Had to be a bird innit! Ticks all the boxes..

What about the gay bloke box?

 

[Andrew - North Hill]

I think it's fantastic. Will probably annoy a lot of gammons who will give themselves a coronary demanding that "it should always be a man".

Brilliant presenter, she is awesome on Sky, no-nonsense, always asks probing questions, great choice by the Beeb.

 

[A4Jack]

She's one of the best on Sky Sports.

No ego and talks real sense

I agree. Good presenter and has been around for some time.

Nothing to do with the fact she is really good at what she does and her old fella was one of Liverpools greatest players.

It's cracking choice.

It puzzles me when grown men get so wound up that a women gets a job to talk about football.

Fuck me and people wonder why footballers struggle to come out.

 

[Dr. Winston]

I get people waiting up to watch MOTD before t'internet, but when all the Prem goals are available for free about an hour after the game on the Sky website anyway I'm kinda surprised that people still do, no matter who presents it.

And yet don’t get wound up when watching male pundits who can’t present and hold a decent conversation.

Did you take that comment seriously?

Yep, truly bizarre.

That’s very true. I hardly ever watch the Saturday night show. Sunday morning is more my thing with a butty and a cuppa.
