Aunty Andy in 5..4..3..2..1..
He literally said there are only 2 places for women. That’s not being touchy that’s calling someone out for being ignorant and stuck in the past.It's truly staggering that people are that touchy and pathetic to label others "ignorant" or "thick bigots" for having a different opinion.
You must be fun at parties
Well, a direct quote would've helped clear that up, but I'm giving him the benefit of a doubt and assuming it was a tad tongue-in-cheek
Funny how stuff like that always ends up being " tongue in cheek" once someone gets pulled up on it. Even if it was meant ironically I think it would still be 30 years out of date.Well, a direct quote would've helped clear that up, but I'm giving him the benefit of a doubt and assuming it was a tad tongue-in-cheek
Ironically, the reason I assumed it was tongue-in-cheek was precisely because of how out of date and antediluvian it was, but there we go.
On silent
Bloody awful
Dont care what anybody else thinks - I can't stand it
Jesus there's some old sad acts on here, it's 2018, try and keep up
Bloody hell, go out for a couple of hours and the PC brigade turns up. The only reason they have a female commentator is because of all this PC crap, not because she/they are good enough. If a person MAN or WOMAN deserves a position they should get it, not because it’s Politically Correct.
Most of the complaints seem to be about the sound of a woman's voice rather than what she's saying, so it's probably not fair at say she's not got the job on merit.
Otherwise are we saying it's fine for women to commentate, as long as they have a voice as deep as Dave Seaman.
If you are fragile enough that listening to a woman talking about a game ruins your enjoyment of it then the problem is probably yours not hers.
It's just a change from what people are used to, I can guarantee that the same moans were had when the first female newsreaders etc started turning up, and now nobody bats an eyelid.
GAMMON ALERT
The Cwmbranistani doesn't do tongue-in-cheek.
She's fine, better than Tydlesdley & Tyler
Personally I'm not sure if she's commentating well or not because I find her voice to be like listening to white noise.
Red button commentary is good.
I originally thought it was Jacqui Oatley, who I have always thought was dire, but this Vicki Sparks seems to be better.
Some of the male (ex-player) commentators and pundits are far worse though - Henrik Larsson, Giggs (zzzz), Lawrenson.
Vicky Spark was the reporter who David Moyes said 'deserved a slap' for asking him a challenging question.
I'm shocked - SHOCKED - that a thread of this kind is on this forum.
That's equality my dear, there have been plenty of threads on here over the years saying men are crap at things, you didn't see me or Auntie Andy complaining did you?
Were they about a man who had been invited into a predominantly female environment?
That was a joke really but I'm sure there are many men who have to work in predominantly female environments, as a woman who has been involved in the predominantly male environment of djing for over ten years though I can tell you now I would not want anyone giving me a chance just because I'm a woman, if you are good at something your sex will not come in to it.
Sorry I missed your post hun, I’ve been in the kitchen cooking tea whilst multitasking by ironing at the same time.
Off to bed now as I’ve been ordered by my master.
Blessed be the fruit.
What a load of bollocks, just because you’re stuck in the past doesn’t mean everything that’s new and scares you is because of the PC brigade.
There are plenty of talented and knowledgeable women who are football journalists. There is no difference in the male and female genetics which makes one more able to commentate on football so why should it be limited to just men because you like it better?
Look everyone it was clearly tongue in cheek when he said there was only 2 places for women, he isn’t a complete backwards cu........oh
I csmt stand it either. I actually watched the game with english and male commrnt on Mobdro channel NBS sport. Was really good.
FFS they'll be allowed to drive cars and vote next! What is the world coming to?
