    As for female officials. I have no problem as long as they have to meet the same fitness standards as the male officials. On a personal level I would like to see those levels increase significantly as the refs seem way off the pace at times.

    As for punditry. I couldn't care less about colour or sex of anyone. They need to have good knowledge and a personality. The reason Gary Neville is so good on sky is that he has played at the highest level, coached in a world Cup and managed in Spain. He has great depth of knowledge but can also laugh at his own failings and successes and comes across as a guy who cares about the game. His brother has the same kind of experience but lacks something personality wise.

    Its not easy finding the right people but the last thing I want is a bland personality filling the air with cliché's we've all heard before. I want to hear somebody's opinion. I don't even mind Roy Keane. He has his opinion and throws it out there without fear of upsetting anyone. That's what I want from a commentary regardless of race or sex. Sounness is another who is very vocal.

    Alex Scott, Carney, Sutton, Shearer, Lineker, Micah Richards, Jamie Redknapp are fence sitting cliché spouting waste of times.

    Hate to say it but give me Gary Neville, Graeme Sounness, Paul Merson and Roy Keane over the rest. At least they call it how they see it whether they are right or wrong.

    Glen Hoddle could nay should have been the manager that took England's golden generation to World Cup & Euros glory. He just had to open his mouth and spout his bat **** crazy ideas.

    Be some great but heavy debate on here today so gonna change tack a little.

    My boy just put Marching on together on Spotify. When it finished it carried on to recordings of Leeds crowd chants (the suitable ones). I think for the first time since this pandemic started it really hit me how much I have missed going to games.

    What has made you guys miss going?

    Good afternoon everyone
    Talking of pundits one of the best imo Andy Gray, always on the pre-match talk on sky I think it was, he would open his mouth and I don’t know why, my heart would race, my excitement would build, (before anyone smirks and has a smart comment I’m not gay) and all this even before a ball was kicked, guess some people just have a naturally great charisma and make great pundits, whatever happened to him doe’s he still work as a pundit ?, oh and totally agree with Doc above, about Alan Hanson (great pundit), why did he ever give up MOTD ?

    As for co-commentators who are knowledgeable and inject some humour I quite like Andy Hinchcliffe and Ally McCoist.

    Meeting up with the guys and gals on here. Usually ends up a full day out and either a hotel or taxi ride back to wakefield. First time everyone is able to attend i am going even if i have no ticket. Feeling like needing to celebrate our promotion and feel cheated.

    I can't remember the last time I bothered listening to what the pundits have to say, they all talk bollocks(man and woman) and I'm not listening to them, so they can tick their PC boxes and have women, trans and every ethnicity under the sun on the panel picking up a obscene amount of money as what they say has no relevance to me.
    Half time is the time to go for a piss and get a drink and some food ready for the second half, full time switch over.

    Just read there that Klich played with a painful hip injury against Arse. Hats off to him. That's an old style footballer.

    These days most footballers are 'injured' if they sneeze twice in the same day.

    I suppose there’s only so many times you can listen to a pundit say ‘millwall are ****’ before it becomes a bit repetitive <ok>
