So who would??

In all fairness think her commentary is very good at the Euros.

Find her ‘geezer’ voice so annoying, dreary comments and looks like a bulldog chewing a wasp.

It’s a no from me.

Sounds like some sort of cockney robot

This forum summed up in one post

She may be a knowledgable coach but has no one explained that less is more when there are live pictures?

She obviously is an intelligent coach who knows all the big words in coaching lingo.

But it's too overbearing for me.

30 words over every bit of play is too much. The game moves on too quick for her.

Talk less and try and simplify the game for us, not make it more complicated. We can see what's going on. We just need the professional co commentator to explain why footballers do what they do and why teams play the way they do.

She's not alone in doing it to be fair.

Who would...have her as manager?

Yes, highly qualified and isn't she one of top coach's in the woman's game?

Terrible subject. But given your username I’m not surprised

I'll pass on this one!

Oh come on some of yous are just too fussy.
Loosen up and live a little

Now that Shaggy has come back from her gap year...

I just mute the sound when she is commentating, find her voice and the terms she uses really irritating. Most of the time she is just stating the bleeding obvious

please just remove this misogynistic nonsense

Plenty of Bristol Rovers on the beach today.

indeed

Shearer and his Southgate sycophants are equally annoying in their praise of Gareth and his team of "top" coaches

The amount of stuff we can't discuss on here nowadays yet this is accepted. Disgusting hypocrisy.

I’m surprised stalbansclaret has “liked” this blatantly sexist comment. I can only assume he clicked the button by mistake.
Otherwise shame on you stalbansclaret.

Sexism and misogyny is cool on here. If you banned that you may as well shut down the site, it's the last bastion of the insecure modern man.

In the 80s, you'd have got the same 'chill out', 'it's only a laugh' reaction to racism, so by 2051 maybe it'll get treated the same way. Or maybe not.

The ideal world of NottsClaret... The 'British Empire' we finally deserve- England run as a corrupt colonial country with a minority New Elite population ruling an oppressed indigenous underclass and ruled by matriarchs expert in emasculating rage.

We're certainly not encouraged to have sensible conversations around important (but sometimes uncomfortable) issues. If this gets pulled now it would be for that very reason rather than the fact a professional sportsperson was objectified.

So the fact that Emma Hayes is a woman means she is not allowed to be criticised? OK>

There's been a concerted campaign against the object for the past 60 years.

Look at current car design... Get a lump of indeterminate matter, photograph it through a Waterford cut-glass crystal vase, get a pseudo subjective interpretation of the photo with Google A.I. Neural Networks software and hey presto the Tata Bubble.

And whatever you think of Emma Hayes (whoever she is), 'She got wheels.'

She is a damned sight more knowledgeable and articulate than many (most) of the former players used as pundits!

While her voice is a bit annoying and has far too much to say she is miles better than dull boy Matterface

Who would... listen to her commentary and opinion on other games? As its fascinating listening to someone with her level of knowledge of the game?

Yes I would.

Woah this topic was giving a bit of a compliment with bit of tongue in cheek thrown in, some
People need to relax.

It’s the new cancel culture, someone will always be offended by something someone said. I haven’t watched a single minute of buildup, it’s wokeness irritates me.

It's a miracle some on here ever got married, had a girlfriend or had kids.

She says 'Do you find me sexy darling?
He says 'Well I'm against the objectification of your body. If we must copulate, do you mind if we discuss the fiscal stimulus, or the geo-political situation in Indo China as we do so as to make sure I don't class you as a piece of meat'
She 'If we must darling, do you like my boobs?'
He 'They look like perfectly functioning mammaries for breastfeeding'
She 'I've shaven down below lover boy'
He 'That's very hygienic. May I recommend something for shaving rash'
She 'I want to ride you like a cowboy'
He 'Interesting fact about cowboys. In the 1870's...'

For the record. If you think men are bad. Women are far, far, far worse when it comes to objectifying men. I did six years entertaining in parties (many hen do's) and they really don't need men being offended on their behalf. They are a lot worse.

Not sure why it is sexist to slag off a woman pundit when the likes of Jenas, Hartson and Murphy get abused constantly?

If you are good bad or indifferent, you are in the firing line to be called out for it

First time I've heard her during this game and have to agree with this. Only been half-watching but she does seem to be talking far too much.

People from Burnley can’t moan about anyone else’s accent

Her accent isn’t the problem….as others have said less is more

And one or two of the commentators also.

He never stops mentioning Alba, very incitful knowledge with her informed comment that the game has to be won tonight. You might want to look into why she could not get the England job……….

Shut you’re eyes & you would think it was Glen Hoddle.

I’d agree with that. But I’m watching the game on now and she just doesn’t shut up. Almost as bad as Lee Hendrie.

As Richie Benaud used to say on cricket that the art of good commentary is knowing when to say nothing.

I sometimes think female commentators feel they have to justify their position in the men’s game.
Emma has a very good knowledge of the game and less ego than many male commentators

She is getting rave reviews across Social Media this evening. Prevailing view is she's the best there's been so far

Was thinking it must be his twin sister! Male or female is irrelevant. The voice tone is monotonous and dull, the commentary contribution is pitiful. In a fair world, that person would not commentate again.

Game was all over according to her 10 minutes ago. Another charlatan getting away with talking too much.
