Having fans down there has been a huge boost to us this season imo. They should do the presenting/analysis from a studio in Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only 3 points you'll be getting is off the average speed cameras between Dunblane and Perth ! Edited February 4, 2022 by DUAFC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, Luddite is clearly an utter roaster - apparently your sex automatically determines how good a commentator you are. Interestingly, in terms of AU media - the female commentator is by far the most insightful. Not surprising to see the comment has been liked by Kilmarnock’s resident roaster either, who has been polluting the Ayr thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtielegend Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 The men and women are all mediocre commentators to be honest. The ones championing the female commentators are doing so because they have such low expectations of women, that them being equally mediocre as men surprises them. Pure sexism and it wouldn't surprise me if they are racist in the same way. It's probably these people who have kept Garth Crooks (who is objectively awful at punditry) in a job. On a par with Hitler, Stalin, Obama and Sturgeon, this lot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tattie36 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) There are quite obviously good, bad and downright terrible commentators and pundits out there - regardless of their sex. Personally I think Leanne Crichton is decent. She’s played to a high level: Champions League, World Cup etc (cue “aye but wifie’s fitba is shit” comments) which is as high as it goes in women’s football and she obviously knows what she’s talking about. I fail to see how some mannies talking pish down the pub or on an internet forum, who’ve never played to a decent level, seem to think they would be more competent than an ex high level pro just because she’s a woman. Anyway - home win! Edited February 4, 2022 by Tattie36 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly the male commentators were just as cliche’d , but it was her tone I didn’t like (shrieky). That’s my personal taste, I prefer non-shrieky, non-cliche’d commentators and as I already have a lovely lady in my life I don’t need to pretend to be a sensitive feminist to get my hole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
