Not in Crawley Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 although some of the most bollocks spoken about football is those who have played the game, Steve Claridge immediately leaps to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let hope they don't put 4 robots on there to justify quotas. Merse is funny but he’s no expert Thommo can fuck off into the Mersey Le Tiss is decent. Champagne needs get rid of that earring MOTD for years had Hansen, Lineker and Lawrenson, analysing PL football. Even when none of them had ever played in the prem. They needed to go, they did right by getting in Shearer, Wright and Murphy, younger players who have played the modern game. Sky sports have it ok now with carra Neville Keane. If they’re gonna freshen it up then it needed to be modern top level ex pros bollocks to their race or gender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantra Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Stelling is a great anchorman and does that role really well imo. Merse hasn't got a clue what he's saying but it does make good TV. All the ones that have got sacked, yes had good chemistry together, but Nicholas never said anything of value, Thompson was just average and was the "scouse opinion", Tiss was measured and decent but not charismatic or special in any way. Alex Scott is really good pundit and I get the point that she doesn't have the true experience of Men's top tier football but I don't think that should hold her back, seen as most of the pundits that do have experience can't express their ideas with any cogency. Some of the best football opinions and articles I've seen are on that Tifo Football Youtube channel/The Athletic website who are just writers and normal people interested in football. Glad they're shaking it up a bit. They need to keep that banter element though, otherwise it just turns into Football Focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted August 30, 2020 Moderators Share Posted August 30, 2020 I'd have no problem with Scott being a replacement for stelling She's very good whenever I've seen her And she ticks 2 or 3 boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birch-chorley Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) Presenters are professional presenters, not bothered what background they have Pundits need to have played at the level they are giving punditry on, for me anyway. You may have the best pundit in the world, but if his Background is playing for Wycombe he won’t have the gravitas required to be a solid pundit on the Champions League final. That’s why I’m not a fan of that Black girl who’s always on BBC, don’t have a fucking clue who she is or what she has done Clearly discrimination going on at the BBC and now Sky, all discrimination is abhorrent even if it’s ‘positive’ Edited August 30, 2020 by birch-chorley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really fucking odd. Have Sky even announced any replacements yet? Especially when most of those very same people claim "We don't have a racism problem in the UK"... Perhaps it’s because clearing some white middle age folk out and swapping them with Black people, right at the time you’ve got BLM telling white people in this country that they don’t know their born, would seem like too much of a coincidence I thought BLM was all about not having any discrimination based on race, this move (if indeed they are replaced by black people) would be a clear sign of discrimination Black people make up about 5% of the country, BLM et al bang on about parity all the time. With 3 pundits a week you should see 1 black pundit every 7 weeks, I wonder if it’s going to be more than that, let’s see Its the minority Chinese and Indians who still won’t get a look in, then again they aren’t crowing about being held back because of their skin colour. They are just getting on with out performing both whites and Blacks in every measure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
