"There was even a moment today where I'm on the headset and we're not using it. I'm listening to commentary and the goal goes in and I can't do anything,"
"We have to refine the processes, the timings of it. I was doing an in-game and I ended up not having to do it because I had it on for a minute and I'm listening to Browny [Rachel Brown-Finnis] commentate on the corner and the goal and I'm like I can't communicate to my team."
"They're going to look at the strategy behind that and how that works better, which I understand, and I appreciate and accept. But it just didn't work. I want to engage fans as much as possible but we need to look at realistically how it works,"
Manchester City defeated Manchester United 3-0 at the Etihad, dominating the first half and moving four points clear of Chelsea atop the WSL table. Marc Skinner criticized the league's new mid-game interview process after a scheduled in-game interview prevented him from communicating while United conceded the opening goal by Rebecca Knaak. Skinner said the headset picked up commentary and left him unable to instruct his players, and he called for refinements to timings and procedures. Skinner expressed support for initiatives that bring fans closer to matches but warned that practical execution must not impede team management.
