Correct I identify most easily with white males my own age. Thats who i gravitate towards as friends. I 'cope' very easily with females from ethnic minorities, one of my closest friends who has helped me through a recent traumatic experience is a Malaysian female.
Don't know how females have...
Avidly watch it. I loved the laddish banter of it all, I can really identify with Charlie, Le Tiss etc, not sure I'll be able to with Sue Smith and Alex Scott and that other little sort (who waved the racism card to get a sackful of money from the FA). Prefer to listen to blokes who have...
Isn't that called 'punditory' ? I bet if Alex Scott and Micah Richards expressed the same views about Newcastle and Brighton you wouldn't call it 'laziness'
It's so amusing it's suddenly the 'in' thing to say 'wow Micah Richards is brilliant' .
No it's not it's racism and sexism. If Alex Scott, Sue Smith and Micah Richards said word for word what Charlie Nicholas and Le Tiss said they would be lauded. They just aren't fashionable are they, middle aged, white, laddie males.
It is a sorry state when two white male laddish guys get sacked in the name of diversity and inclusion. Micah Richards could speak in Chinese saying Port Vale will win the champions league and the woke brigade will laud him as an 'insightful pundit'.
The only fact is Hull were relegated under Marco Silva.
I love women. Have nothing about BAME people either. Just feel jobs in any sector should be given to the best person, it shouldn't be based on skin colour. The trouble with the times we live in if anyone dares utter a syllable of dissent...
Stats can be misleading, he was appointed with a fair amount of the season to go and they got relegated under him. He was sacked by Watford and then Everton. I think Merson had a point. If some female BAME pundit has been critical of his appointment she would now be lauded for her insightful...
Yes they do, the programme starts at midday, from then until the matches start at 3 they discuss what's topical in football and give score predictions.
I would prefer to hear Charlie Nicholas and Le Tissier's opinion on the game than a female who retired from the game today. You can overthink and over analyse all you like and accuse me of all sorts but that's my opinion. Not saying I'm right it's just what I believe.
One post is hardly 'banging on' is it?? Also based on what I read on Jeff Stelling's book 'Jelleyman throws a wobbly' he said those on soccer saturday are 'invited' to be on the show he didn't allude to an' interview process'.
In your desperation to be woke I think you are overthinking things...
Anyone can have an opinion on football, but on men's professional football shows I only want to hear the opinions of those who have played the game to that level.
Was waiting for a smart a**e 'how do you know' comment. Course I don't know for sure.
The problem for me is twofold:
I don't want woman pundits on a men's football show, they've not played the game to a high standard, therefor their opinion is not valid. Let me them be pundits on the park...
