Kevin Keegan and women commentators

[Timbertop]

Getting pilloried for saying he doesn't like women commentators passing their judgement on men's football.We've talked about it in the pub tonight and everyone was behind him. However the equality diversity brigade have gone to town on this and he's getting hammered for his opinions.

Just takes some getting used to. A bit like women bus drivers 40 years ago but they are commonplace today.

So Keegan is ok with the women to pay good money to go and watch football but thinks they shouldn't have an opinion on it?

He didn’t say they shouldn’t have an opinion he said he doesn’t like listening to them.
What’s wrong with that?
That’s the problem now everyone is looking to be offended on someone else’s behalf.
He gave an honest opinion I bet loads more agree but won’t dare say so because of cancel culture.
Fair play to him.

Exactly
I don’t mind a few who know what they’re talking about but some just ****ing drone on and that’s down to the pc world who probably don’t even watch/listen to football

This is what he actually said...

“I’m not as keen, I’ve got to be honest, and it may not be a view shared. I don’t like to listen to ladies talking about the England men’s team at the match because I don’t think it’s the same experience. I have a problem with that.”

“The presenters we have now, some of the girls are so good, they are better than the guys. It’s a great time for the ladies. But if I see an England lady footballer saying about England against Scotland at Wembley and she’s saying, ‘If I would have been in that position I would have done this,’ I don’t think it’s quite the same. I don’t think it crosses over that much.”

My feelings exactly, PC world gone mad again.Nothing wrong with what he says at all.

Kelly Gates & that Francesca woman on ITV racing are living on their fathers name cause it's not cause of knowledge of the sports they are involved in.

Fara Williams is streets ahead of most male pundits. She tells me things I don't know about the game and opens up a new perspective on how the match is developing

Rio
Carlton Cole
Shearer etc

It just like your mates talking in the pub, no insight at all.

Gary Neville is the best pundit with Farar a very close second
