what a helmet

the only interesting part of that was learning that she is the voice of sainsburys self scan system (i doubt even that is correct)

other than that a load of twaddle! lose clare balding from most sports she presents including ours, you will lose plenty of viewers


after receiving a tweet from clare herself, she confirmed she isnt the voice of self scan, lazy journo strikes again

Jealousy is a terrible thing. He aspires to reach the heights that Clare is already at. As mentioned earlier he is a helmet.

I think the sainsburys thing was supposed to be a little witty joke by Kelner, but since it sounds sod all like Clare Balding and is a really really sh|t joke, I'm not entirely sure.

The Guardian is just a negative rag for left leaning imbeciles. Rather like the Daily Mail and Express are depressing rags, albeit in their cases aimed at the intellectually challenged women of middle England.

It's useful when writing pieces like that, to have a point.

I don't think he ever insinuated Balding was the voice at the checkout, as she isn't mentioned for another 6 or so paragraphs!

Rugby League, an "alien sport" so sayeth Mr Kelner....eebygum, the crap we have to put up with

Kelner regularly talks up RL in this column and in his appearances on Fighting Talk. Maybe people should read things properly before yet another knee jerk reaction.

This!

Having read it, I can't see what all the fuss on here is about, (1st paragraph aside), says basically she's a great presenter, researches things well and has worked hard to get where she is.

I think he's spot on.
There's no doubting her knowledge or desire for the sport, I just wish she'd relax a bit.
You could imagine having a conversation with her, and leaving to wonder what you'd done to annoy her.

Isn't he a Swinton lad?
