Interesting ..

I get a fair amount of grief for complaining about the increase of women pundits and commentators on men’s matches who completely ruin the whole thing for me … a few suggest I’m being sexist or whatever …

Anyway TalkSport presenter Sports broadcaster Shebahn Aherne has just stated that she and her female friends now watch Match of the Day and other footie programmes because they like Kelly Cates and Gabby Logan ( Yorath) but never bothered when Gary Lineker presented it !!!

It's certainly interesting from Shebahn.

She's not fully thick to say the quiet part out loud (unlike Eni Aluko,) but I've got my eye on her now for possible Misandry.

Especially if she's preferring Gabby Logan to Gary Lineker, that's borderline criminal.

That gobby woman off the Apprentice was the guest for an hour on TalkSport this morning..

She proudly explained how she had helped and enabled countless numbers of women to get jobs in all sectors of football to balance the numbers .. no mention of the best person for the job/s just as long as they were female ( men’s football - she didn’t even mention women’s football !)


No wonder our beautiful game is going to the dogs .

Why Peckham-roadman culture appeals to people. I understand the bad-boy attraction but why would you want to be deeply involved in that lifestyle, risking getting stabbed/shot every day? For what?

What Izzie (Waterloo Road) ever saw in Jimmy Grainger. They seemed so unmatched, with not a spark of chemistry between them. At one point, Jimmy really needed sectioning. Bunny-on-the-roof was not normal behaviour. Not necessarily his fault but rooted in irresponsible pettiness, which was a character-flaw to begin with, along with being a deadbeat dad.

The way the texture of candy-floss (a bit overly frizzy on the teeth) jars with the nice taste of it.

Raven’s Home (sequel to That’s So Raven): a schizotypal kid of Raven’s (or Chelsea’s, even) could’ve added layers that were/are still family-friendly. Psychic in a more socially peculiar, dulled, eccentric way could’ve bounced off-of Raven’s social vibrancy in an interesting way. And a schizotypal would be less likely to feign dumb about their psychic edges and mystical quandaries. They might be hesitant but that guardedness comes from natural hesitation and social restraint as a personality-trait, not because it’s a secret that they “psychic”. A more organic hesitation off the back of their natural awkwardness and not a sitcom-secret that makes them play dumb about it to everyone who’s not in their immediate circle of family and closest friends.

We need more schizotypal representation on TV in-general. Gina Williams (Cindy Beale’s sister, EastEnders) is there as a template that, again, isn’t too family-unfriendly, besides the fact that EastEnders in-general obviously isn’t really meant for little kids in live time). Raven’s Home isn’t (just) for little kids, either. So a bit of abstruse, slightly dark mysticism wouldn’t be too jarring with the nature of a show about psychics in the first place either. I could ride on-board with that. And I’m sure lots of other people could, too. Missed beat.

Didn't you know?

Fraudsters, Drug Dealers, and people who make offensive Social Media posts are more of a menace to society.

I'm being exaggeratory obviously, but the sentences are a lot closer than they should be given the fact that the one criminal is a murderer.
