Reference:
i'd just like to comment on this audition/lockdown thing...........now.....there has been alot of talk of sam upsetting a woman with one leg........josie and mario have both said it.........now when this has been discussed on here......the general opinion of sam fans was........'we weren't there we didn't hear it so don't believe it'.............its just josie and mario's word............so can i ask......why is it that sam's account of lockdown/auditions is now taken as gospel just because he said it?......that's just his side of it......yet immediately it's 'josie has no loyalty' etc etc........you dismiss one account from josie and mario........yet accept sam's...........as none of us were privvy to their time in lockdown etc........surely none of us know?........its not a balanced arguement to completely dismiss one version under the guise of......'we weren't there'.......to then completely accepting anothers as the truth
Spongy, I hear you.
I have to confess, that I have never heard of Mario's and Josies negative experiences in lock-down with Sam. I have only heard vaguely form Dave that Sam annoyed everyone who had met him..(this is before sam went into the house) I hear what you say and yes, it must seem one sided for Josie dislikers to believe Sam and not Josie.
I can only say that Josie knows how to turn on the charm. She has a fine line in pretend solidarity...whether it be with her "'uzbaaands" or the girls. What Sammy said rang true from what I have seen of Josie. I can imagine that she pretended to be best mates with Sammy if it worked for her and LEAD him to think he had a friend in her.
Whatever Sammy is, he is not duplicitous IMO. Josie is nothing but.. I have seen it time and time again. Maybe not duplicitous, but cold and calculating... insincere. There is nothing genuinely warm about her. I don't put it past her to make out to Sammy that they were bezzie muckhers and then shaft him when it came to the crunch. She may have spotted that he had loads of potential and thwarted him.
But I do see what you say too Spongy.. that there are two sides...
