So time is a healer then?
Effectively, ITV are endorsing his behaviour. For anyone who doesn't know, I quote:
"You and I have been physically given two hands and two legs and half-decent brains,"
"Some people have not been born like that for a reason. The karma is working from another lifetime.
"I have nothing to hide about that. It is not only people with disabilities. What you sow, you have to reap."
So disabled people are disabled, because they were very naughty boys and girls in their previous lives. He has never apologised, and has only said he was sorry that people felt offended, and that was never his intention.
What the actual fuck?! Of all the knowledgable football personalities out there, they chose him? Wow. If only all workplaces were as understanding, by that reasoning, you could intimidate someone and it would be all totally fine after a little bit of time because 'it's only your religious beliefs...'
AIBU to think ITV could have chosen a better television role model than this?

To wonder why on earth Glenn Hoddle has got a job as a pundit for the World Cup when he has never apologised for his disablist comments?
