The Wales goal last night with the national anthem being sung. Perfect timing.
at 14:59 3 Sep 2017

It was incredible, it was almost spiritual.

The commentary went quiet and just as the anthem was finishing that touch of genius.

Beautiful moment.

There he is the man who puts words in other peoples mouths as usual.

You're so predictable, I could almost type up your response.

It's quite funny because I've just responded to another post of yours which completely contradicts your classic jump to conclusion mentality.

She's ok but nothing more, but very much from the professional to the core school of commentating.

I'd sooner here Aggers and Boycott having some banter anyday, but that's just a personal preference.

I'm not against female sports broadcasters, as I've already said. What I'm against is the BBC mentality of we 'HAVE' to have a female mentality. Which is so obvious in anything they produce and as has been pointed out it will become more apparent.

They are obsessed by it and it shows because it's not organic. Sky do it much better and you can tell because bar the dolly birds of sky sports news the quality of presenters on sky sports and sky news is far higher in my opinion.

I'm talking more in terms of presentation not commentating.

I hate listening to female commentators, they sound ridiculous. There's a beautiful presenter on the cricket called Isha, she's fine to present but on commentary it just doesn't work the pitch is all wrong.

And the BBC being the BBC have start putting women on TMS now breaking up the old school tie brigade which was the very reason to listen to it because it was so old fashioned and quintessentially British. Blowers said they actually had more female listeners than men, but the beeb being the beeb had to change it up and the dynamics have changed to a more 'professional' broadcast which is utterly pointless and loses the charm element.

As with their paper equivalent the guardian, the BBC don't believe in equality of opportunity, they believe in equality of outcome and that's where problems are created.

Excellent news, we're running a football club how it should be run.

I do remember in the not to distant past, that we had some pride in the fact we ran things properly and didn't spend more than we brought in.

Some of them are genuinely good e.g. Kelly Cates.

I've watched her on the debate and her line of questions is genuinely insightful with a real 'knowledge' that goes beyond the sheet of paper.

There are others that sound so clearly been put through journalism school and support one of the top 4 you can spot it a mile off and its switch off.

Sky are always infinitely better in their coverage, you always feel they pick on talent not ticking a box.

It's the BBC doing what the BBC does, window dressing.

It's long overdue to be privatised.

Of yes, NO relevance whatsoever. Behave yourself.

Father Ted had many occasions in which it extracting the urine out of culture, religion, sex you name it. I laughed every-time, does that make me or others a racist? Do me a favour.

I'm sorry I find this sort of post utter bilge and it's the same sanctimonious bs that comes from the guardian day after day.

I would consider myself very non racist, I despise racism. I'm very Internationalist in my outlook and have had the pleasure of meeting many different people from all sorts of cultures some of my close family are from an ethnic minority.

If you cannot see the difference in boundaries between good fun between different people and having a joke then you really are a not a Worldly person. You are somebody who would struggle to get on with people from other cultures because you'd be so afraid of offending.

If you can't find humour in likes of Father Ted, then there's no hope for you seriously. What breaks down boundaries is humour and the ability to extract the urine out of oneself.

The people who are offended constantly over nothing always tend to come from very comfortable middle class backgrounds with next to no mixing with people of a different background. They are the sort of people who subconsciously would run a mile if a group of people of colour walked in.

Anybody who has lived a little knows where the line is.

It takes a quick google search, but it's hardly rocket science to assign the fact that people who are more religious tend to give more to charity and tend to give their time to good causes more.

This of course is not the case all round and there are plenty of non religious who do good works. I'm saying as a 'proportion' even if we take Islamic people who get a very bad press. They are by religious edict made to give a proportion of their income to charity and of course they fast for a long period to recognise the suffering of those in horrendous poverty.

My point is the the left loves to project how good it is, while there are thousands of people who do good works up and down the Country and World who just get on with it.

But that's your prejudice coming through, there has been research done on this. Private donation as a proportion of income is very high for people with right leaning views.

Because people don't believe in an almighty State doesn't mean they don't believe in helping others. Conservatives are more Church going, people who are more Church going tend to be more charitable.

These are facts, whether you like it or not.

Absolutely, always this notion that it's all leftism that ever changes anything.

Conservatism is "sceptical" of change, it is not adverse to change. This is not going to be sorted by a few pinkos sharing fb links, this is something that will change organically over time.
