Does me saying I would prefer to see ex or current male professional footballers on a programme about male professional football really warrant such a reaction? I think it's a perfectly reasonable desire and one that is probably shared by many. If that makes me 'sexist' then so be it.

'When you said 'with penises' you mean 'blokes' or 'men' do you? Sorry I'm behind the times is 'with penises' the latest woke way to refer to men? Presumably in your world women are 'people who menstruate' call me old fashioned but I don't see what is wrong with 'men' and women'. Will this get me arrested for a 'hate' crime which is what the Police 'service' seem more interested in nowadays than arresting real criminals.

FWIW I do believe it was a tokenism appointment. A white hetrosexual 'person with a penis' I would imagine wouldn't get anywhere near a top job in the Police at present such is the desire to appease the woke brigade, box ticking and 'quotas' and 'equality' seem to triumph over ability, hence Cressida Dick (amusing irony about her surname).

So you don’t like women in authority ... why didn’t you say so.

Personally I think most pundits are shit and are picked because of who they are rather than what they know. Robbie a Savage being a prime example. The guys that do the football league matches are way better.

You must have had kittens during the olympics. Present by a women who is ... a lesbian! She who made her name covering horse racing!

Where did I say 'I don't like women in authority' ?

Fine you are entitled to your opinion about the pundits.

Don't care who presents the Olympics such is my complete lack of interest in it, it could be a one legged Muslim person who menstruates for all I care.

So women should be on football shows or in the police?

You apparently don’t have issues with women so is it an issue of women on football programmes or in the Police?

As I said 'I want to see ex or current male footballers on a programme about male football'

Never said had an issue with women in the Police.

The apparent pundit replacement lineup for this week is shockingly bad. ****ing Pulis and Sherwood FFS

I’m out (guess it’ll keep some of the traditional viewers happy though).

How ironic that NSC had spent the last month debating a new ‘politically correct‘ Soccer Saturday line up (guessed) and then they bring in the dinosaur Pulis, master of percentages rugby, gamesmanship and time wasting.

I’d like to see a different panel each week Rather than the same old faces

Works well on the weekday evening matches on sky

Not particularly sad to see the back of Thompson and Le Tiss to be honest.

Did think there would be a lady and BAME group filling a couple of the other slots though each week.

Stelling has just publicly tried to get Adam Hurrey sacked for a very mild joke about the show. Worth remembering next time one of the old white banter boys gives it the "it's only my opinion" / "everyone's so sensitive these days" spiel

You can't just post that without any supporting evidence at all. Let's see the evidence, please.

What was the joke? I like Adam Hurrey a lot.

The report claims that Sky are yet to settle on a permanent line up and will rotate the pundits with others, including Robbie Fowler, Joleon Lescott, Matt Murray and Glenn Murray, who recently joined Watford.

Not too bad , could of been a lot worse

For what reason? If you’ve played the game to a professional standard. Regardless of sex, your voice is important

I'm only interested in hearing the views of ex / current male professional footballers on a show about male professional football. I know it's not the right thing to say and I should be promoting a 'diverse mix' etc which is the acceptable view but that's my view. Why for example don't Sky have lower league players on Super Sunday / MNF / Soccer Saturday and BT on CL coverage I guess the reason would be why would we have the Macclefield Town centre back commentating on a level of football he's never played so his views don't hold much gravitas.
