League is very weak
Robbie “bUt Hw Mani GAMez du U go 2” Lyle.
What’s the debate like?
Jordan always give me the impression he is a massive ****.

Wish Robbie just picked up Jim White and started beating Simon Jordan with him.
I don't really understand this 'toxic ' argument anyway. Results make atmospheres toxic and always have done. All around the world since football became what it is to people. Spain, Italy... You want toxic? Are their fan channels even partly to blame for their toxic atmospheres? It's just a bullshit excuse that they think holds water (one says it, it catches on, then it's a case of safety and ignorance in numbers), to hate.He had him on how much do you listen too though, everyone knows about the angry Arsenal fan rants as they get the most views but the channel does put out other videos and content.
Jim & Jordan wouldnt even give him that.
Was a very strange decision to have him on in my opinion, especially for that length of time too.
Exactly. But if he or anyone else has to admit that, it ruins it all, doesn't it?He had him on how much do you listen too though, everyone knows about the angry Arsenal fan rants as they get the most views but the channel does put out other videos and content.

No, couldn't give a toss how anyone tries to spin it--the total condemnation of the channel is about one of a few factors:
deep-rooted jealously that may even be undetected by person themselves, because the 'stars' get privileges, money and s degree of fame.
A dislike for people who speak like Troopz for one reason or many others (how the **** can this guy who speaks like this be earning enough money to fund a lavish lifestyle from this platform when I have jack **** to show for how much time I invest in the internet, yet I'm soooo much more intelligent, yer know!)
A percentage of people who don't have the opportunity to go to games (see the first reason)
And racism. Yes, I believe a certain portion of the haters just aren't comfortable with seeing Robbie and Troopz swanning around europe watching us play.
Add all these lot together, and that's where it all comes from imo. Becasue the 'toxicity' argument is clearly bullshit.
I definitely agree it adds to the hate, but also think it's part of the charm / why channel is so popular. Robbie's a chunky, averagely-spoken everyman, and people relate.I hate this new in word 'toxic', its thrown around and used for almost every bad thing now
I fully agree with your post, I think a lot of people take issue with Robbie due to his appearance, I slightly touched on it in one of my posts how it appeared that both Jim White & Simon Jordan underestimated Robbie, I have this suspicion that if Robbie was an attractive white man or even lighter skinned black man he would have far more acceptance.
I imagine it annoys a lot of people that he is the 'face' of our fan base right now.

Thats not really the impression I'm getting. As far as AFTV personalities go Robbie js the most liked by faaaaar (Along with Lee Judges and Graham) Troopz, Sonny, Claude and especially DT are waaaay more hated.
Not that there aren't some racists out there of course.
They're not just accusationsThose accusations of wife beating are dusgusting
