InLambertWeTrust! 0 Posted January 27, 2011 If we carry on like we''ve started on this week it''ll only be a matter of time! The wishy washy liberal left want equality and thats fine but not in football.Football is a MAN''s game. It has been pulling in millions of pounds worth of revenue for such a long time now . Womans football is a distance second when it comes to coverage and there is a good reason for that- mens football is far more intetesting and is why there arent more women watching their female countrrparts.Football as a MALE PLAYING product works. Dont wreck it.Oh and ps i fully agree with Gray getting sacked- disgusting comments! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted January 27, 2011 You agree with Gray''s sacking, yet you say that?and also, you were saying Sky Sports will be worse after Gray''s sacking...There is NOTHING wrong with women officiating the game, you might as well say they can''t watch......Also, why another thread on it mate :P There have already been 2/3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unlike most other workplaces where there is equality, on a mens football pitch ,where only men are allowed to play (by law)how can there be?.....is it any wonder then that sexist attitudes exist??As long as the two are kept apart ,there really shouldn''t ever be a problem.as for you original question.....firstly ,legally it can''t happen, women aren''t lawfully able to play mens football......just as men can''t play womens football. Secondly ,no women will ever be goof enough to play in mens professional football. Infact if you were to take the best womens football team on the planet (which I guess might be Brazil?)....I wonder how far down the mens football pyamid you would need to go until you find a level they could beat........my guess is somewhere around Anglian Combination division 8??

InLambertWeTrust! 0 Posted January 27, 2011 Nothing wrong with women officials- as I''ve said.Women''s football is crap. There I''ve said it. I wish it was better but its not. Men''s attracts a far bigger audience.It''s not sexist to say that men''s footy is better. Its a fact proven by far bigger audience. Are we saying that the people who only go to mens footy are sexist ?Political correctness gorn maaad! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e10_yellow 0 Posted January 27, 2011 Strange statement to make...I don''t think anyone''s arguing that women should be allowed to play in the men''s league. The issue is with the prehistoric assumption of some now-jobless pundits that women are unable to follow the rules of the game simply because of their gender.

Yobocop 1,442 Posted January 27, 2011 WE were having this discussion at work the other day, one of my colleagues plays for England u-19s for women, I said what standard they could beat. SHE thought they could beat an amateur sat or sun men''s club quite easily. IT''S down to fitness and skill for me.Women''s football is a developing sport and I actively encourage participation in football regardless of age, gender, race, religion, disability etc IT can only be a good thing when everyone can play, it means more money to the fa to use on football development in this country.

Nexus_Canary 1,206 Posted January 28, 2011 Sexism aside,I used to play for a teachers team at my old school. Small ''friendly'' league set up between local schools where it was teachers and up to 3 sixth form.We used to rock up with a female player every week and get laughed at.Then they would see her play and the laughing would stop.+ the best bit , no one would ever foul or push her off the ball and she would really use that to her advantage.Top rate player as well, girls can play football !( They just cant ref it ) muahahahahha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThorpeCanary 71 Posted January 28, 2011 Never gonna happen for the same reason these sports separate boys and girls from age 10 (or whatever)As Nexus says, a girl was able to play well in a friendly league when no one fouled her, so its made the game unbalanced, also what would be the reaction when some girl gets her leg broken either by complete accident or one of Kevin Muscats specials.It wont ever happen with sports that are contact or where men have an advantage, though I don''t see why we have separate womans versions for Darts etc? why not amalgamate them.

norfolkbroadslim 225 Posted January 28, 2011 If that were to happen where would it stop? You would have to amalgamate ALL sports. Athletics - women wouldn''t win anything, Tennis - no a women wouldn''t win any ranking event, Golf - the same, Boxing - well you seehow silly this gets! Consider this if you will. Girls can join Scouting - beavers, cubs, scouts, explorers. Can boys join Guides? Guess what, no! Admittedly, probably not many boys would want to join the Guides. Far be it for me to call this sexist, but if the situation was reversed, someone would be had up in Court and sent to the tower. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
