A man in his late 60s should be able to take some basic accountability.

Are you still waffling on ..

I am. You need to get better at comeback if you insist on defending yourself and your misogyny. Paper-thin defensive deflection only goes so far when it’s a recurring theme. Just own what you say, man. It’s not hard.

So you think you should just be allowed to blame the suicide of sports-players on women-commentators who you don’t find attractive and spout more of the most blatant misogyny, with no-one calling you out on your misogyny because it’s ’the same-old people ganging up on you and weaponising your autism’? Between playing dumb and being genuinely oblivious to how sexist and demeaning to women your posts are and knowing exactly what you’re doing but allergic to taking accountability and owning your misogyny because you’ve been babied and enabled all your life and never held to account for anything, I’d guess it’s the latter.

It’s not just the same-old. It’s anyone with eyes. Take. Accountability. For once in your life. Grow up. Be an adult.

And by all means, ‘sooOoooo … wow!!! go back to your what irritates me thread’ me. My point still stands. People are sick of you using your autism to excuse your vile, pervy attitude to women.

Yeah sorry Zizu but that's nonsense that you need to have played professionally to commentate on a sport.

Lots of the biggest commentators have never played professionally (Motson, Clive Tyldesley etc) and neither have most football journalists. You often get better insights from non players tbh, ex pros speak more in cliches or just point out the obvious

You know what you're doing. You explain it, you justify it, so you do understand.

Well my specialist subject sport wise is football and the female pundits talk absolute hogwash more often than not .. unless they are just recycling what their fellow ( male) pundits are saying ..

Karen Carney often says … “ well it’s as Wrighty was saying” or “ I agree with Gary “

Her own comments rarely have any substance


Call me old fashioned but if they are discussing attacking I want Wrighty , midfield Roy Keane .. defending … Gary Neville or Martyn Keown .., not Karen Carney who we’ve never seen play or some ex female player who managed to play 135 games over 15 seasons at a time when they weren’t even fully professional

Anyway I’m out … you lot are impinging on my greek holiday

Punditry isn't a problem for me because ever since i can remember i rarely watch any build up for games (unless very big Chelsea games). At HT i don't listen to any of them talk, usually just check X and other SM stuff to see what's being said. And after the game, again unless a big game for Chelsea, or something highly controversial has happened in game, i turn off. I don't need to listen to them talk me through what i've just watched. Men, women, i have little interest in their "analysis"

There are a few commentators i have genuine disdain for though, people like Steve McManaman. Michael Owen and Lee Dixon, their commentary is beyond awful. Presenter wise, meh, dunno really. I watch most of my games on streams for free, so it's usually US or AUS coverage. Will say this though, i cannot stand Alex Scott, she's on the BBC for the most part, but again, easily avoided, switch over 1 min before kick off, make a cuppa at HT, then switched off after the final whistle.

Firmly seconded. Utter, utter disgrace of a man and a disgrace to the neurodivergent community.

God knows how his wife has put up with him for half a century (if, indeed, she even exists). That poor, poor woman.

We like to take a picnic and watch our local village cricket team when they're at home. They're bloody awful, but it's a nice way to spend an afternoon.

Well, you are a woman, and it is a sport after all, how could you possibly know the rules. But it's nice your husband allows you a day out of the house here and there. Just make sure you only speak when spoken to ok
