Lineker sits there with his monotone voice, with the equally boring and lifeless Shearer! After watching two minutes of prima donna football, they then spend twenty minutes of so called 'analysis' on the awful match! I read somewhere that the weekly average amount of football shown on MOTD is 21 mins. So 30% or so of the prog is the various match highlights, and the rest is us being bombarded by 'expert' analysis from ex-players, looking to keep their gravy train running. It's not as if the BBC can claim to lose time to adverts. I'm sure my dad is not alone in taping the prog, and then just fast forwarding between each set of highlights, to avoid the 'boring crap', as he puts it. I partly blame the yanks for this because Sky copied the American sportscasting model with summarisers and the like. That said I know the Americans use a lot of presenters because of the stop start nature of their sports and the need to fill in the time between plays. Sky didn't need to copy this but for the fact they needed to make 90 minute football match last all bloody afternoon to keep the viewers tuned in. As a consequence terrestrial TV followed suit. Oh for the days when you got 30 minutes highlights of one game and a five minute summing up from Brian Moore in the ITV studio. As to the length of highlights on match of the day I would add this; from next year Sky have exclusive rights to Formula One in this country with Channel 4 showing a highlights package. I know for a fact that the length of the highlights and the times they are shown on Channel 4 will be dictated by Sky. Now it could be that Sky also dictate how much highlights the BBC can show.

I am absolutely mortified. I shall not be able to learn anything about, or see many photos of, Baby Archie because the ginger prince and Mrs Simpson Mark 2 intend to attempt to keep the child from the public view and bring him up as a "private citizen". In truth, Archie Harrison sounds more like a 1940s American boxer than a member of the most over-privileged family on earth.
This weird couple have got some nerve to say that after allegedly spending £3 million of taxpayers' money on the refurbishment of their home.

I think the last modicum of respect I had for any member of the 'firm' was for the Queen Mum! Her WarTime exploits and all that. The rest of them...pah The fire at Windsor, refurbishing Buck House and now this new one, all of that could have been paid by ER and she wouldn't have noticed the money had gone she's that rich! Rumour has it that the awful Kate is 'preggers' again! More free loading kids, and just to take the spotlight off the other one! The only one with even an ounce of dash is Harry (well, he used to have)...and he's not even got a drop of Royal Blood in him!

The Queen was involved in uniform in a working capacity during World War II. She is a shining example of Statesmanship in a World that has sadly lost it's way. They all work hard on behalf of our country (even though many in the country don't deserve it) and losing the monarchy would be a bigger disaster than leaving the EU. It is just what many deserve, though I do not want to be part of the mess you have blindly created!

It is just what many deserve, though I do not want to be part of the mess you have blindly created! So let me just get this straight! You think that Airmiles Andy, that wife of his and their children who spend 99% of their time abroad on some holiday paid for by the long suffering people of this country are working hard on behalf of this country? You think that the awful Kate (who wasn't seen from one year till next until the other one came along) and her pompous prick of a husband (who is never seen without a glass of something in his hand) who looks with total contempt at everyone and everything, are working hard on behalf of this country? You think... I doubt there is a more dysfunctional family in this country! It's all down to inter-breeding of course! You can still see much the same thing in the White South Africans! To say that I have caused (blindly) the mess the country is in is a tad harsh I deem! Yes, I'll admit that in my yoof there was a lot of death and destruction every where I went, but now (with the help of a lot of 💊) I'm Mr nice guy!

So, the PC madness continues! A qualified Doctor (one of the three remaining in the country I believe) who had served more than twenty years in A&E and the NHS has been fired! Why has he been fired I hear you ask...he's been fired, because in a hypothetical scenario, he was asked if he would call a six foot man with a beard 'she' if that was what the man/thing wanted! His reply to the question was 'no'...so he was fired! Since then, he has been called a 'Bigot'...I know all about that! So here's another hypothetical scenario...if a six foot man with a beard came up to me and asked me to call him/it 'she', I would grab him by his sorry beard...grab him by his sorry arse...grab him by his sorry dick...and grab him by his sorry balls! Of course that would have to be on one of my Transgender Octopus days! Then I would proceed to stuff his sorry carcass into the nearest trash bin! I wonder what that makes me...answers on a postcard please to...Mr Register in the Yorkshire Dales!

I wonder what that makes me. Guilty of indecent assault and on the Sex Offenders ‘Register’. Very good answer Rob. It would indeed make me be found guilty of all those things! Though of course years ago (before the word Transgender existed) it would only have resulted in a clip round the ear from the Old Bill, and that would have been it! Who knows where the name Old Bill comes from...

Shocking behaviour from this so called 'Doctor', displaying outdated concepts regarding the new realities of 'male' and 'female'. Does this bigoted old fool not realise it's 2019 ? Can he not look past the end of his own nose ? I ask you, just what possible problem could he have with welcoming a lady into his surgery and telling her 'Well Ma'am, I've just received the results of your recent testicular cancer test'Why can't he look at the wider picture....and it's immediately obvious he's not a football fan. Our girls just home from the World Cup without even a bronze third place medal to show for their efforts. How they could have done with a muscular six footer leading the line. That beard would have struck fear into the United States women's central defence, and their Captain Rappahoe. But the sad part is that this despicable discrimination is not being stamped out, and continues to cause emotional distress to numerous ladies. It's not just 'hypothetical' women who suffer, but ladies such as Joni, doing nothing more than minding her own business and heading to the female changing rooms to try on a bra and knickers set. Thankfully we have more enlightened organisations in our local part of the world, and if we want to speed up the arrival of that glorious day when transgender toilets are the only option at Plainmoor, then we know which group of 'progressives' we need as club owners. A group who have already campaigned for free tampons to be available at our football grounds, and who, I'm sure, would have no intention of insisting Joni reveal what was inside her Y fronts before she could enjoy equal female rights. Stamp out discrimination. Trust in the future.
