Disgrace

[Bluelegs]

Aker has been sacked from the radio show.
What a moron, his first time on air was his last.
Glad they had the sense to get rid of him.

Now the tool is falling all over himself to apologise.
Always the same with him, says something inflammatory and then its the same old line that he didnt mean it like that.

Hopefully his time in the media is now over, nothing worth hearing from this idiot.

For a man who claims to "tell it like it is" he does manage to be completely misunderstood a fair bit.

Posted this on the main board. Should probably put it in our backyard as well


I've got no problem with what Akermanis said. Stynes was a tough, aggressive competitor. Fair enough. He misunderstood why a state funeral was offered but he's not alone there. Maybe he should have researched a little further. Don't even question his timing as it's a topical issue. He's paid to comment on topical issues.

What I do have a problem with is the headline "Aker attacks Stynes". Firstly because he did no such thing and secondly because it colours the readers' view of his words before they get to read them. And I think the headline rather than the words spoken have provoked the over the top outcry against him.

The only reason for these types of comments were for media controversy and attention (which he partially achieved) but on this occasion it was so distasteful that its all backfired.

Jim was such an honorable person - how could you justify questioning the footy (and general) publics emotion in the days directly after his passing?

Akers comments were entirely self indulgent with horrible timing.

GtB I can only imagine that you dont have an understanding of the efforts and achievements in Jim Stynes life. The fact that there are others that have been as selfless as Jim is irrelevant whilst we are mourning and honoring his life.
