Brian Moore

14 Jan 2010

Did anyone else listen to the Radio 2 interview with Brian Moore yesterday (Wednesday 13/01/10) lunchtime ?
I listened while having my lunch at work and thought how much courage it must have taken for him to reveal after all these years he was sexually abused as a child....
I myself had a similar experience when I was not much older than he was at the time of the abuse which I may or may not reveal but I have to say my hat goes off to him displaying such courage and what sounded like a distinct lack of bitterness after what must have been horrific experiences....

I didn't hear the interview Steve, and I'm not trying to stop the thread. Just wondering if you read this as there is a link to quite an interesting article about him in it:

He certainly is courageous speaking out.

i was standing outside bar italia at 3am one night about 5-6 years ago (i think just after england won the rugby world cup) and was eyeing up a very pretty lady. brian moore walks up to me, looking me straight in the chest, and very aggresively asks me if im looking at his bird. i recognised him, thought to myself what a cock he is, realised hes hard as nails, turned around and walked away without saying anything.
now tell me he doesnt have "issues"...

Who said he doesn't have issues dunno

He most likely (in fact I'd put money on it) has.....
I think considering what he went through it's understandable ?
I have "issues" in my life......Who knows where they stem from...........My past experience(s) :dunno:
Does it make me any less of a person because of it ?

I was only saying to Stephen Fry (hes often at my local Aldi) the other day that people change as a result of things that happen to them. He said that will be and for the last time I am not Stephen Fry! I think hes in denial cos of a life trauma. Sometimes I am so glad I am NORMAL.

He wanted to thump you? Blimey, that really does single him out.

There is a lot more of this problem about than many would imagine and in many forms too. When adulthood is reached, it's really for each victim to decide when it's right, if at all, to speak out.
Plim :sad:

The whole reason why people have been talking about him is because he knows he has issues, and has talked about them in remarkable detail and with considerable insight.
