didn't he have this position some years back?

Yes. Twice before. But I’m sure he’ll get it right the 3rd time

They didn't want to ask Martha if she had some free time?

didn't he have this position some years back?

Yes and he accused Beth Tweddle of possibly using steroids.

I'm not a Martha fan per se, but she'd probably do a better job than Forminte. I imagine she would take zero crap from the Voineas. In fact, watching the Voineas try to pass stuff over on her would probably be entertaining because of that.

What about B&B lol

I'm bored, so I wanted to look at the numbers for Forminte's previous tenure (2017-2020), just to highlight how absurd his appointment is.
