[Misc] People you used to dislike but have warmed to

[Taybha]

Roy Hodgson,pretty much says it as it is,not afraid to call out bad performances from his team and his own mistakes,couldn't stand the bloke during his England spell,seemed to be sanitised by the suits upstairs ,as do most if not all England managers.

Ronaldo. used to think he's a preening knob, now cant look last the sheer talent and leadership.

have to comment on the opener, a surprise as i gathered he's becoming increasinly ridiculed from his own side.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Peter Capaldi (as Dr Who). Very disappointed first time I watched the series, but very pleased when I watched it a second time around. Perhaps my favourite doctor (although Tom Baker, Ecclestone and Smith were all excellent). Rather the opposite of Tennant who I loved first time around but, ooh no, gurning jock ****, second time around. While on the subject, I'll be very glad to see the back of the current gurning Playaway presenter who was disappointing first time around and deeply irritating the second, albeit I like her wingmen/women.

Agree about Ronnie.

(No idea who Own Jones might be. Snooker player? Leader of the Welsh Nats? Can't be arsed to look him up).

Another vote for Portillo. He genuinely seems to like people and be interested in their welfare now.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Major's government was repeatedly mired in sleeze and scandals - even more so than the Tory shambles that exists now - it was the main reason Blair was able to win the election in 1997

A big claim that

In the context of Boris Johnson, I’m finding myself warming to a lot of the previous incumbents …..with a few notable and obvious exceptions!

Ed Milliband.

Harry Wilson's Tackle

These guys I worked with on a show, let's call them Mick and Ron. Children's entertainers, who came across as arrogant pricks, late for rehearsals, going through the motions. They put money for the whole night of the after-party behind the bar, gave a lovely speech and one of them talked about personal issues and thanked everyone for their support etc.

Michael Bublé

 

[Jam The Man]

Another vote for Mike Dean here.

I’m blocked by OJ for pointing out he was wrong on something he’d tweeted about - including backing up what I said with a fact-check

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Colin Murray.

Absolute reverse fixture for me, used to love him when he first appeared on late night TV, his passion and knowledge across many sports, big baseball fan etc, now I have to switch off if he comes on, feeling he’s morphed into just another BBC middle ground dullard.

To paraphrase The Libertines: “Can’t stand him now, I can’t stand him now”.

My postman.

My GOD, I want to dislike him. The fake teeth. The tan. Coming from a talent show where he was a sobbing mess...

But every time I hear him on the radio or see him on TV i think.......he seems like a nice guy. Good luck to him.

He's very inoffensive. I think perfect for TV ads. Bet he makes a bucket through Cinch.
