Alan Brazil talksport

Ahhhh. Suppose needless misogynistic opinions would be vulnerable.

Debate's open. There's The Independent (just about all would accept as a left-wing newspaper) reporting that the lass said Man United's women winning a trophy should be a priority, and then there's Dangermows from RTG saying The Independent is talking shite. I suppose some would say you have more journalistic integrity than The Independent, who knows.

Either way, it wouldn't be misogynistic given that what he said was correct. The vast, vast majority of Man United's 70 odd thousand fans every home match and millions around the world, will not take much notice of the women's team, but I'd imagine they don't have a problem with them either and reckon good luck to them.

"Didn't listen....." :lol:

Crackers on here. First you've got people commenting on something they've said they didn't listen to. Then people liking the post where the person has said they've not listened to it :lol:

I don't care for women's football. I dont bother with it. Never hear of it either (outside of this place) but I can clearly see space hopper heed is needlessly being a tit.

His comment could have been relevant whether he listened to it or not. Read it again as its a good post.

It's a bid mad on here to be fair. It's went from 'nice bits of skirts', and 'boilers',to dads crushing their daughter's enjoyment, to people not even listening to the clip!

Only people bringing those type of comments up are posters like you to be fair and maybe the odd idiot. Possibly to create controversy that isn't there?

She didn't. Granted I only saw the clip. But that's all anyone on here has seen/heard and debated.

I mean you could read the comments underneath the link that's been pulled. In amongst all the "womens football is crap" patter you see the odd intellectual pointing out she never once said what you're claiming.

As someone else points put, she agrees the mens game is the priority. She never once says the womens team winning a trophy is the priority aim of "the project". Agbonlahor even clarifies it for Fatty, s he's struggling. When it's explained he goes quiet then shifts it on.

To reiterate, I have no interest in the winens game. Dint see it. Or hear of it outside of here. I do have ears though.

She pointed out the womens side was included in the overral project, and his opinion was most Man U fans couldn't care less if it was or wasn't.... How is that controversial?
 
I was listening to talksport at the time.
Brazil doesn't like Aherne and was getting at her.
What he was saying is that the vast majority of Man U supporters only care about the men's team, which is probably true.

Interestingly he didn't make it personal and resort to personal insults like Sheban did in the second part of their discussion.

I was talking about him in general. Very rarely have to put up with is "wisdom" but it is invariably ill-thought and degenerates into bluster.

I have no idea who she is but I think she was trying to make a minor point, which escalated when he misunderstood and started being unnecessarily condescending.
At the end of the day, this is manna from heaven for Talkshite. Their whole business model is based on generating "outrage" for increased interaction and revenue.
That is why they employ the hard of thinking.

Your lot actually said these ridiculous things. Why shouldn't I point out their idiocy?

It's not. But its a needless thing to say. He said it simply to fire shots at the womens game.

Amazing how many people can't look beyond their seal clapping somebody slagging off the women's game.

Nobody is disagreeing really with what Brazil is saying. But his attitude, body language and facial expressions were just disrespectful.

'Your lot' 🙄...... You lose the power of debate when you resort to that level unfortunately.

Whether he did or didn't only he'll know. But ultimately the exact things he said aren't controversial.
It's posters coming on slagging off other fans who dare not be offended by him having an opinion on something.

One last time. He said the mens team is the main focus. She never said it wasnt. He said no one gives a toss about womens football in terms of man utd getting back to trophies. She wasn't arguing they did. So, why is Fatty saying those things?

What's the matter with saying your lot? It's factually correct. You back up alan brazil for being 'factually correct'.

It's not factually correct because ironically that's just your opinion, a bit like Brazil had in that conversation.
You're resorting to put downs and insults because you can't have a sensible conversation and debate on it.

You don't think people calling women 'boilers' and "nice bits of skirt' deserve to be slagged off? Makes sense
 
He’s correct, very few people care about it on balance. It’s such a marginal part of football but now seems to be imposed on everyone. BBC and Sky when they list the scores are hell bent on putting the women’s fixtures just below the prem. They also love a bit of click bait when the lob in a headline like arsenal v Chelsea team news etc. anyway good on those that like it. Standard is awful.
