Following Scott's retirement in 2017, she turned her focus full-time to television broadcasting, co-presenting on Match of the Day Kickabout.[21] She became well known to a wider audience when she covered the 2018 FIFA World Cup, becoming the first female football pundit at a World Cup for the BBC.[22] After the tournament, she continued to provide insight on the Premier League, and in August 2018 became the first female pundit on Sky Sports, joining the Super Sunday team.[23] She covered the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup for the BBC.[22] In August 2019, Scott was announced as the new co-host of Sky Sports' Goals on Sunday alongside Chris Kamara.[24]Didn’t know it was still going. Is Alex Scott the one who’s done loads of punditry recently? If so she must have impressed.

Her contract was probably up, just like the fatheads that are no longer on soccer Saturday.Sue was good on it is she being forced out or just retiring?
Scott’s a good pundit but she’s got big shoes to fill
She's no Steve McmanamanAlex Scott is a dreadful host/pundit, she's got the best agent in the game.
They seem to coach all their captains to do this faux tension “ohhh ohhh ohhh no it’s arrrrrrhhhh LINFORD CHRISTIE!! Arrgghhhhgh” thing on every single question as if it’s the final round decider of the final episode of the series.People still watch Question of Sport? It’s the TV show equivalent of flare trousers to me.
Is Matt and Tuffers being replaced too?Absolute joke and a disgrace.
Why the feck is this in the football forum and not Entertainment?
Regarding the actual news, I think it's great that it winds people up so much. fecking idiots. Alex is great and will do a fantastic job. Sue was also great (as were Matt and Phil) but time moves on, think this was the longest it had gone without replacing host/captains?
It's tweets like that and instant hatred for people they don't know that make me want to delete all social media.and triggers lots of racists at the same time. State of the UK right now
Not even Stevie McwomanawomanShe's no Steve Mcmanaman
just didn't have her contract renewed. She was in the gig for 20+ years!Why was Sue Barker sacked if I may ask?
Maybe it will get better. It’s been garbage for years, when it stopped being a sports quiz and started having Dawson and Tufnell playing charades for the other team members. You watch the show to answer sports questions, there’s no viewer participation in watching the guys goof off like idiots. I know that was just one round, but it really got dumbed down.People still watch Question of Sport? It’s the TV show equivalent of flare trousers to me.
Caught with class A drugsWhy was Sue Barker sacked if I may ask?
Yeah that pantomime feel makes me doubt it’s serious quiz show legitness. I’ve also long suspected that the guests are fed the answers to their questions to avoid looking bad on TV... so it’s basically just a publicity stunt for athletes to raise their profile.They seem to coach all their captains to do this faux tension “ohhh ohhh ohhh no it’s arrrrrrhhhh LINFORD CHRISTIE!! Arrgghhhhgh” thing on every single question as if it’s the final round decider of the final episode of the series.
Has she hosted anything before? Did Sue Barker host tennis before QoS? It's such a shit quiz show anyway.
It had become very dated as a format, and in my opinion, that had as much to do with Barker as a host as anything else. It could become very popular again if they updated it into a more digitally interactive format. But that needs a fresh new face too.Has she hosted anything before?

That's the UK for you. Always been this way. Not sure what it is like in other European nations.Probably sounding a bit ignorant here but why must everything become race-related? Just see it as a replacement. We’re all equal.
