"The BBC football "expert" anyone else find her annoying and her destruction if the English language, can she not say a g at the end of a word. I'll probably get criticised for being anti gay." And a racist. And a misogynist. 
Didn't know she was gay, is she gay?
She gets on my tits too. | |||

"The problem with the pc brigade is that you can't say anything critical without being accused of being some sort of ist ?? she is just annoying " Yes you can. Before you mentioned her sexuality your 'critique' of her was just that she was negative towards the team. Your the one who bought up any kind of 'ism'. Is it annoying because she's telling hard truths? | |||

"Why she gets singled out when theres plenty of poor pundits (if you deem her to be so )speaks volumes. For me she knows her stuff, represented her country. Plenty to be proud of." I assume this is along the lines of the op was suggesting. People have slagged off Roy Keane, Lee Dixon, Jermaine Jenas, Gary Neville in this thread, but to criticise Alex Scott "speaks volumes". | |||

She's a very knowledgeable former football player and what I've seen of her as a pundit, she's very fair and objective. She is gay (she's engaged to a woman) but I've never thought her punditry was in any way misogynistic (as someone else has said). I'm pretty sure being lesbian does not automatically make someone a misogynist  | |||

"The BBC football "expert" anyone else find her annoying and her destruction if the English language, can she not say a g at the end of a word. I'll probably get criticised for being anti gay. Why gay ? shes not gay." Not that it's really important, but she's in a same sex relationship and engaged to a woman: "Scott and former teammate Kelly Smith bought a house and lived together in Hertfordshire. The pair also lived with each other after they both travelled to America together to play for the Boston Breakers. Their relationship only ended when Kelly left having met her wife-to-be DeAnna. Both returned to England to play for Arsenal together in 2012 after the collapse of their American league." | |||

"To me punditry in general is pretty crap. No issue with Alex over any of the rest. There’s an element of we need to be entertaining, say something controversial but not too controversial. I usually watch match of the day or similar on catch up so can fast forward through boring pundits saying obvious cliches. “He’s world class” “should of done better there” “seems to have lost his confidence”" Exactly the same I generally watch it on catch up, especially if Shearer is on. However I quite like Ian Wright | |||

"I'm anti pricks. She dated a bloke, so not gay. As if that was at all relevant." Indeed, her sexuality is totally irrelevant. Having just listened to Rio Ferdinand on BBC punditry, I can say that I'd prefer to have two Alex Scott's in his place | |||

Men are involved in women's football as coaches, managers etc and also as commentators and pundits. Women are involved in men's football in various ways. Football is football. Just like the 100m is still the 100m but they have a men's and a women's competition due to the physiological difference between men and women. Both male and female athletes commentate and comment on both genders. Any gender can make accurate and insightful comments on a sport that can be played by anyone. | |||

What did Shearer win? The Prem with Blackburn in 1995. Two FA Cups with Newcastle and absolutely fuck all with England. Although I do hold him up as an outstanding striker, by the way, because he was. Scott won FA Women's Premier League titles; 1 WSL title; 7 Women's FA Cups; 2 FA Women's Premier League Cups; 3 FA WSL Cups; 1 UEFA Women's Cup and the England team she played in came 3rd in the Women's World Cup. England men lost the 2018 WC third place play off and Shearer's closest to any honours with England I think was Euro '96. | |||

"I don't think anyone needs to have played a sport to present it and I don't think the fact you've played it very well instantly makes you a good pundit or presenter. David Coleman presented motd very well for years brilliant... John motson, Jim rosenthal, Brian Moore all excellent commentators didn't play at any level. Measuring someones cv still doesn't mean that anyone should like their work as a pundit or commentator. If your job is talking it's important people like what you have to say and how you say it... Some people like her some people don't. " Which is fine. But we have posters above suggesting that as a rule, women cannot possibly comment on men's football due to their perception of the standard of the game. Women can comment on men's sport. Men can comment on women's sport. Able bodied people can comment on disability sport. Disabled people can comment on able bodied sport. Sports are sports and as you say, you don't have to have played professionally to comment! | |||

Yes anyone taking the chair and the captain chairs is going to be a tough act to follow , I also heard but not sure if true that they’re introducing a comedian possibly Jack Whitehall as a captain , really can’t see that working , could end up like Would I Lie To You show ? | |||
