Aibu to think Adam should have been removed from the show due to his aggresive outburst last night. He literally punched a wall!
Yes he was frustrated but h is reaction was unacceptable on national TV.

No, I don't agree.

I disagree too

It’s a reality TV show, made for entertainment, that was recorded months ago. Plus it’s post watershed. I don’t see the issue

No, I don't agree.

Why? So many men get called out for punching walls on here. Why the double standards?

So because he is a 'celebrity' it's ok? Ok then!

It was probably in his script. Do you object to violence in TV dramas too?

You have failed to set the context so you are absolutely being unreasonably. The poor bloke has been bullied and treated disgracefully throughout the show. Both David Haye and Jimmy Bullard are rightly getting highlighted across the media for being truly awful human beings.

I haven't seen a single bit of support for your way of thinking. If you're Bullard's/Hayes' agent and trying to distract from them you're on a hiding to nothing. I can't imagine why anyone else would attempt to defend them.

Alwaysthesameoldstory · 22/04/2026 13:01

I don't even know who Adam is.
Nothing new there though because I usually haven't heard of these " celebrities ".

I must say I would rather watch paint dry than reality TV shows and I'm impressed OP you are so invested in this programme you can actually get worked up about it.

Wall punching is performative anger at its finest. "Grrrr, look how angry I am. Are you scared?". He's a fucking loser.

Exactly. @ThatLemonBear no context is acceptable or excusable to punch a wall.
If he does that on live TV what the hell does he do behind closed doors when he looses his temper!

I thought the passive aggressive " calm down, you're making yourself look ridiculous" type comments from that Bullard bloke were quite goady.

Plus he was being a selfish twat, he had every opportunity to call time and fuck off out of there without bringing consequences on another teammate.

There’s a narrative of him being a victim on this series. However, social media reports that he and his brothers are really nasty in person and have had plenty of scuffles involving others. His behaviour was out of order last night but itv will let it go because he has a fan base and they’re hoping for a reality tv show for the family as a whole.

Exactly! Total double stamdards.

If an OP posts on here that a man punched a wall, whatever the context, he would be pulled to pieces!
