David Speedie comments CWR (5 Viewers)

Think you underestimate women with these comments.
Listen to Hartley-Brewer in the mornings if you think women aren’t allowed to be controversial in the media.

Big difference between the public opinion on women general/political commentary and football. I don't know anyone (thankfully) who think women shouldn't be on TV / in politics etc. But there are an alarming amount, Speedie evidentially being one, who think they have no place in discussing football. This ranges from the obvious (Speedie) to the subtle.

Which you did not

He's right though...

ok he’s right that’s me told

Ah so you're one of those that resorts to 'witty' replies when you don't agree with someone? Cool.

no some valid points have been made that I’ve taken on board

Sorry, wrong person!

I was at an event at The Jag club a couple of years ago and some of Speedies language and description of an ex player he had an altercation with was awful. He went down in my estimation after that

called out Someone shut the thread

What are you actually grumbling about mate?

Can you write in actual sentences, because it's really hard to understand what you're on about.

You might have a point, but it's rather lost in your incoherence I'm afraid to say.

Save the emojis for the eight year olds, and make your point - if you've got one.

I was at that too. He didn’t come across as a very nice bloke, in contrast to Pickering and Houchen who were both there and who seemed really decent people.

What's everyone's opinion on female chefs?

He's probably bitter that he missed out on the big money gravy train that the premiership is these days

Kind of a pity, I wonder if it's a drinking/bravado thing.

I'm sure I've heard him on the radio before and he's come across quite well (in a "professional northerner" sort of way).

Ho hum, he's at least been man enough to apologise, which he deserves some credit for...

Steak for the gentleman, salad for the lady: How foods came to be gendered

Food stereotypes originated in 1870s America, when more women joined the workforce. In the 21st century, they still persist in subtle ways.

Can't entirely blame him, at his peak he was some player. Niggly, but skilful, and certainly good at his job. He'd be worth a few bob in today's game.

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

What about female comedians ?
They're just not funny are they

Well my wife cooks better than me, that's for sure.

Edit :- they're fine as long as they stick to this aren't they?

Well like male ones it's all subjective as to what your personal tastes are.
I mean Katherine Ryan I find extremely funny, yet I imagine her beliefs and life style choices would likely turn off a percentage of a male audience.

Half baked m8

My missus had the audacity to ask for a new watch for her birthday… when there’s a perfectly good clock on the oven ffs

Which brings to mind a great retort from Jo Brand...

"The quickest way to a man's heart is straight through his chest with a carving knife."

Of which she can see perfectly well from the sink and dishwasher too

Wow, if man said that about a woman. Not funny.

Yeah i'd use a wooden chopping board, one bonk to the head, game over.

Which is quite funny tbf. Ironic as I really don't like her. Only series I've not watched of Taskmaster is the one with her in. Just don't find her funny at all.

For balance, I really don't like Ed Byrne!

Don't you mean cooks?

 

[TomRad85]

I like Alex Scott, I don't like the Brummie girl but it's her voice that grinds in the same way Michael Owens does.

Getting out of hand tbh. Alex Scott really does get everywhere.

Yep-when he said what he said about Graham Souness I think most people in the room lost a bit of respect for him.

I wasn’t grumbling about anything

thank you for taking the intellectual high ground

Her and David Baddiel were surprisingly good in that series, tbf.

 

[mmttww]

Bloke sounded drunk. No mention of almost all male pundits being clueless idiots without a single original thought between them. Total d*ckhead.

The whole interview was bizarre. Going on about clearing his name in court because of a drugs scandal

I might give it a go once this current series has finished in that case.

I have seen both live and thought Jo Brand was very funny and Ed Byrne not very funny at all.

The Jo Brand gig though was many, many moons ago. The 0203 Comedy Club in Coventry.

You know, showing.my age here, but I think it was well over 30 years ago.
