Women’s Euros 2022

[10 Trenches Deep]

...sometime in the 80's. Keep up at the back!!

I just don't remember the Ryder Cup as being a big deal. These days they make out it's essential like the Ashes or the World Cup.

I just don’t enjoy it. The way the world is these days. Not being sexist or whatever but generally when you have an opinion that goes against the woke or what your told you should like you get grief. Nowt wrong with people enjoying it. Nowt wrong with people not

Cheers marra.
Too many woke feckers on here pretending they actually like it.

too many snowflakes getting upset by it

That's interesting was there a particular reason it was more popular?

Mainly to do with the era with any match fit man being sent to the WWI battlefronts, and women taking their places not only in the factories but also on the field.

"Yet once war ended and the men filtered home, women found themselves being quietly pushed back to their ‘conventional’ places in society. In December 1921, the FA put a ban on women’s football, declaring it to be “quite unsuitable for females and ought not to be encouraged". The ban wasn’t lifted until 1971, having a hugely damaging effect on the game."

Wokey Wokey stinky pokey, follow the lads it's topper. Have an opinion, it's valid, don't worry about being manipulated.

Started to grow during WW1 when a lot of male players joined up.

I keep expecting the BBC to win the contract for MotoGP and then try to persuade the us all it's essential prime time weekend viewing

I would watch that to be fair

“Ram it down our throat”

TVs don’t have to be on all the time you know

 

[Barry Quizshow]

Wahey it's woke to like watching women's football

Fuck me this thread is pathetic

Well tbf you do have to be awake to watch it (same as the blokes) so I suppose that's a sort of woke?

 

[BucketBiff]

I would watch that to be fair

Better than F1 for me

 

[Kenna]

Hardly any Blokes football on at the moment so why not? It's a pair of tits and a fanny, get over it, don't like it don't watch it.

 

[dundeemackem]

I’m not a fan so I don’t watch it. The bbc show it because it’s cheap. Put simply, if people at home had to pay to watch it, would they in great enough numbers to fund it as a professional sport like the mens game? Maybe in fullness of time they will.

My wife absolutely detests woman’s football and refuses to watch it.

 

[wardleymackum]

This might not go down too well but why are the BBC pushing this sport down our throats on their main channel?
Unbelievable the coverage for this minority sport.

They need something to show at the Sports Personality of the Year Awards.....!

I turned on the TV and it was half time. Can I ask why there were no Male pundits.....? I quickly turned it off.....!!!!

Never seen it, but I bet it's more interesting than F1. Never understood F1s appeal; usually a two horse race yet somehow it's a global big deal.

Ah makes sense, what doesn't is the club's agreeing to cut their revenue mental

I said too many woke feckers.
If you count yourself amongst them, good for you!

 

[BucketBiff]

Ah, so what you mean is not that you aren't allowed to express your opinion, but that people who think your opinion is bullshit shouldn't be allowed to express theirs.

Last 2 bits. Nowt wrong with people enjoying, Nowt wrong with people not.

A fantastic front three if ever there was one

 

[ebb]

I'm not bothered that it's on or not but I don't watch it and have no interest in it. To be fair I don't watch many Premier league matches either since we got relegated out of it.

I'm not bothered one bit about it. I don't want to watch it so I don't. It's hardly rammed down anyone's throats
