[QUOTE="Prestwick, post: 96497"] Actually, I knew who I forgot to mention: [b]*Female sports presenters who get put in because they're female and not because they know anything about the sport[/b]: Now, I'm all for anyone to present a sports program, as long as they know what they're talking about. If they're just there, reading off of a clipboard because they know naff all about what they're trying to cover in the broadcast and the only reason why they're there is to satisfy the equality requirements laid down by the producer then that is by definition a waste of cash. The BBC keep trying it on with the rugby coverage, occassionally trying to shoe in some female presenter or women at the touch line, neither of them have a clue about Rugby by the looks of it (or at best have a knowledge on par with that of John Inverdale) in some desperate attempt to make BBC Sport Rugby coverage as dumbed down and un informative pile of gumf possible.
