Gabby Logan Out Of Order?

[thesshhh]

Interviewing Harry Maguire ahead of tomorrow’s World Cup semi final, Gabby LOGAN asked him why he literally has a large head. Do you think that’s acceptable?

[snags]

'Slab Head'

[carolegif]

I thought it rather rude too! He was very gracious in his reply.

[ummmm]

I don't think he has a large head. I just assumed it was an inside joke.

[Canary42]

Not rude, but stupid. Did she think he bought one off the shelf. Silly moo.

[Mamyalynne]

I doubt her question came out of the blue there has been much discussion.

I rather liked the fact all the family got a mention,

//So it seems we all owe Mr Maguire a debt of gratitude for blessing his son with a head the size of a breadbin.

And, without wishing to lower the tone unduly, Mrs Maguire probably also deserves a nod for giving birth to that monumental thing.//

Seeing as his nickname is 'slab-head' it looks like someone has already noticed.... that fact combined with his towering header during the game against Sweden have made sure that his head is a thing of note, at the minute.

Probably one of the other players put Gabby up to asking this question? Harry didn't look in the least perturbed by it and at least it shows the guys are relaxed ahead of tomorrow's match. Those of you who felt offended on his behalf need to have your bumps felt.

[Zacs-Master]

He should have said ‘I’ve no idea, Beakey’.

[Hopkirk]

So long as no one suggests that Gabby have her bumps felt.

[Canary42]

Nice one Zacs

She's not the first person to insult a sportsperson. Here's John Inverdale's notorious comments on Marion Bartoli:

[Old_Geezer]

It's the right sized head, he just failed to be 8' tall !

Seems he's ok with the observation. Been ribbed about it often enough.

[Voltage]

think her name sort of sums her up..."Gabby"
