Mind Dobson was too blame but any shot on our goal has got a chance of going in with this utter clown of a goalkeeper.
 

How many were out of position there man?! I dunno where Hume was, Wright had to come across to cover Flanagan who wasn’t there, Dobson therefore dropped back and Sanderson came across and they hit each other.

Fuck. Me.
 
Funny how we apparently have the best defense in this league according to some the last 5 goals we’ve conceded have been horrific
 
His first comment on Sanderson.


- 19/20 PFA commentary analysis

The findings show bias from commentators who praised players with lighter skin tone as more intelligent, as being of higher quality, and harder working than players with darker skin tone.

Players with darker skin tone were significantly more likely to be reduced to their physical characteristics or athletic abilities -- namely pace and power -- than players with lighter skin tone players were.

In numbers:


  • When commentators talk about intelligence:
    • 62.60% of praise was aimed at players with lighter skin tone
    • 63.33% of criticism was aimed at players with darker skin tone
  • When commentators are talking about power they are 6.59 times more likely to be talking about a player with darker skin tone
  • When commentators are talking about speed they are 3.38 times more likely to be talking about a player with darker skin tone
  • When commentators talk about work ethic, 60.40% of praise is aimed at players with lighter skin tone
Criminally shocking, bring back the gulags and throw away... *re check notes*... Errr... Football commentators?

Do you have a study on black commentators commenting on football or was this report built upon one sole demographic of commentators, I'm guessing British?
