Out of interest, what don't you like about him as a person? I've always thought he came across as quite a genuine bloke and although clearly pro Arsenal, has always seemed quite fair even regarding Spurs.

Oh just his irritating smile and general twatishness. You know, really important things. :D He's probably really nice but he's just got a face I want to punch. Like Davina Macall.

I hate her. My wife has just got to the point that she changes the channel if Davina Macall pops up to stop herself from having to hear me rant.

To be fair Wright and Seaman were Okish gooners and Wright's been very critical of the gooners over the years. He's gone a bit tittish this year as they improved (well, earlier in the season anyway) and bought Avatar eyes but overall I think he's OK. He also seemed to love Defoe.

Can't stand Davina McCall...She'd have loved being in the middle of that Arsenal back four with all those wankers.

Fair enough. I feel that way about Charile Nicholas. Can't stand the ****.

Just stumbled across this video clip of Ian Wright and its really touching. Not sure if this formed part of the documentary mentioned in this thread.



Love how respectful he is, the way he instantly takes off his hat when he sees his old teacher. I have always liked the fact he still refers to Hoddle as 'Gaffer' too.

Ian Wright has always struck me as a decent bloke, just keep him off the football chat. He loves Arsenal but he is has a bit about him and can take it as well as give it. The likes of Charlie Nicholas and co are just bitter ( not sure why! ) old pricks who have nothing about them at all. I'd love to finish above them just to see his reaction

I do like Ian Wright, I think he's quite genuine. As much as he's clearly not a Spurs fan, he does actually give us a bit of respect at times. Can't ask more than that from a rival.

My wife said he was originally a Millwall fan, not sure how true that is though.
