    Female sports commentators.

    Watching BBC score updates yesterday and the wife who does not like football said I can't stand all these women doing updates on the games it doesn't sound right, just wondered how others feel about this.

    We’re all supposed to say how wonderful they are.

    They are absolute s h I t.

    99.9% of those commentating will never have played in a competitive game,even on a local field when they were kids or on the school playground.

    You need to have experience of playing a game at whatever level to be able to commentate properly.

    I like American Football and watch a lot of it but there’s no way I could commentate on it and I enjoy the ex pro’s and commentators who really know the sport inside out.........there are also no females commentating which tells you something.

    The whole thing is based around the PC dictat.

    Virtually every TV programme and advert these days features a mixed race couple or a gay couple or a black one eyed,one armed trans***ual single mother with a cleft pallet in a desperate search for diversity.

    If you did a poll of how many same *** couples and women footballers most of us know the % would be minute compared to the ratio rammed down our throats on TV.

    The latest insult is for Gabby Logan being given an award on the New Year's Honours list for "services to broadcasting". Shouldn't think long time broadcasters would be happy about that, but of course, if you fill the box, you're in.

    Great Britain is about 90 percent white but you wouldn't know it when watching the TV ads these days, sometimes I wonder if I'm a having a pleasant dream and relaxing in some Caribbean hotel watching the box. As for women commentators they are atrocious, can't stand all that screeching and squawking just like them screaming bit part actors from rearenders

    I don't know which I dislike most. Women commentators attempting to look so knowledgeable about the game and talking like they have been around for years or sanctimonious, self-righteous tw*ts like Lineker.

    Gabby Logan deserves her gong for services to giving me a hard on.

    In that regard Kirsty Gallagher should by knighted!

    TV ads are pushed in your face in an attempt to force an accepting state of mind.

    So true Boingy.

    Brainwashing by the metropolitan elite that overrun our media.

    Well, I'll give "Dreams" a miss when looking for my next bed as I don't seem to fit their agenda.
