Some will say what Jimmy did was just banter but was he just disguising it to make a point to Jake that many people up and down the land will be saying and that is why is he in the jungle?
Going by the reaction of Jake, the truth did hurt. |

So, what is the truth. that Jake is known by millions, was invited onto the show the same as every one else, and seems like a nice guy. if you want to spout the truth then spout the whole truth, and don't cherry pick for maximum offence.
Well at least we know the truth about Jimmy now....he's a nasty piece of work. |

I have saw this mentioned a few times. Why would an ex Premier league footballer be jealous of some one who got voted out of the x factor and a nobody as a singer?
Think it through a bit more. |

Can I ask, what would you have done in Jake's place?
Which is what Jake has done. Fair play, he has taken the money but he has no intention of working as a singer. |

An ex Premier league footballer that isn't a coach a manager a pundit a plasterer or a brickie, is probably unemployed. What is he?

I'm sure he is fine. At least he got famous for a genuine talent.

That's the thing with bullies, they always know who to single out for abuse, he wouldn't have done it to Edwina (not that I'm her biggest fan), in fact he wouldn't have done it if Edwina had been there.

Jake is not known by millions, that is nonsense. If you asked most Premier league fans in England, they would know who Jimmy Bullard is.

Jake is a decent guy, if ITV offered you £100k to go to the jungle for a couple of weeks, you'd take it.
In my opinion its the ITV producers who have messed up a bit. A bit desperate, surely they could have got someone more famous! |

Well Simon Cowell did say something right last night about people just wanting to use the show to be famous, regardless if it's to do with singing.

Over 7 million people watch the X Factor. Therefore Jake is known by millions of people. Jimmy is known by supporters of Wigan and Hull

He probably is but what Jimmy said was true, even if it was crossing the line a bit. Jake has also been a bit false to me in recent episodes, well mostly since he arrived.

Jimmy shot himself in the foot. He went from hero to zero in 1 minute. When he watches it back on da big screen, he can reflect on it for the rest of his life.

What do you mean though? About going in or his "banter" with Jimmy? I would have went in, not having a go at him for that.
How would you have reacted to Jimmy? |

We will see, you could be right. But I'm not a big fan of him anyway, I find him trying too hard. Same with Jake.
I have been wrong before.

You said you thought the truth hurt. I saw him behaving like an adult when being childishly and cruelly attacked.
How would you have reacted to Jimmy? |

I got to be honest, Jake went up in my estimation yesterday. He could easily have reacted in a childish and nasty way to jimmy, but he didn't. He was clearly hurt but didn't go off and sulk either. He maintained his dignity and was mature. A lot to be said for that.

But he created no impact. He wasn't a Wagner or Rylan and is infamous from the show. He was just another in and out contestant, cannon fodder.

I don't watch X factor but yes Jake has to be better known through that alone.
I've never heard of Jimmy and know nothing about football. Was he a good player?

Jimmy had every right to speak the truth. Should a Doctor hide the test results from a patient because 'the truth hurts'?
From my perspective, Jake is more famous than Jimmy (therefore true for me) because I have absolutely no interest in football. |

My husband has had Banter with Bullard and said that he (Jimmy) didn't really join in with it when they were 'ribbing the f@@k' out of each other. However, footballers do have 'banter' it's harmless. And Jimmy wouldn't have liked to be compared to an old man. So he gave it back in banter. It's all about the bants these days.

Banter isn't banter when it's abuse and is clearly upsetting the person on the receiving end.
