She shouldn't be criticised just because she is female. Likewise she shouldn't be defended just because she is female.

She did an appalling job, clearly didn't bother spending enough time researching even basic things like how to pronounce the opponents team name, let alone player names. Hopefully she was just volunteering and isn't actually hired to commentate on future club games until she's had some practice and has improved considerably.

Because those blokes get paid an awful lot of money to do it, and have been doing it for donkeys years.

This is the first time this young lady has done it, why not show a bit of support for her? Not one post saying fair play to her for having a go.


Jason Cundy apologised after criticising a female commentator during the World Cup.
Said she was to high pitched and it spoilt the game for him.
As regards this young lady she wasn't very good but neither was the stream so it didn't really matter.

But fair play to her for having a go you mean?

I want a mate like Flashberryjacks, who wears a Barnsley jersey with "Swans are my second team" on the back.

During the second game the first half had no comments due to technical faults. She did OK for the second half.
Much less irritating than some of thes co- commentators.

Yes Phil, you said. She doesn't pronounce a word as it should be.

She certainly isn't the first, or the most experienced commentator to have done it, and won't be the last either.

Well worth a thread dedicated to her on here, by all the lads.


Mate I for one couldnt give a shite if she pronounced Genoa any which way.
But when she describes a penalty as being played down the middle, when it was clearly slotted into the corner as just one example. She just isnt up to it. Not yet anyway. Another was during the whole penalty shoot out, I honesty had no idea who was actually leading /what the score was (due to freezing issues and missing naughtons and Amats attempts). Simply there's no nice way to put it. She was terrible. Give her credit for trying but thats it.
Sorry if it offends any from the pc brigade,(Im actually not really) but she needs to go home and practice in her bedroom for a couple more years yet.

Yes kind of.
But I hope she never gets a meaningful game unless she improves drastically.
But you could say the same about a couple of our players.

Lot of white knights rushing to her defence itt. She's hard to listen to when she does 5 minutes here and there in some of the u23s games, this was torture!

German commentary for the second game was a lot nicer.

Even though the German commentator kept pronouncing the majority of our players names wrong?

Aye, that's about the size of it.

This thread wouldn’t exist if it had been you commentating though. Cos you is a bloke see.


If the bloke was as bad as her it would, only every one would be joining in with the ribbing. Its actually sexist that people are defending her because shes a woman. It was terrible commentary and anyone saying anything different Is having a laugh.

Its just a ride.

Some German women do have incredibly deep voices.

The teams not much better.
In fact, some are considerably worse

All in all, this is going to be a long season.
Won't be surprised if the Yanks come out and state that
"as it feels like a 150 game season, Swansea Swans fans really get a lot of bang for their buck."

If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious.

She was an ex Olympic shot putter from Leipzig so hard to tell.

I can't believe people getting bent out of shape about this. It was her first attempt as per her tweet


and it's not as if she was working for Sky Sports. So, no "bearing with me" on here.

FWIW, I found her voice a lot more tolerable than the screeching female commentator on the BBC World Cup. And whether it's right or wrong, I'm adopting her pronunciation of Samp-do-ri-a from now on. It sounds more Italian than Samp-dor-ia.
