Female Commentators the Norm for all games now?

[Rip Van Fish]

The ICC must have had nothing on their agenda at their last 5 star Dubai meeting.

Isha Gua- or whatever her name is. Is she the one that said she fancied the pants off Ten Doeschate on live TV once?

And to think Chris Gayle went through the ringer for such behaviour

 

[ProfessionalMackem]

If they add something to the game and are not annoying I'm all for it. Plenty of male dicks and dullards commentate.

 

[Parkside]

Isha Gua is excellent as is the piece whose commenting on Sky in the Test. Pleasantly spoken and very knowledgeable. Problem in football generally is they shriek.

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

The cricket forum hates them.

I think they’re all better than Swann or Pietersen

 

[brandon]

Still yet to hear a decent one. Until such a time as I do, they can fuck off to women's cricket.

 

[leecoo]

Mel farrell is pretty decent, better than a lot if the English ones I've heard

 

[Scotty 1978]

I don’t mind Ali Mitchell on TMS, but thought she was shit on The Ashes on BT

Polite and decent as normal I see, the female ones in the IPL were decent.

I be surprised if you would admit it,, as your previous posts suggest you have a negative bias towards women pundits/commentators before they even open their mouth!!

In your opinion.

 

[Voice of fair play]

In your opinion.

Yep, I could be wrong, but you don't exactly come across as impartial and open minded where women are concerned both in writing and commenting on sport.

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

In your opinion.

it’s hardly an opinion. Just see your first post on the this thread for evidence

 

[Ceverton]

May get used to it but I am not keen on women commentators like, switched off Test today because of it.

It is exactly an opinion. Just as my view on female commentators is an opinion.

I could say "women commentators are shit FACT", but saying the word FACT doesn't make it fact. It's purely an opinion.

My first post on this thread is evidence of nothing but my opinion on the topic proposed. I stand by that opinion that there are ZERO female cricket commentators who are any good. I reiterate, when I hear one I think is decent, I'll say. You can believe that if you want or you can't, I'm not really arsed either way.

Fair enough, again, an opinion.

You’ve misunderstood completely.

 

[brandon]

You’ve misunderstood completely.

No, I don't believe I have. I stated my opinion on the first post of the thread. You saying it's hardly an opinion doesn't make it not an opinion does it?

Care to explain how my opinion isn't actually my opinion?

It was your retort to you saying @Voice of fair play had an opinion. I’m saying it’s fact that you’re biased. And you’ve just shown it

Nah, you're wrong. I know you don't like me, but no amount of you saying its fact makes it so.

It's an opinion. Even VoFP agreed it was.

I don’t dislike you at all. I disagree with your views on women in cricket

 

[brandon]

That's completely fine. You're more than entitled to disagree with me, I just don't understand why you feel the need to tell me that my opinion (or VoFP's opinion) is fact.

I still think you misunderstand my point, but never mind
