Re: Avram Grant press conference

Q: A deserved win Avram?
Grant: 'Yes.'

Q: What particularly pleased you about the performance?
Grant: 'I'm pleased.'

Q: What in particular pleased you?
Grant: (after an eight second delay): 'I don't know.'

Q: Is it a relief to win here?
Grant: 'Yes.'

Q: You seem lost for words by the performance. Are you more satisfied with the performance or the victory?
Grant: 'Both.'

Q: You seem distracted. Do you have a problem?
Grant: 'No problem.'

Q: Is there an issue?
Grant: 'No. I'm ok. I have nothing to say.'

Q: Do you have a message for the Chelsea fans?
Grant : 'You represent the Chelsea fans?'

Q: They must believe you are still in the title race, do you have a message for them?
Grant: 'No message.'

Q: Does this result mean you are back in it now?
Grant: 'I don't know.'

Q: How many steps have you climbed to undertake this press conference?
Grant: 'I don't know.'

Q: You seem less voluble than usual. Is it because of Sky TV moving the game to a Thursday?
Grant: 'Maybe it's because of you. I don't know. I am ok.'

Q: You are saying that you don't know if you are still in the title race?
Grant: 'No.'

Q: Is it easier to say nothing Avram?
Grant: 'I don't know what to answer. It is a good question. I don't know what to answer.'

Q: Is this because of Sky?
Grant: 'No. Sky is ok. I enjoy watching them.'

Q: Is it a protest against newspapers?
Grant: 'No. Why?'

Q: Why else would you come in and refuse to answer our questions?
Grant: 'I answer every question.'

Q: You are two points behind Manchester United and you don't know if you are still in the title race?
Grant: 'No.'

Q: Have you told the players that you don't know if you are back in the title race?
Grant: 'What I tell the players is something else. You want me to tell you what I say to the players?'

Q: We just want you to answer the question, really. Are you in the title race?
Grant: 'I don't know.'

Q: Would you not like to gain some positive publicity for the result rather than this bizarre silence?
Grant: 'I'm sorry. You can write whatever you want and I can answer what I want.'

Q: Do you feel under pressure to deliver a trophy. Is that the reason for the monosyllabic answers?
Grant: 'No.'

Q: Are you upset? Do you feel you have been misrepresented? Grant: 'Maybe I have said because it is a bad season.'

Q: Did Michael Essien faint?
Grant: 'He had some problems, but he is ok.'

Q: Michael Ballack?
Grant: 'Injured.'

Q: What's his problem?
Grant: 'Ask the doctor.'

Q: He's not here Avram.
Grant: 'Well call him then.'

Q: Have you ever played the yes/no game Avram?

Chelsea press officer: 'This is going nowhere. Let's end it.'

Fair play to him. He's been treated even more unfairly than Rafa.

I have to admit I kinda like Avram for that. Brilliantly entertaining. The press should be treated with utter contempt, they print nothing but shit.

Re: Avram Grant press conference

The man has gone very much upwards in my estimations of him thanks to this Sky "The owners of all things football" fuck them lets hope he keeps it up

I would love them to do it and then see the fucking interview they get of Fergie after the game ?

Re: Avram Grant press conference

I think its about time managers give the press the run around, after all they make stuff up to justify their opinions, let them feed on sweet f.a.
Raffas P.C. today was sweet as well. The only obligation the managers have to these sewer rats is to turn up and answer the question that is applicable to the p.c....fuck em.
Grant is the best thing the chavs have going for them, not that they will realize it until its too late.

Re: Avram Grant press conference

Likewise. Shame he didn't finish off by saying "So try to twist that, you quisling fucks" but other than that, impressive.

This in particular:

Thing was he didnt speak to Sky as already stated that day cos he was pissed off with them moving the game.
Funny they didnt mention that on the SSN this morning when reporting this news this morning.
