On Saturday for the Man City game. Political correctness gone mad! Good job I watch Football First on Sky instead. |

The Gabby/Terry relationship disproves all theory of genetics. |

Nope it's not Gabby. Some other bird, and she does not warrant pic posting. |

A woman is to commentate on BBC TV's flagship football programme Match of the Day for the first time in its 43-year history.
Jacqui Oatley, 32, will cover Saturday's Premiership game between Fulham and Blackburn.
She played at an amateur level but had to give up after a serious knee injury.
Oatley, from London, and originally from Codsall, Staffordshire, spent four years working in intellectual property before changing careers.
She eventually secured a job on BBC national radio with Five Live.
Oatley, whose previous work includes reporting for BBC Radio Leeds and BBC WM in the West Midlands, did a postgraduate course before going into broadcasting.

Only one I'd have any faith in at all might be Eleanor Oldroyd. However, it's all crazy anyway - is she doing live link from the kitchen? |

Why can't women find their own sport or at least wait another hundred years until womens football is remotely popular? Worlds gone fucking mad |

I'm hoping it's an elaborate joke and motty is going to be in his wool coat, but with a wig on and suspenders underneath; perhaps some lipstick. Now you're talking! |

Hah Mick, very true - my bad. So, did anyone watch MotD? What was she like? I was in a gutter last night; didn't get a chance to watch. |

She was only given about 5 mins but I didn't like it. When any goalmouth action happened she went really high pitched but not in a good Motty way. When Fulham scored I think only dogs could hear her. |

She reminded me of a 9 year old boy that has won some crappy competition on Blue Peter. |

Haha you're right Adonis. Or someone that Jim fixed it for. One letter is only the start of it, one letter and now you're a part of it.... |
