Alex Scott proud of accent amid criticism from Lord Jones

Lord Jones criticised Londoner Alex Scott for "her very noticeable inability to pronounce her 'g's".

So there you have it. Alex Scott can't talk 'proper' because of her working class roots. Apparently, it's all about social class.

And yet millions of working class Brits across the country manage to not sound like infants like football pundits seem to.

It’s nowt to do with, sorry, wivv, social class… it’s to do with not developing language after being an infant through, sorry, ffrough, laziness.

There’s nothing wrong with colloquialisms and local accents, but not being able to say words without sounding like an infant is something I really dislike about too many people in this country, especially football pundits.
 
Stuart Pearce the other day talking about tomorrow nights line up:

“I don’t see how Saka doesn’t start in this game, he’s done nothing wrong so far, he didn’t play well in the second game against the USA though”!
 
George Graham once said he’d never sign a player who couldn’t speak English. He signed Martin Keown.
 
If only there was a way to switch them off like you used to be able to. Now it is mute to put up with it.

Usually have music on and this is reminding me why. Especially when Keown does that intake of breath thing on the mic.
