Clique forming amongst the girls?
The Rhydler
01-11-2011
Just felt that last night, the girls on Gbemi's sub team were being quite catty to the other three, especially the laughter over the black mother/white baby thing. And in the boardroom, only those two praised Gbemi as a PM. Just feels like a playground clique is forming a little.

The girls have been extremely lucky these last 2 weeks!

They haven't won the tasks - the boys have lost them!

Gbemi would have been in exactly the same position as Lewis was had she had to go into the boardroom - she was glory seeking for herself and wasn't listening to the others when they tried to get her to let someone else who was much more eloquent do the pitches.

She was VERY lucky that she was persuaded to let Haya do the last pitch - had she done it - she would have been in the boardroom - and without Lewis's redeeming qualities (ability to acknowledge his mistakes) - she would very likely have been a goner!

But her acolyte - the blonde one with the dark roots - is in danger if she ever gets taken in to the boardroom - she suffers from the invisible person syndrome like Ben in the bioys team - not seen to be doing anything much!

Did you hear Gbemi after saying 'I'm so glad I decided to let you do the pitch'!!

But then both PM's were absolute rubbish at giving pitches yesterday, surely if you were a member in either team you wouldn't just stand around and let them pitch again!

I think its very common on Apprentice (kids and adult version) for the subteams to stick together. The remote subteam will naturally feel 'outside the loop' as they ulitimately have to defer to someone who isn't with them, whilst the PM subteam will always be suspicious that the 'others' aren't pulling their weight. Though often they'll be right on that - remember Kate Walsh, Pantsman & Ben Clarke titting about in Manchester doing very little on the pets task.

Yeah, all true.

Just a bit of heroworship going on with Gbemi's sub team for sure.

To be fair Ben Clarke did very little on any task, apart from mention Sandhurst loads of times

I guarantee that Gobby will turn on her two acolytes the moment they are finally in the boardroom firing line together. The worship is definitely one-way !

If you stick like glue to supporting your PM, you don't end up at risk in the boardroom. The PM would open themselves to blame too by criticisiing people they should directly have been managing. Someone has to go - so its the other sub team that will be targetted. It was very noticeable that the PM's subteam joined her when she found a target with an argument to use if they lost - and that subteam all jumped up and down saying what a wonderful PM they had had, to avoid getting in her target sights.

great thread - the blonde girl sucking up to Gb - especially in the taxi when she said yeah thanks for the phonecall and then in the boardroom I thought she was a great team leader, really decisive. One to be watched that one.
