Media discussion - 2024/25

[cheekybids]

Not really media but not worth starting a new thread for - just watching the golf & the commentators put football commentators to shame. They explain every stroke & don’t think there’s anything wrong with keeping quiet. They certainly don’t jabber on continually about stats & what happened 20 years ago.

Football commentators are really poor

When Sky got involved it was a race to the bottom.

Same with the cricket. Puts football to shame.

The 3 main detractors namely the scouse the rags and the tarquins are all owned by the yanks, we have allowed our game to go to the highest bidder just by subscribing to SKY and ot allowing these villains to infest our game with the promises of success and prestige.

All the while this bunch are killing our game, all for profit with no thought for the traditional fan. Push back stop buying the shit they are offering and stop the rot.

However when the rotten 3 have a plastic fan base they don't care about the cultural significance of football in this country the tiktok and youtube cunts.

I don't watch tennis ( only sports I like are footy and rugby league). However was sat with a poorly relative in summer and it was a,pleasure to keep them company. They are avid tennis fans, so we watched and it was so refreshing to listen to knowledgeable, non biased commentary. I've started to like Katie Boulter as a result ( can't abide Raducanu). Listening/ watching the WSL game v Chavs last night the bias towards them was off the scale.

Does anyone, anywhere in an English speaking commentary team give City any credit for achievements and an unbiased opinion?

The headline in the ToryGraph this morning mention the word 'sink'. I didn't read the report but I expect there were references to the Scharnhorst, the Gneisnau, the Tirpitz 'n the Bismarck. Normally we wouldn't get a report on the women but as we lost . . . . . . . .!

Tom English, and he's Scottish? My ERO has suggested that Scottish footy reporters are the ones with the slimmest grip on reality.

Pity we haven’t got AI bots to do the commentary be a lot more interesting or just the noise of the fans would do me.

Tom English is Irish, he just writes about Scottish football
