Lincoln were great. DTV nailed it on the 'who do you want thread'. Worth taking note of manager Cowley.

BBC trying to keep the FA Cup relevant yet they talk about Liverpool and their chances in the Premier League for five mins.

Costa at Wolves looks a player

Looked a nasty injury to Brightons keeper, could that have an effect on their title push?

Doubt it, that was their 2nd choice keeper, Stockdale is their No.1

I know this is sexist but I just can't stand female commentators. The one doing the Palace v City game is grating on me. No need for it, just the beeb being PC.

Jay-sus.....how annoying is the female commentator on the city Vs palace match

I genuinely didn't notice

I have no problem with female officials, they can't be much worse than their male counterparts, but I just don't like the tone of the voice for commentary.

rishtonclaret · Post by **rishtonclaret** » Sat Jan 28, 2017 11:36 pm

Phew I thought it was just me, so good others are thinking the same - that woman commentator was dreadful on the Palace v City game! Had to mute the sound until it had finished!

The FA Cup has become a poor trophy like the Worthington Cup/Carling Cup or w/e it's called these days.
It's not only the top tier PL teams playing weakened teams even the Championship clubs are at it. Bristol City away at a PL club and they make a **** ton of changes, Liverpool's only chance at a trophy and they play a U21 team.

Sky have some really great female reporters from pitch side. (Bianca Westward as mentioned above is superb)

They need to do a Maggie Thatcher and alter the voice so it's not as strident.

Mind you I think women are far better war reporters than men.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Kate Adie once. Remarkable woman.

Don't like female football pundits/ commentators either. Bianca Westwood =Tony Cottee with T*ts.

Blackrod · Post by **Blackrod** » Sun Jan 29, 2017 8:38 am

I doubt it was a pleasure for Kate Adie.

I have no idea whether it was or not. I was a student at the time and she gave some great answers.

Care to elaborate on your comment?

Edit - Yeah, that's what I thought.

bobinho · Post by **bobinho** » Sun Jan 29, 2017 9:13 am

We only got to see the whole build up for the goal cos gabby gets wet over defour.

Why didn't they show the five seconds or so of the build up during the actual highlights???

She sounds like she's in one of those competitions where you are asked to commentate over a recording of a game

RocketLawnChair · Post by **RocketLawnChair** » Sun Jan 29, 2017 9:46 am

The best bit from the commentary at the Palace City game was after a good save by the City keeper. " Cablierro had to be alive there"

He'd have struggled to bloody save it if he were dead cock.

I was amusing myself given what I perceived to be you being a little thin skinned with regard to the Kate Adie comment. That's the problem with working two dimensionally.

If someone makes an odd comment that I don't understand then I'll likely respond and ask them to elaborate. If you look at my comment, that's all I did. If that's thin-skinned then that's exactly what I am

Ah yes, I saw a feature about her. Claire Hollingworth. She lived to be over 100 which is impressive in itself.
