I'd go as far as arguing that the female game should have female commentators only. No it’s not sexist. It’s an opinion. We’re all aloud one . My wife thinks the female commentary is shit . I don’t like it . But there is so much opportunity for women in football . Which is fantastic. No need to try and prove a point. People can give this a rubbish. But women’s commentatory in football is shit . I don’t want to listen to women commentating on men’s football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Christ. If you are automatically saying you don't like all female commentators on the basis that they are female that is literally the definition of sexism. I'm not saying you can't have that opinion. I'm not telling you what to think. I'm just stating the facts. Whether I know any decent female pundits is completely irrelevant.

Nobody said they didn't like female commentators because they are women... It's more the fact that there are no decent women pundits or commentators out there, the only half decent one I've seen is Alex Scott, but she's the best of a pretty awful bunch. Until that changes its obvious that there are no female commentators who are good at commentating or being pundits, nothing to do with them being women they just aren't very good at it regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, of course he is allowed his opinion. But whether the statement he made is sexist or not is fact, not opinion. You can say you don't happen to like any of the current female pundits. That is completely fair. But if you say you hate all female pundits because they are female, then that is by definition sexism. Anyways enough of the lesson in semantics.

Johnny Musicworks Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 ‘I’m not racist but’ comes before a racist statement ’’Im not sexist but’ likewise by definition is said by someone who is about to make a sexist statement. A statement that shows prejudice, stereotypes or discriminates against women is sexist however anyone pretends that it is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I didn't see the first quote, don't agree with that at all as I would like to hear women getting in to men's football, just as long as they aren't taking the role from a man who commentates better just because they are a woman if you get what I mean... Gabby logan has certainly improved as a pundit, still think she has plenty to work on though to be at the level of others. At least she is better than lawro...
