Heard a lot of negative feedback about Prutts and, not being one to take other people's opinions as gospel, listened to what he had to say. He strikes me as a very warm, genuine, honest man who made a humble and quite sober account of his career. Appreciates the foundations that Forest gave him, recognises that he made mistakes, but has friends right across the league from those days and his current role as a presenter. His recent predictions have been no less biased. It's rare o see him predicting a Forest loss of late so the rumours of bias are totally unfounded.
Glad you enjoyed Phil… wish others took the time to watch and learn, rather than just throw stones. Anyway….! Don’t forget to subscribe for free to see more interviews from the past and future… cheers!
I remember seeing Prutts in a hotel in Harrogate with my dad about 10 years ago and we asked him for an autograph but we ended up chatting for about 40 minutes about his time at forest, he absolutely loves the club, especially Paul Hart. Was one of the nicest footballers I've met, was really interesting and genuine. No 'Billy big time', he really wanted to see how our holiday was etc. He did blame us when his wife rang him asking where he was though!!
Another top interview Chippers, lots of really interesting insights!
Great story Liam, enjoyed that! Don’t forget to subscribe for free to see more interviews from the past and future… cheers!
Intelligent, insightful and articulate. Can't do any harm having someone who knows Forest so well in such a prominent position.
Class, as always. Watch him on a "rival" podcast often and love Prutts. Just a lovely bloke and could hear him talk all day. Cheers Chippers and Prutts.
There are other podcasts?! 😉
Absolutely amazing interview always had alot time for Prutts. I would just like to imagine him jumping up in the studio when Forest score if we was on sky. Was gutted when he went to Southampton. I do love the lad though as all of them from Paul Hart era Daws, Reidy, JJ, Marlon and a few others nice to see them all doin well. Once a Red always a Red 🔴 🌳⭐⭐🇦🇹🇵🇪
Hi, I'm a Leeds fan congratulations (don't hate me on BC) on your promotion genuinely back where you deserve! I love your channel your era was my era and I have been fascinated to hear such eloquent guests open an insightful window during that time. Good luck next season and for the future.
Thank you, that’s very kind… glad you’re enjoying the channel!
A very good conversation, interesting and informative as always
Cheers Nic, glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant. I've always had high regard for Prutts bloody lovely bloke. Cracking upload Chippers 👌
Thank you! Don’t forget to subscribe for free to see more interviews from the past and future… cheers!
Another cracking interview. Loved Pruts as a player always gave his all in one way or another
Cheers Leigh, Don’t forget to subscribe for free to see more interviews from the past and future… cheers!
There's some of these you go into not sure what to expect, and some you're massively looking forward to. It did not let us down! Could listen to Prutts for hours, such an intelligent, articulate, personable guy. The "he never predicts Forest to win" thing is weird, not least because since we were relegated from the Prem only 3 managers (Billy both times, the great MoN, and Coops) have had a win % above 40%! When you're going through long spells not winning more than 70% of your games what was he supposed to say? Prutts should be proud of his 25 U21 caps as well. Yes I'm sure he'd trade them for one at senior level, but you think how many players would have loved to have pulled on the three lions, at any level, even once, then that haul of times he represented his country (as a Forest player no less) is a fine achievement.
Glad you liked it John….
Well I thought I’d watch this with a bit of apprehension but I ended up enjoying it. The only thing I can criticise is that you ask prutty a question and he either goes round the houses or he diversifies lol. Great interview as always chippers keep them coming 👍
Fascinating. He has an interesting take on his career and his life. Loved it. A great interviewee.
Cheers Aidan, glad you liked it…!
Absolutely brilliant interview great hearing the stories. The only other person I knew who could match him for his sharp wit and personality was Fraser Nicholson who was Press Officer at Forest.
I remember they always got on very well?!
I’m sure you were up there in the wit and personality stakes in your time at the club, Geoff.
I love Prutts , very passionate guy
Glad you enjoyed it CT!
Prutts is as entertaining as ever!
Cheers Andrew, glad you enjoyed!
I can't wait Robin
Not long to go!
There was definitely something in the water wasn’t there. Prutts, Michael Dawson, Marlon Harewood, Jermaine Jenas and even Andy Reid with successful roles in the media.
Glad you enjoyed it Philip… and yes, very rounded human beings who all add something in the media…
defo
Reminds me of a character from league of gentlemen. Olly Plimpsols from legs akimbo maybe
Can we have Gary Megson to talk to
That bloody red card v Yeovil…….. still fuming now
Not a great night, that one… lets hope for better tonight!! Don’t forget to subscribe to the channel for free, to see more videos from the past and future come up on your UA-cam feed. Cheers!!
More often than not his "Predictions" are mostly Forest to lose .
And more often than not he’s been right!! Until this season…
Sheesh He elaborates a lot... does he ever just get to the point lol
lol
Not a criticism of the guy in general but in this interview he never seems to come to the end of a sentence and starts two or three different threads and one never knows what he’s actually talking about. Disappointing. I had been looking forward to it.
Makes for a good interview in my opinion. I knew what he was talking about throughout.
