Who is this female commentator on BT? Some of the most biased commentary I have ever heard.

Good play and strength from Vydra

Well done Taylor

Great tackle Charlie.

Phew! Close.

superdimitri · Post by **superdimitri** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:02 pm

Taylor in typical Taylor fashion almost gets caught out but makes an excellent last ditch tackle.

They should have scored then.. come on Burnley get a grip.

Women commentator is Lucy Ward - She spent most of her senior career with Leeds United and was also head of education and welfare at the boys academy for Leeds United

Clearly unbiased and a great choice for independent summariser

Awful shot

claretandy · Post by **claretandy** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:05 pm

Dwight needs to go back on the left.

Great effort haha

I’m assuming they thought it would “balance” having Crouch & Rachel B-F in the “studio”

She’s still better than any of the Sky summarisers we normally get!!

First time Scott has blown for them fouling our players.

Probably right! But not sure we need the expertise of any of them, what’s wrong with just plain commentary?

Vydra fouled before their goal

Top Claret · Post by **Top Claret** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:15 pm

Tarkowski at fault backing off

He should have closed him down

Have you thought she might be talking about Leeds for since minute 10 it’s been all Leeds?

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:15 pm

Shocking from Tarkowski again

superdimitri · Post by **superdimitri** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:15 pm

Typical us. Everyone backs off and covers no one makes a tackle. All the time in the world to pick out the corner.

Longsidebogs · Post by **Longsidebogs** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:15 pm

Wow….it’s to be hoped that Pope stays.

Murger · Post by **Murger** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:16 pm

Why do we always give players a free run? Nobody near him.

taio · Post by **taio** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:16 pm

Big hole in the middle of the park/central midfield area for the goal.

Boss Hogg · Post by **Boss Hogg** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:17 pm

Acres of space and no challenges. Look like we’ve lost interest. I know I had with this game before the goal.

ClaretMov · Post by **ClaretMov** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:17 pm

Bad defending backing off poor effort by the keeper = a goal

How? Tarkowski fouled Bamford in the build up and he let it go...

Vintage Claret · Post by **Vintage Claret** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:18 pm

Just before half time again.

Would be interesting to see stats for how often we concede 5 mins either side of half-time

brexit · Post by **brexit** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:18 pm

The sooner we sell Tarks and Dwight the better.
They are both a liability.

He's missed our players getting fouled all game yet the moment a Leeds player falls over it's a free kick.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:19 pm

Bad time to concede right on HT, can't say they don't deserve it though, but we shouldn't be allowing him to run all that distance without making a tackle, even foul him and take the yellow if you need to. Great finish by the lad though.

Burnley Ace · Post by **Burnley Ace** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:19 pm

Was there a slight deflection off Tarks calf that just put a bit of spin on?

I'm not convinced with BPF, Pope is probably just that good he makes every other keeper we have look ordinary.

Vino blanco · Post by **Vino blanco** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:20 pm

Where the f.ckwas our midfield? They ran from inside their own half without a hint of a challenge. Westy and the rest were trotting back yards behind. Against teams like Leeds you need to protect the defence.

I don't see it, been an even nothing game, certainly wouldn't say the referee has played any role really.

Granny WeatherWax · Post by **Granny WeatherWax** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:21 pm

I don’t think the players have done much wrong. Tactically we’ve been awful. McNeil has caused problems centrally, but we’ve kept him on the wing and hoofed it forward time after time when their defenders are coping easily in the air. Brownhill isn’t a winger so there’s zero threat from the right. It’s just so easy for Leeds.

ClaretMov · Post by **ClaretMov** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:21 pm

Poor free kick....just roll it across the box no one there, its a free hit from the edge of the box

Culmclaret · Post by **Culmclaret** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:21 pm

Good finish to be fair. 9 times out of 10 he would not have scored from there!

Yes let's flog our 2 best players, selling both of them will mean we'll soon be playing in the Championship.

Glad to see the overreaction on here is alive and well

Top Claret · Post by **Top Claret** » Sat May 15, 2021 1:22 pm

Summer transfer window a quality midfielder must be our 1st call. Jack Cork is getting long in the tooth and Brownhill doesn't posses enough quality on the ball.
