Liam Gallagher knew what he was talking about all those years ago 🙌🏻

Sparklingbrook · 08/09/2018 22:56

I wish they had Mark Owen on instead. He seems genuinly lovely.

Would this be the Mark Owen who had ten affairs? Grin

Badtasteflump · 08/09/2018 22:58

Ha yes well Liam Gallagher is clearly a man who deserves to be listened to.... Robbie may be a bit of a nob but seems pretty harmless - unlike some.

@mpidersan what the mark owen who cheated on his wife for years?

MpiderSan · 08/09/2018 22:59

I don't know anything about Marks private life
He just seems more palatable than Robbie. I can't stand watching him
It's like your drunk uncle at Christmas kind of cringe

GabsAlot · 08/09/2018 22:59

dont get me wrong he was nice aswell but the mr perfect act isnt real

MpiderSan · 08/09/2018 23:00

I don't know anything about Robbie private life either

So I'm not basing it on anything other than who I'd rather have judging
Robbie grates me the wrong way
I saw Mark on super vet and he just seemed a lot nicer and not arrogant

MidnightAura · 08/09/2018 23:01

Him and his wife are the reason I can’t watch the X factor as it’s the Robbie show now. Didn’t think it could get worse after last year!

Badtasteflump · 08/09/2018 23:03

I don't watch X Factor btw.. it's absolute shit.

SPOFS · 08/09/2018 23:03

Robbie was in the right place at the right time and got very lucky.

He would not get famous if he was 16 years old today.

HeadacheAgainGrrrrrr · 08/09/2018 23:04

Ahhhh! What's all the Robbie bashing about!?

I love Robbie :) He's got that 'arrogant yet really vulnerable' thing going on! (Forgive me, I'm having a mid life crisis!!)

lowtide · 08/09/2018 23:10

I've met him. he's a cunt. and you have to call him Robert

Whydididothatfuckingthing · 08/09/2018 23:11

Love Robbie - saw him at knebworth, he was brilliant.

wowfudge · 08/09/2018 23:12

Arrogant+vulnerable=twat

BonnieF · 08/09/2018 23:12

Noel Gallagher got it right. He called Williams ‘the fat dancer from Take That’.

Said fat dancer got very, very lucky when his record company persuaded Guy Chambers to work with him. It wasn’t a coincidence that the fat dancer’s solo career imploded when he dumped Chambers because he thought Guy was taking too big a slice of the pie....

Badtasteflump · 08/09/2018 23:13

Ha ha you and me both headache. 20 years ago I loved him - and saw him live a good few times. He may not have been the best singer in the world but be always put on a good show and was very charismatic on stage. Now he looks a bit old and melted - but I probably do too, without the 'spaced off my tits' edge...

Mrsmadevans · 08/09/2018 23:19

Saw Robbie at Motorpoint Cardiff , he was wonderful, so funny and sang brilliantly . It was just after the Manchester bombing and his concert was one of the first, post the bombing, he was so lovely , he said 'we are not going to give in to fear ' Then he sang Angels and he had us in the palm of his hand. It was very emotional. We were very anxious about going but we went because we weren't going to let hate win.

Sarcelle · 08/09/2018 23:22

Norman Wisdom crossed with Freddie Star. An odd bloke.

sophisticatedsarcasm · 08/09/2018 23:22

I love him, it’s defo a breath of fresh air not listening to Louis say the same things a million times. I did read somewhere that Robbie has autism? Not sure if it’s true but feel like it would explain him 😊

dustarr73 · 08/09/2018 23:23

He has more charisma than Louis1D anyway,

I would rather go to see someone who wasnt a great singer,but held your presence.

Being a great singer[which there are many] and having the X Factor is the difference.

AtLastAPlan · 08/09/2018 23:39

lowtide can you expand on that? Genuinely interested, I always thought he'd be lovely.

aperolspritzplease · 08/09/2018 23:49

I bloody love him, arrogant cockwanker that he is, can't help it.

Mark was always my favourite though.

Mrsharrison · 08/09/2018 23:53

The older he gets the more he looks like Morrissey.

Teenageromance · 08/09/2018 23:56

Robbie has autism? Any links - never heard that before and would be surprised if so. He does have social anxiety.
