Twitter snowflakes are starting to kick off because she said “going mental” live in the football commentary. :lol:

We can't get rid of racism, we got no chance getting rid of sexism.
 
She also said that Mason Mount will be happy with the three points.

Why isn't she home cooking the Sunday lunch?

Can you see the point of some not liking that word? (I'd also wager some are kicking off for kicking off sake mind, I haven't seen the Twitter outrage).

There are some vile words out there for people who are disabled, they were commonly used years ago. Thankfully you rarely hear them these days (although your Cimla chum used it against me not long ago).

People with mental illnesses are worth no less than disabled, or able body people.

Mental health is only recently starting to be recognised by society as being a real issue, and a real illness.

I'd imagine as more and more people become understanding of mental ill health, more and more people won't like phrases used like the one she said.
 
I liked one she came out with around September time: 'I think Chris (Sutton) makes a very articulate point there, it was very... Err... Good.'
 
She also doesn’t pronounce the t’s when they are in the middle of the word. I found this somewhat annoying when watching Chelsea v Luton.
 
Maybe there’s a feeling the term shouldn’t be used when every shirt in the EFL shows a MIND logo.

A Glo-al stop.
 
There was no intent to cause offence which is all that matters IMO

The outrage should be saved for when Doctors are referring vulnerable people to black and white printouts because the local counselling services that they need are inadequate and overrun, or when DWP assessors are forcing sick people back to work because they have no understanding of the intricacies of mental illness

Just my view
 

Swansea City v Watford
