She openly stated on Twitter she’s from Yorkshire, supports Leeds and is biased towards those Yorkshire clubs and likes to see them doing well. In that case, it’s no wonder she comes across as bitter because all but one of the Yorkie clubs (do HKR class themselves as Yorkshire? Humberside?) have been pretty shambolic recently!
I can't agree with this NK. I know what you're saying and honesty is usually an admirable trait but, frankly, we (as fans and viewers) are not tuning in to watch her so her preferences and biases are of no consequence. She's there simply to do a job in assessing the teams and players and, as such, should do exactly that in an uncoloured and unbiased way. I don't care what her personal preferences are. In fact, I have no interest in her whatsoever beyond the fact that she's commenting on the rugby. If she can't do that one simple thing in an evenhanded way then she isn't doing her job and should be replaced by someone who can.
