England v Portugal tonight

Post by Tom Chance »

Didn't realise England were playing tonight. Top story on BBC Football page. Then noticed it was Women's match. Who cares?
Got more interest in Bostick regional leagues than this but BBC have to ram equality down our throats.
What's others opinions on Women's football?

Not a WUM at all. Just got more interest in my local non-league sides than this.

According to the Beeb, if I go into a pub I will meet a melting pot of nationalities. Men and women and a whole host of others. Sexuality will be spread across numerous preferences. When I go into the pub I meet fat straight white blokes who drink Stella.

To the BBC goons who now put Scottish football results before the English pyramid - shame on you for overturning the traditional order

Look, I'm a snowflake Liberal tw*t with the best of them and think it's good the sport's getting more coverage and more women and girls are playing it...but personally, I'm just not bothered by it. Can't muster any interest whatsoever.

Really depends on the pub and the location. I suspect you chose to go to pubs full of fat straight white blokes as people different to you scare you.

I couldn't agree more.

Womens' football is a different sport. It's fine if women want to play it and watch. It's the BBC that try and insist it's of equal importance to proper football that is so absurd.

There's enough room for both sports. If people want to watch womens football, then thats up to them. Personally, it doesnt interest me very much at this moment in time

If you're not interested why bother posting? Why not just ignore it? Like I'm now going to do with your future posts.

Ooh get her !
It's hard to ignore when you go to BBC Leagues and Competitions and Women's Football sits between Premiership and Championship.
Do they really think that is where Women's football is in terms of interest and support ?

No, but they know that if they put if after the National League then the Daily Mail will jump on them for being sexist.

Now whilst I’m not a fan of the Biased Broadcasting Company I must say the Peaky Blinders is worth the license fee on its own. A brilliant programme and something they should do more of, other than that I don’t watch their channels.

Waste of time replying to me as I'm ignoring your posts.
