Generic small time football blather thread FOREVER

Yes but they're catching up and the real focus will be on increasing corporate areas rather than increasing the number of ordinary punters.

I'm not worried about an extra 8,000 reeking brummie arses on seats.

Has Joey Barton damaged her career? Or is she just a bad pundit? I guess the latter never entered her head.

 

To have a go at Ian Wright so being a pundit on women’s football says it all. She’s more concerned with him eating into her airtime than looking at what having a prominent pundit such as Wright does to boost the women’s game.

He’s been a huge advocate for women’s football and, let’s be honest, there are a lot more men into football than women so it’s only helped raise the profile of the women’s game 

[Chaser 1431]

Its a dumb comment by Aluko given Wrightys involvement is probably encouraging some interest in the women's game from fans of the men's game. She is a shit pundit but is hiding behind other arguments. People should get roles based on merit. The fact that she complains about people not liking women being involved in the men's game and then complaining about men being involved in the women's game speaks volumes about the type of character she is. 

 

The BBC seem to have got it right on the MOTD anchors as there's not been uproar about replacing Lineker. All 3 of them are well respected broadcasters and there's been nothing I've seen mentioned regarding gender from the usual dregs of society..

Going by their inability to play the correct competition anthem over their PA system I fully expect all 8,000 seats to be installed facing the car park.

well, the villa park upgrade is scheduled for 2027. the rumour mill suggests our new ground could be a couple of years after that. so yeah, you could be right

Aluko hasn’t been jettisoned by broadcasters for any other reason out there than that she,rightly or wrongly, takes people to court . No one wants to turn up for graft thinking that could happen. Football broadcasting strikes me as a club or maybe 3/4 clubs; if you’re in you’re in, and if you’re possibly taking your colleague to court you’re very likely out

Aye but they might consider on this occasion that getting rid of Lineker is the lesser of two evils

Purely in response to Birmingham City’s plans to build a 60,000 seater, I’d imagine. The idea of which is hilarious in its own right
