After the win over Everton he said this (or rather, didnt):


Here is the full transcript ...


Q: A deserved win Avram?
Grant: 'Yes.'


Q: What particularly pleased you about the performance?
Grant: 'I'm pleased.'


Q: What in particular pleased you?
Grant: (after an eight second delay): 'I don't know.'


Q: Is it a relief to win here?
Grant: 'Yes.'


Q: You seem lost for words by the performance. Are you more satisfied with the performance or the victory?
Grant: 'Both.'


Q: You seem distracted. Do you have a problem?
Grant: 'No problem.'


Q: Is there an issue?
Grant: 'No. I'm ok. I have nothing to say.'


Q: Do you have a message for the Chelsea fans?
Grant : 'You represent the Chelsea fans?'


Q: They must believe you are still in the title race, do you have a message for them?
Grant: 'No message.'


Q: Does this result mean you are back in it now?
Grant: 'I don't know.'


Q: How many steps have you climbed to undertake this press conference?
Grant: 'I don't know.'


Q: You seem less voluble than usual. Is it because of Sky TV moving the game to a Thursday?
Grant: 'Maybe it's because of you. I don't know. I am ok.'


Q: You are saying that you don't know if you are still in the title race?
Grant: 'No.'


Q: Is it easier to say nothing Avram?
Grant: 'I don't know what to answer. It is a good question. I don't know what to answer.'


Q: Is this because of Sky?
Grant: 'No. Sky is ok. I enjoy watching them.'


Q: Is it a protest against newspapers?
Grant: 'No. Why?'


Q: Why else would you come in and refuse to answer our questions?
Grant: 'I answer every question.'


Q: You are two points behind Manchester United and you don't know if you are still in the title race?
Grant: 'No.'


Q: Have you told the players that you don't know if you are back in the title race?
Grant: 'What I tell the players is something else. You want me to tell you what I say to the players?'


Q: We just want you to answer the question, really. Are you in the title race?
Grant: 'I don't know.'


Q: Would you not like to gain some positive publicity for the result rather than this bizarre silence?
Grant: 'I'm sorry. You can write whatever you want and I can answer what I want.'


Q: Do you feel under pressure to deliver a trophy. Is that the reason for the monosyllabic answers?
Grant: 'No.'


Q: Are you upset? Do you feel you have been misrepresented? Grant: 'Maybe I have said because it is a bad season.'


Q: Did Michael Essien faint?
Grant: 'He had some problems, but he is ok.'


Q: Michael Ballack?
Grant: 'Injured.'


Q: What's his problem?
Grant: 'Ask the doctor.'


Q: He's not here Avram.
Grant: 'Well call him then.'


Q: Have you ever played the yes/no game Avram?


Chelsea press officer: 'This is going nowhere. Let's end it.'

haha. . cant wait for the video to hit the net.

surprisingly its absent from the skysports video section.

Don't ask me why, but I actually respect that kid of attitude towards the media.

I look forward to Chelsea's stance the next time the TV contracts are up for negotiation. No doubt they will continue their stubborn approach and refuse to take Sky's money

Who cares about Avram.

It was a good result for Liverpool, so hopefully they'll roll over and let Fulham have the 3 points on Saturday.

that's more sense than you'd get out of juande ramos.


i quite like avram, he obviously has alot to live up to stepping into mourinho's shoes and he's keeping the pressure on for the title race under the circumstances. no one wants to see man utd run away with it do they??

Hope so too, BIG game Andrew.

COYW!

That was for the written press only so I dont think there will be a video of it.

Avram "Eddie" Grant. Like uncle fester but less like-able.

sounds like he's heading for a >>>> breakdown.

.....and a serial killing spree

The black clothes , the hangdog expression , the deep haunted eyes - he has serial killer written all over him.
