How A Joke Collapsed A Football Podcast (The Kick Off vs The Club)

Buvey saying that is mental, I’m a City fan and I absolutely can’t stand him/his content or his opinions of football. He’s one of the worst creators in that space and he’s only known because of The Kick Off

​@@anandchaudhary1675 I started watching Wizzy because of the Kick off, but stayed a subscriber to him because of his personality and I felt a huge piece of the puzzle left with him.

Tbh, the best kick off format was at the very beginning, when it was Geordie, Laurence, Statman Dave, and a rotating guest for every episode, that were normally really good (Spencer, The lad from Game of Thrones, Calfreezy, Willne, Stephen, Behzinga, etc). It was hilarious, and actually had good football knowledge, particularly from Dave. And they didn’t have that short clip/clickbaity mentality, so it was pretty down to earth

[@yourfriendlycynic654]

The way the club spoke about The Kickoff was so strange to me, not even because they said it was bad, I'm actually fine with them doing that to an extent. But the way they spoke about it, if you'd never watched The Kick-off before, you'd genuinely think they'd only been guests on the show a couple of times, so when they're saying "It's not as good as it used to be" trying to come across as objective, but then not saying that THEY were the hosts, so the basic implication being that they made the show better, which again, fine, if they want to hold that opinion, got ahead, but actually say that. Adam seemed the most reasonable there, and seemed to actually acknowledge that he was a big part of it

Adam seems ok, I think he was genuinely upset by what Brian had done and you could sort of see he didn't want to talk about the kick off. The other two have the entertainment factor of a doormat and there opinions were shocking.

It’s so strange for me to see the fall out I remember when Lawrence was on football daily and true Geordie had his own channel just talking about premier league games and I remember watching them meet each other when they did commentary on a charity football game and got along really well. Sad to hear they no longer have contact with each other

[@michaelstein7510]

Yeah, I randomly found True Geordie back around 2013 from his old Newcastle rants and KICKTV videos with Jimmy Conrad way back then. Those were hilarious. It’s a shame all those old videos are private now. The 2016 Iceland rant was an all-timer.😂

Geodie cancellation was crazy especially how KSI said an equally offensive joke after and had all his friends laughing and all he had to do was say sorry and everyone carried on like normal. on the comedian point i do think if stephen tries or W2S or someone like Jimmy Carr said it no one would have blinked

[@Bakugan945]

Difference in my opinion is the persona put across and how accountable they are, for example everyone knows with Stephen tries 99% of what he says is a joke that has no real meaning and with jimmy carr he’s purely telling jokes and pushing the boundaries. Brian multiple times went on record calling people out for being wrong (which was part of his charm initially) with the likes of Logan Paul etc. if he’s going to have this power to call people out when it comes to social media it also comes with the responsibility of being perfect from a pr side yourself, so yeah he can say Logan Paul you are awful for filming that Forrest, but he can’t then make a racially motivated joke and have that be looked at as a joke and overlooked. Just my opinion though if you get what I’m saying

Wouldn't know who any of them were if it wasn't for Brian.. friendship means different things to different people.. some people would choose to stick by a longstanding friend over financial gain and public image, and others will turn there back in a second.. imo that drama Brian went through was a blessing and allowed him to see who was and wasn't really riding with him!

[@r0sco_1]

Reading the comments it looks like almost all prefer the KO to the Club. Not a fan of the club, they're all in an echo chamber. Not a fan of Buvey, Rory used to be alright but now he will say anything to sound controversial, problem being he changes his own opinion from week to week. I hope that Lawrence rejoins the Kick Off or rebuilds his friendship with Brian. They worked well together.

It's funny that you glance over the incident as just a joke that got him cancelled. If True Geordie had made a similar joke about certain other communities everyone would be applauding Geordie's old mates for leaving him.

[@mainsmain]

What was the joke?

[@E-A-Z-Y]

“The podcaster, whose real name is Brian Davis, was asked by one of his fans during a livestream whether he would fight the former kickboxer. Davis looked annoyed at the suggestion and his podcast colleague, Lawrence McKenna, said True Geordie would never win that fight because Tate has 'God on his side' now. Brian then said he would gladly 'blow myself up if I could take that f**king s**tbag with us'. McKenna jumped in to say that was a problematic stereotype about Islamic people, but Davis double downed. "I'm just saying, if he really wanted to prove it, do the right thing," Brian said while chuckling to himself. The joke didn't go down well and many on social media called the pun Islamophobic.”
