A Load of Squit 5,116 Posted September 17, 2020 She's great, I hope she get loads more presenting jobs. Extremely well qualified, she'll be a credit to any organisation that's smart enough to employ her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Herman 9,710 Posted September 17, 2020 She's cool. Knows what she is talking about, qualified and with a good personality. I still won't watch QOS though as I was bored of that decades ago. 😀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YellaYellowYella 51 Posted September 17, 2020 Yes, I like her. Surprised BBC pays Gary Linekar what they do for MotD when they have people like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted September 17, 2020 Lineker tweeted he had taken a pay cut of £400K (which they had passed on to Zoe Ball, so no saving at the Beeb) and he hoped the haters were happy. Humility not one of his vices then. Alex Scott seems a natural and has no history in the men's game so should be a breath of fresh air as she has got one of the SKY jobs. And she matches the BBC new diversity of being a black woman. Agree with Herman about QOS. 20 years of Tufnell and Dawson cracking the same lines is better forgotten.

Indy 3,283 Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Absolutely, credit to someone who deserves the job because she’s good at it, rather than positive discrimination, there are some ex female pros who commentate in the background and are pretty rubbish, annoying most the time, that ex pro from Liverpool to point at one. That said there are a lot of male ex pros too who shouldn’t be given a microphone! Kelly Dalgliesh, Kirsty Gallagher and my favourite Bianca Westwood. Some really good presenters and pundits.

Bosch_10 1 Posted May 15, 2021 Not sure what the issue is Herman. Good presenter. Well deserved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,710 Posted May 15, 2021 Don't worry, just me being daft. I like her, think she is a good pundit and deserves her spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 5,923 Posted May 16, 2021 As ever, something like this will trigger the troglodytes who maintain it's nothing to do with merit. Disagree, as others have said here - she's pretty good as a pundit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
