Eddie Hitler Posted October 31, 2021 Report Share Posted October 31, 2021 Get Frank Skinner in; he'd be brilliant. There isn't a direct replacement for Jeff. He's like John Motson with a great sense of humour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its simply ignorant to undermine its proper usage because you don't like the actions of Sky.

underhanded Posted October 31, 2021 Report Share Posted October 31, 2021 (edited) I'm not a psychologist, but getting angry about a hypothetical 'PC' replacement for a broadcaster on what is a pretty mundane sports news show seems like a pretty weird flex for what was most people's Saturday evening. Also find it very funny to see comments about 'appointment on merit' in regards to a show that has Paul Merson as a pundit. Ha!

Bazooka Joe Posted October 31, 2021 Report Share Posted October 31, 2021 Wouldn't surprise me if Mark Ashton was given the job. Incredibly well connected, hugely ambitious and destined for much bigger things. And soooo popular. (Factcheck true.

Bazooka Joe Posted October 31, 2021 Report Share Posted October 31, 2021 It will be sad to Jeff Stelling go. Great sense of humour, incredibly knowledgable and sharp as a razor. And to be fair to him, he has proudly stuck by his beloved Hartlepool through good and bad times (even though the good times war far and few between). Fortunately for him, supporting Hartlepool is far less embarrassing and humiliating than supporting the woeful Rovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not quite sure why you’re implying my grasp of the English language is poor - it’s not. Speaking in a condescending manner is not a desirable trait in anybody. Social injustice, if you truly understand the term, is in my opinion, the reason for the reshuffle by Sky. Opinion is what this forum is based on, how we interact with each other is a choice. With all that being said though, you can take your opinion and, in the words of Nige, “shove that where the sun don’t shine” 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falmouth - was not a fully-blown university at that time, just a humble art college. Floella was great, really nice woman. Incidentally, I wanted to wear my City shirt under my graduation gown, the Sanderson centenary one made out of that weird material, but my parents talked me out of it - so I ended up wearing a shirt and the most god-awful tie you’ve ever seen. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
