Alex Scott new host of Football Focus

[nmc]

If David Coleman’s gaffs became Coleman Balls...wonder what her gaffs will be known as

Scotts Eggs

 

[Franny's toilet roll]

Not a big fan of some of the women commentators and pundits, can't stand a screeching high pitch commentary and some of the punditry leaves a lot to be desired but then again i don't like many commentators or pundits these days . Alex Scott knows her stuff and is nice to look at so she's ok in my book. I do find though at times there is a distinct lack of any males in the sports anchor and summary role. Gabby Yorath is ok and if your into Moto GP etc i could watch Suzi Perry all day long, every day of the year. - and she knows her stuff.

As long as she is straight back in the kitchen when filming is over,eh?

 

[Franny's toilet roll]

really any need for that ?

no, i'll hang my head in shame , but she does like to wear those outfits

Not watched football focus for years but Alex Scott in a tight top and leather trousers might change that.

I met Suzi at Brands Hatch when I was in the hospitality tent with Suzuki. She’s a real beauty, but so lovely and had time for everyone.

The only famous person i have ever met (sportsmen aside) in hospitality was bloody Jimmy Savile

Did he fix it ?

Let's try to keep the discussion to her ability to do the job, not how she looks or how fit she is, eh?

 

[moomba]

Excellent football commentator/pundit. Don't always agree, but think she's genuine in.the opinions she has.

Also fit (sorry).

@jimharri i don't think anyone has been sexist or nasty, to me it is actually taking the piss out of the sexist attitudes blokes had/have as shown in the above clip.
She stands or falls on whether she can do the job, not on how she looks.

I will miss Danny boy. Gorgeous bit of stiffness. Up yours matron.

 

[Gundog’s Gundog]

She seems to get overvalued as a pundit precisely because she's a woman. If a bloke came out with the same stuff she does, they'd be labelled as dull and pointless. Points out the obvious, keeps it safe and adds next to nothing. She's the female equivalent of Ashley Cole.

There's worse about, much worse but she's far from being good. Is she any better as a presenter? No idea but if it stops her being a pundit give her a shot.

Chappers is by far the best sports presenter, his football and nfl coverage is unparalleled.

Chappers is a very good broadcaster, a worthy heir to the giants of yesteryear although maybe he’s just a little bit too light hearted too often for my liking. But I’m a grumpy ****.

HAHA

Very good

Unfortunately, the BBC these days tend to lay much more store on how stuff 'looks' rather than providing a top quality programme. Their coverage of football is just dire, biased, corner of 'the snug' and infused with an attempt to be all things to all Rags 'n Dippers.

Oh I totally agree, for one thing she will not be on the same money as the men, its the bbc way. Equality for all, some may get more equality than others but that's life

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Great Scott. She's a fine looking lass. She can replace Lineker aswel.

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Is there a programme she isn't on?

shes on less than Rylan

6 out of the top 13 biggest BBC earners are women.

 

[jimharri]

Has it actually been officially announced yet? I don't recollect seeing anything official about it as of yet, just lots of rumours on social media.
