Just seen the video of Dom Hyams MOTM interview. Cant quite make out exactly what Benno says but walks through the camera in front of Hyam and the guy interviewing and says "you're all fucking bullshit you are" or words to that effect!
Both Dom and the interviewer clearly hear what he says and both look confused and shocked.
Cant be certain what he said or why he said it, but as a CCFC 'legend' and ccfcfpa member, he should be doing better than this. The blokes never sober when I meet him.
If he does have a problem with someone or something then surely it has to be dealt with behind the scenes, not in full view during a MOTM presentation!

Strikes me as having quite the ego. Living off something that happened over 32 years ago.

Doesn't look good really... although, could that have been cut out before publishing?

Hmm, thought as much. I’d shake his hand but he’s just the same as you and me. I’d only grovel at the feet of Dion Dublin!

oh dear! :emoji_face_palm: Wonder if he’ll be getting invited back? :emoji_joy:
Oggy, don’t be booking anything for the foreseeable as with Geoff having gone missing, and Benno not doing himself any favours here, I think you’re going to have to be Clive’s +1 a lot more than you already have been :emoji_laughing:

Follow up tweet from the originator (who is probably now backtracking - if so I’m not sure why he’d keep the post up)


surely there’s a time and place for ‘banter’

"fucking bullshit you are I tell you", before I saw the video I thought it was tongue in cheek, the snide way he says it suggests it's what people have already said. Resentment towards the young lads. Like Finchy vs Ricky in the office.

Embarrassing. If you can’t act appropriately at his age leave him at home and stop inviting him up.

I thought it was aimed at Brian rather than Dom, they’ve used him for these presentations this year, wonder if Benno is jealous. Frank saying banter requires the same words that Benno used

I’m afraid that’s Benno all over. Was exactly the same when he was a player, could walk the walk but unfortunately couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Still, doesn’t mean we have to invite him to our BBQ in the summer.

this is embarrassing behaviour in a family area.
Unfortunately I can’t say it’s surprising that Benno was involved.

Frank is frankly embarrassing with him trying to justify why swearing in an area with children is acceptable, even if it’s aimed at Roberts it’s not right and look at his face as well, does it look like they were having banter together...... keep digging Frank, you’re just trying to keep in favour of the club as you should have looked at the video before posting it.

I'm not sure why hes digging, it doesn't make the club look bad it makes Bennett look bad.

I’ve seen Benno and Kirk Stevens out loads and they’ve always been sound to me. Accidentally ended up at Benno’s 60th birthday party in the crows nest!

Regis was “dating” a girl that was the daughter of a then well known head doorman in the town, who took offence to this. Regis was severely threatened and warned off.
Subsequently the tables were turned when Bennett and a van full of his Manchester mates paid the doorman and his merry men a visit one night. And the rest is history.
All allegedly of course!!!

Well good luck to him, as for living off something 32 years ago, why shouldn't he? Not many footballers have got a winners medal or scored in a cup final.

It's all well and good but it doesn't really work when he's playing against people who have been out all night on the beer and couldn't give a shit on a dog shit ridden pitch in Nuneaton.

No ones writing him off? We’re just saying being a dick isn’t excusable just because he has an FA Cup winners medal. Do you think that’s normal behaviour?

Played against him a few times, was a big hero of mine until I came up against him, he was arrogant not only with us, the opposition, but also with his own team mates, one of which actually threatened to bang him out during the game! I managed to nut meg him during one of the games which would have been fairly easy as his legs had been broken that many times there was a huge gap permanently!!

Dave runs the walking football for SBitC on a Monday and Thursday at St Finbarrs Club. I will be there today. I like him and he doesn’t come across as arrogant. He has a laugh with all us old guys as he is one of us now himself.

Whatever was said and whoever that was aimed at, it's a shitty way of going about your business. Say whatever you've got to say to that persons face if you've got something to say at all.
