Just realised it's on itv, so won't be Pearce but another crap commentator.

Apparently we are in the top 3% of Spotify listeners listening to 71,003 minutes of music so far in 2022. We listened to 81 different genres and our most listened to track was Fuccboi by Lausse the Cat… We listened to 1633 artists.

Pesky kids.

No.

Agreed. Second only to Gary Neville for me.

Yep, on football. GN is becoming irritating when wandering into other topics etc particularly politics. Has the right to an opinion like anyone else but turn down the volume and stop the lecturing. GN has improved punditry in general I think.

this absolute fruitcake

Although he's a bit slow on the "Christmas is being banned" hysteria, should be playing that card by at latest mid-November.

Roy Keane. Someone that clearly is minted, but looks like you'd find him in a cardboard box under a bridge.

He's a f*cking idiot.

Pubs turfing out a full house at 10pm, who will no doubt soon be moaning about energy costs/inflation/brexit and whacking up their prices or shutting down

I'm guessing here, was it the Woodman?

That used to be irksome post match at Palace. Two pints and you'd have to glug the second.

I guess there were strict council imposed drinking times, and the staff were only paid for a set period of time.

Odd way to treat a captive set of clients you only get to see twice a month.

I'm genuinely happy that the womens game is doing so well and getting a lot more exposure but do we now really need to have a woman 'expert' in every studio explaining the game to us and the likes of Shearer, Lineker, Neville etc?

Starting to get on my tits.

Yeah, what would a woman who has played club and international football to the highest level know, eh? Why isn't she in the kitchen ffs?

It was The Pembroke in Coulsdon, though funnily enough I was thinking the same must have happened at The Woodman when I came back past it and all the lights were off!

Trumpets and bands at sports stadium especially at the cricket ,

I wasn't aware women's football had a highest level, from what little i have seen its about non league standard. I have nothing against women playing football, i just dont want it imposed on me, all the time.
Men are suitable to commentate and do analysis on mens games and women are suitable for womens games.

I’d take gender out the equation and ask how much does being a good player in general really matter to someone’s ability to analyse football? I’d rather listen to a journalist like say Ralph Honigstein than any of the pundits Sick Bucket named.

There’s a place for “what would you have done in that situation Alan” which means a good former player should always be on the panel, but I think the need for everyone to have been one is daft.

On the subject of women’s football though, I think Emma Hayes and Alex Scott are more insightful than the vast majority of men.

I'd listen to Alex Scott or Emma Hayes over Alan Shearer any day of the week

National anthems longer than the 37 seconds of God Save The Quing.
We don't need no stinking introduction or middle 8 or key changes.
Just get on with it.

Nope didn't say that at all, I just don't know what the point of her being there was really, well I do the point was purely based on political correctness, I find that a bit annoying.
