since Slash said “the f**ker bit me” on Saturday kids show SMTV live 20 odd years ago.

I do hope it ruins Robbie Hunter Pauls tv career in a reg grundy - Sex Pistols way.

Didn't Richie Myler swear at a post match interview with Sky when he played for Salford a few years back?
Passion runs high after a close game, you can forgive an expletive after that.

It’s probably more that you just expect petty moaning about everything from Rugby League fans, so anything other than calling for his public hanging seems like a legitimate moan.

This is what happens when you interview this clown of a club owner first rather than the players, should have been nowhere near the mic. Brought the game into disrepute.

Hope RFl act fast and reprimand this clown.

Pathetic attempt at trolling.

As if he’s the first person to swear live on national television. It came from a place of passion, he shouldn’t have done it, he apologised, move on.

Nothing on BBC news this morning about it… thought it would have been one of the headlines based on the above.

Back to bed for you. Pathetic.

Well it wasn’t an ”attempt at trolling” but if it was, it hooked snd triggered you pretty well so must have been a good attempt after all.

How anyone could read my post without thinking “ this is a joke right’ i don’t know. Some people need to lighten up,

Maybe this is why nobody hardly posts on VT anymore.

In that case then, it’s a very weird post and does not read as a joke at all.

Strange bloke.
