The Steve McClaren Dutch Interview Video
« on: August 16, 2008, 01:01:54 PM »
This was on the television yesterday, but I don't know if you've all seen it.

Further proof, if any were required, of what an absolute idiot Steve McClaren is.

Obviously, when foreign players give interviews for English TV, they usually speak either in (sometimes hesitant) English with their own accent, or they speak in their own language and get a translator.

So, if Steve McClaren were giving an interview for Dutch TV, surely he should speak either in broken Dutch, OR just speak normally in English and get a translator.

Instead, he puts on a poor Dutch accent, and speaks in broken English despite the fact that it is his first language.

What a plonker. Thoughts please?

Cringe, cringe, cringe, cringe after cringe.   <-

The televisual equivalent of sucking lemons.
I apologise, in advance.

He IS a footballer, right? So why the surprise?
