Will have a listen this afternoon when i'm painting my cast iron staircase spindles.
Before the Les Interview Get's going, i'm hoping for a 9 minute anecdote from the panel about a fictional former KGB Assassain and Supernumerary nipple'd golden gun for hire and his brusque off screen manner to supporting cast members and stage crew Subordinates . [Post edited 5 Dec 2018 10:12]

Just listening to the start of it. So far, we've had six minutes of Finney interviewing himself. [Post edited 5 Dec 2018 11:04]

Not had a chance to listen yet, do they ask him about his current role? Podcast always been quite critical asking what he does so an ideal chance to find out |  | | |

Sadly No James Bond Anecdote this week but Finney was in the role of Eamonn Andrews with his big red book , with Les as the special guest. A Very interesting and enjoyable listen when one is getting handy with the satinwood .5" bristle brush about ones home. [Post edited 5 Dec 2018 11:43]

Very enjoyable. Liked the panellists and Ferdinand was great guest.
The conversation was mostly about his playing days but veered into interesting areas and observations.
Well done to all. | |

5" bristle brush to paint stair spindles.? I like your style Droids. No messing about.. 2 spindles at a time.  |
.5" for the spindles Jody. But judging by the state of 'em before i sanded them, the geezer before me painted them with Triggers Broom. | |

It was an enjoyable pod but did feel like a missed opportunity.
The number of times Finney and the others on the pod question Ferdinands role and decisions made this would have been a good time to ask him about the thinking behind why he made those decisions. | | | |

It was a great pod.
Amongst other things it was interesting to hear Les talk about racism, the documentary he did recently with Ian Wright and his ambivalence around JT.
But also great to hear about his playing days and then his return to the club. |  |

Finney's a great guy I'm sure, but a good interviewer says very little themselves and gets the interviewee to speak. I'd have liked more input from Flo who, when she did ask something was concise and on point. | | | |

True.
Finney mentioned from the off that the interview would concentrate mostly on the playing days and it sounded as if it was an editorial decision rather than being a wish of Ferdinand's, who was very open all through the pod. If it was an editorial decision, I can't think why. | |

Lol.
I think a guest of such stature, he's not there to hear about our lives really, let's hear what Les has to say.
Ps I wouldn't agree at all Les single handedly kept us up for several seasons. Ok, we went down when he was sold, but we had an absolutely superb team playing with Les and that's probably doing them a massive disservice.
Pps I'm also scarred by the Premiership. Sends shivers down my spine.
Ppps Where i grew up, i'd say i never knew a single racist person, not one. Never heard a single comment other than what would have been meant as banter. Don't know what the hell you guys were on about there. Imo, almost nobody in their right mind in Britain gives a toss about anybodies' skin colour, or not beyond what is basic human nature. Only the proper morons, who just hate in general. That isn't racism, that's an arsehole. I just don't accept it. Definitely not where i come from, none of what you said represented my experiences. Like listening to the daily mail podcast. What are you talking so much politics for in a football show? I'm really not sure you are qualified and i'd take serious issue with some of what i heard there. This is part of the problem, not the solution.
I used to live with my black ex girlfriend for about three years. Having grown up in Cornwall, i honestly never once even thought about the fact that might have been somebody who didn't approve, never crossed my mind. Never heard a comment, never caught a glance. To me, maybe i'm just being naive, but it's as if i'm listening to you talk about aliens. Don't know what you're on about. If there are less asians at the football, i'd suggest there are less asians who want to go/play football. I have a half caste child in fact. Not sure i'd even thought about it until now. So what? Who cares? Does even one person on this forum give a sh!t about anybodies' skin colour? I doubt it. To me, it's just media selling their bullsh!t.
Of course everybodies' welcome at Loftus Road.
The only racism i hear is about ginger haired people, who for some strange reason it is still somehow ok to abuse. [Post edited 6 Dec 2018 5:39]

I agree about the comment that Ferdinand kept us in the Premier League for years sing-handedly. I don't think it was meant literally, to be fair. Either way, in his six seasons in the first team we finished 11th, 12th, 11th, 5th, 9th and finally 8th, so it doesn't really stack.
As for the racism, I thought it was an excellent and reasoned discussion. I'm glad you didn't witness any. Everybody's experience is different. I experienced lots, and was subjected to lots. That's how it goes. | |

Actually it was a good opportunity missed.
Les was being fairly honest and he was not really asked anything that would have gained us a greater insight to his role within the club along with what has gone on since he has been here.
The interviewees were not knowledgeable enough to push him on these matters which is a shame. |  | | |

I kept thinking of questions I would have asked had I been there, like if les has ever spoken to John terry since the incident, and if not what would he say to him.
Sadly, finney is from the Richard Madeley school of interviewing in that he would far rather tell his own anecdotes than actually listen to any from the other person.
I imagine if he’d ever met Neil Armstrong he would spend the whole time regaling him with tales of how he used to watch button moon as a child. |  |

I don't think anyone can really have a dig at Finney because let's not forget he's volunteering his time to do this are all the others.
Fair enough David Fraser has a more structured approach but none of us are putting in the legwork week in week out. | |

I thought Finney was excellent best I've heard from him, when he did do a Ronnie Corbett ramble it was almost to the point |  |

Finney gets into some right old ding dongs on Twitter, I don’t know why he doesn’t just ignore | | | |

Some good stories from Les. Could have done with more insight into his current role, not just the mess we were in when he came back. |  |
