    In what way is it unrecognisable from 2017. It wasn’t so good then and it’s still not so good.

    Could not care less on whether it is a man or woman commentating as long as they are good at their job. I love baseball and last week they showed the start of the playoffs on BBC with 4 games straight. One of the main commentators was a woman called Melanie Newman and she was actually head and shoulders above the guys. She knew the game inside out with stats, tactics, player info etc and she was really entertaining with a great manner alongside her professionalism.
    Must admit I was shocked as baseball is probably one of the most male dominated sports around so by being so shocked I do not know what that says about me. Well I do and that is depressing.

    I'm a fan of blind standards. I couldn't care less about whether your bits are dangly or inverted, if you're good enough/experienced/trained/qualified etc etc then high five - let's go.

    Unlike women’s football, top level women’s tennis and athletics have been long established, and the gender of commentators & pundits is never a point of debate.
    In 20 years time many opinions on here will be likened to Alf Garnett.

    Absolutely, and hopefully sooner than that.

    Complete nonsense, the women’s game will be in exactly the same position as it is now.

    Women do not participate or watch sport like men. Take LFC ladies for example they are selling under 1,000 tickets a game and the rest are available for £ 1 a ticket. They are still getting only about 10,000 people a game even with tickets being a quid.

    There isnt a single womans sport globally that attracts any type of crowd in numbers.

    Even when the football gets big crowds the tickets are given away free to schools etc.

    Women need to support their sports before any type of traction taking place.

    Correct. And trying to change that is precisely what a lot of this is about.

    But with some of the attitudes displayed in this thread, it's still a long way off.

    I was referring to commentators & pundits, not where women’s football will be.

    On your second point, I provided examples in the post you responded to. Also did you catch any of the Solheim Cup?

    Indeed. Some of the opinions on here have really opened my eyes to some of our members.

    Alf really does live on. Unfortunately.

    Alf really does live on mate in Men’s football and thank god it does. Woman have their own game just leave men’s footie to the men. The only reason they get a gig on the men’s footie media is to appease the lily livered PC brigade.

    Should we even let women watch the game?

    They'll be looking for the vote next.

    I think he’s just playing the part of the black hat.
    Realised there is a role for a baddie and grabbed it. He can’t possibly be serious.
