Woman commentator on MOTD

Really not arsed by it like. It’s a male game watched by anyone and everyone, so really not bothered what sex someone is who wants to chat about it.
 
Don't know why it bothers people to be honest. Just somebody describing the events.
Was there this uproar when the first female newsreaders appeared?
 
I am not sexist in the least, but what the fuck is going on?

Political correctness at its worst. Most are utter dogshite.

Just not right is it?

Yeah. I know that I will get slaughtered.....but sometimes something has to be said...

I just don’t think the female voice lends itself to commentary, Nothing against those females who have tried.
I do however feel there are some very good presenters particularly Gabby Yorath who is head and shoulders above most men. Who ever that was who stood in for her on motd2 night was good as well.
As pundits I think Alex Scott does ok in a hard gig. Albeit Iam not quite sure why you have a pundit who never played the mans game ...when their purpose is supposed to give hands on insight. My view is as valid as a woman’s in that respect.

Helen Chamberlain was class on Soccer AM on Sky.
 
I like Alex Scott. She has a lot of knowledge about the game.
I cant stand female commentators due to the high pitch shrieking when anything remotely interesting happens.
I put the game on mute as soon as I know it's a female commentator as I would if I found a male commentator so hard to listen to.
 
Trying too hard to sound like a female Jonathon Pearce.

Oh dear me. He has always been rubbish and he talks down to the viewer.

… and Clinton Morrison - is he just trying a bit too hard to be down with the boys streetwise or whatever the current terminology is?

You missed my sarcasm mate. Bit of a 'whoosh' as the kids may say. Sarcasm not sexism. And I don't hunt, I'm vegan. I am hard and masculine though. And feminist.

Hope this helps.
 
Alex scott must be getting a fortune flitting between her token female duties on bbc and sky. She isnt too bad actually but the while female invasion of sports tv is annoying as fk to be honest.
Tokenism at its worst.

Alex Scott's OK, as is the lassie that pops up on EFL on Quest with Colin Murray, apologies to her for not knowing her name. At least they have some knowledge of the game and are not too screechy. Vicky f***ing Sparkes is like scratching fingernails down a chalkboard!
