There was nothing wrong with Oatley's commentary though, and you only have to look at some of the comments to see the criticism was driven by sexism. The commentator we had last night was just shit, it had nothing to do with her being female.

I listened to the whole game on spurs site and her commentary was awful, Bradley Allen didn't help either, they talked over eachother so often, crossing over his analysis with when the action started again so didn't even do the basic signals for one to stop and other to start
Was just thankful I could listen to the game but wasn't great
Oh, I do understand that. But I'd bet that we'd be viewed in the same way if there was a more public criticism of last night's commentary.
I agree that Oatley was fine.
Highlights are up on the OS for all you whiney bitches x

In the 90's every team and every goal kick. Loved it but did wear thin after a few years.
Birmingham City fans with their version the other week in FA Cup. Fair play for goalkeepers reaction on final whistle.
Like more or less any post that references one of my fave books, 1984, And to think we won a European trophy that year. George missed that beauty out of his book

Nice mention for 1882.......... (re Soldado)
Once they'd recovered from the shock, the Spurs fans, aided by the excellent 1882 movement, began singing: 'Viva Soldado, oooh-oh; he came from sunny Spain; to play with Harry Kane.

's funny.... when they're not busy hating us, The Daily Fail annoyingly seem to quite like us sometimes!
Well it was written by a spurs blogger, so you'd hope he'd like us!
That'll be why then... scrolled down too quick, see!

I'm looking at our fixtures, i'm looking for a ride
I'm looking on to glory, I'm looking at our side
I'm looking for the Tottenham that I knew in '65
We're gonna win in Warsaw
.....like 1984
Great spot on today's Football Focus.
