Come on boys we can do this. 45 minutes. Play your hearts out. Just two bits of proper quality is all we need.

Of course there are. But the difference is, they get judged because they are shit, not because they are men.

Twunts like Barton generalise an entire gender as shit commentators because one or two are, and plenty of people are, sadly, willing to go along with that
Hope you’re not suggesting I was doing this. I will discuss any co com on here on our games happily. This one has been appalling - not bringing her gender into it - it’s a shame a few did but you don’t need to react by pointing out there’s poor male comms to anyone criticising her just because she’s a female… or that’s making gender an issue right? We’re not all the same remember.
 




No, the wolves fans thought we were the better team after 3 minutes and have been impressed with some of our passing.

Yep too negative - Wolves are a good team these days and this is no Luton

Please give up on Steele and let Verbruggen be our number one.

Thank you :thumbsup:
Nope, talking out of your arse
We’ll win this. Finding myself really enjoying this game. No one can expect the usual free-flowing football with so many injuries in key positions, not to mention it only great playmaker on a red, but a scrappy enjoyable watch nonetheless. And no one can fault the attitude, even or minuscule players are winning way more duels and second balls than expected.

Early goal in the second, two more pints and then a late winner, Fati beautifully served by Adingra.
I like you, will you be my friend!
Tbf he has Peupion outside him which isn't going to be helping.
Peupion at 21 is no where near the level of the 1st team lads younger than him. Peupion has been thrown under the bus a bit here...
Nope, talking out of your arse
I am the only one that thought we looked the more dangerous of the two sides? Enciso and Welbeck on and we can win this.
I like you, will you be my friend!
That’ll be Gilmour.
Just because he's scottish, it's not just his fault

Oh I quite agree. But the male commentator has also been pretty ropey in this game, yet I don't see nearly as much stick coming his way.

Equally, I'm just a clueless Doris though, so what right do I have to an opinion.

He’s not been anywhere near as annoying and wrong as her so I haven’t personally spoken about him - she’s taken the limelight a bit.

And again, nobody thinks you’re a clueless Doris or has said it so don’t take offence!

Was EK replying to you? Maybe there’s your answer

No I wasn't suggesting it was you.

And yes, yes I do have to react like that because of comments (not by you) like "clueless Doris". I don't have to tolerate that sort of shit and I'm not going to.

Poor mistake from Steele. Not our best performance coming up against a difficult Wolves team, but there have been some moments of promise and it’s only one goal. Still got a chance.

Which is extremely unfair, as I've had to listen to Danny Murphy, Jermaine Jenas and Steve McManaman for years and I don't see anybody shouting about how male co-commentators should all go back to the golf course.
Ironically, the co commentator Rachel Jones-Finnis is married to Ian Finnis, who is a professional golf caddie

yep - it’s not a gender thing and it’s a shame some have made some poor comments. But just cos she’s a women doesn’t mean she shouldn’t get criticism too - or it’s just sexism the other way🤦🏻‍♂️🤣
Agreed. The co commentator is just poor, not helped by an equally poor lead commentator. First half highlights:
Fell to Bounanotte’s feet… he headed it wide
Steele could be in trouble here
What was that raking incident a few weeks ago?
