Womans Football
Controversial post maybe. However i watched the woman's world cup i few years ago when we reached the semi final and by and large the games were not too bad. Now i like a flutter now and again and the other week i bet on the Australia woman team to beat Korea the game was streamable on youtube, i have to say it was a truly dreadful game. I won my bet but i felt like gauging my eyes out. I could have comfortable played and starred in that game. This goes back to a few years ago when a mate of mine played for manchester city ladies. I had an argument with her because i said Padiham men could beat them. Well last night Harry's heroes beat Crystal Palace woman's team,a bunch of overweight ex professional, granted very good players in their prime. I also recall USA woman playing an under 15 academy team and getting thumped 5-2. This begs the question whats the point.

Re: Womans Football
You're not really comparing apples with apples though.
There's a reason why women sprinters don't race against men sprinters, women rugby sides don't play male ones, women pole vaulters don't compete against male ones etc etc etc
We're built differently.

Re: Womans Football
Yes, stop women from playing because they will (probably) never be as good as men.
Using the same reasoning, can I be banned from ironing?

Re: Womans Football
Womens football is a contradiction in terms. My biggest fear for the game is that someday in the near future some politically correct loon will decide that we must integrate women into the mens game.

Your biggest fear is about women being in what you're deciding should be a male environment.

Re: Womans Football
On a more serious note why do some people (not only women) feel that women should be 'included' in everything? Why, if they wish, can't men do things that don't include women, such as clubs for men only or similar? It's not an insult to women if a group of guys want to have a drink (for instance) without women around. Women could do the same if they want, that's fine. Equality is a great thing and I support it and always have but people should still have the freedom to do what they wish if it doesn't harm anyone.
It all goes back to the same problem I suppose; whenever you increase someones 'rights' you automatically decrease someone elses. Before anyone asks I don't have the answer to that particular problem.

Re: Womans Football
I was talking mainly about playing but yes you are right. But tell me, what is wrong with a 'male environment'? There are female environments and no-one is talking about forcing them to give them up. As long as everyone has the right to the same thing why can't people be allowed to choose. If a bunch of guys want to do something without women there why is that bad - and vice versa of course. Forcing people into a procrustean bed of sameness cannot ever be right.GodIsADeeJay81 wrote:We've already started, or haven't you noticed the assistant refs, commentators, backroom staff and of course Karen Brady at West Ham?

Re: Womans Football
Unless a rule was introduced whereby every team had to field x number of female players at any one time then there is no way that anybody would ever be forced to have a female player on their books, however IF there was a Woman or Women good enough to play at the top level and IF they were better than the players we already had then I would have no issue whatsoever with them playing for Burnley.

Re: Womans Football
A womens football match can be every bit as good or as bad as a mens match. You just have to accept it is a different game. Less pace, less power but the skill level is no different and the excitement of a great goal or save or tackle is exactly the same and I’ve been to a few.

Re: Womans Football
Pointless argument. If the women want him there that's fine, if they didn't he shouldn't be there. My point is CHOICE. Men AND women should be able to have organisations, clubs, etc. that are exclusive to them if they wish to do so and no amount of political correctness should in any way interfere with that freedom of choice. I am and always have been a great believer in equality, it's been one of the cornerstones of my adult life, but I also believe in individual freedoms and freedom of choice and that includes the freedom to lead your life without interference from others. Both sexes should have the freedom to exclude the other if they wish to do so and it does actually happen for women more than men; women only gyms, women only taxis, womens 'groups', womens shelters (have you ever seen a male shelter?), there is even (or at least was) a minister for women. If I ran a club or organisation I would personally welcome all without discrimination but if I wanted men only I would like to have that right to do so without a bunch of womens activists banging my door down saying they have a right to be let in.GodIsADeeJay81 wrote:Ok cool, so let's have Phil Neville out of the job he's doing alright in.

Re: Womans Football
So you want men's football to be exclusive to men?
Ok, so let's have a clear out of the women from all the backroom staff..
Or isn't that what you mean?
From what I can gather you're happy for women to be on the backroom staff, or in the boardroom, just not in the managerial job in men's football because you believe that's the man's job.
Feel free to correct me if that's wrong.

Re: Womans Football
Who clubs employ in whatever capacity is their decision, that includes players. I don't know if you have noticed but many (even most) clubs have female teams who play to a reasonably high level and that is fine, I applaud them, so what exactly is your argument? My point is I don't want to watch womens football, it holds no appeal to me at all, and the two should be kept seperate, nothing more.GodIsADeeJay81 wrote:So you want men's football to be exclusive to men?

You want a line drawn between mens and womens football.
Great, but it would appear you only want the line drawn for the managers job, unless I'm mistaken...
We aren't asking you to watch womens football, the conversation is about women in men's football either playing OR managing.
There's a massive resistance to having women managing men's team on here, something about being able to handle testosterone levels in the changing room, or respecting a woman etc.
It's all just smoke and mirrors because they don't want to admit the reason they don't want women in charge of a man's team is simply because they're qomen.
The female players they had doing analysis last summer on TV were actually very good, concise and more appealing to listen too than many of their male counterparts who seem to get all the jobs, because they put their point across better.
But they're women, so we can't let them in...

Re: Womans Football
I'm sorry bud but where did I even mention management? Neville only came up in conversation when brought up by someone else, I have never mentioned any issue about management except in passing because of someone elses comment and even then it was about choice. Personally I don't care who manages the England ladies team, if they want a male manager then that's okay by me, if they don't then that's okay as well. If they said 'we want a female manager' I wouldn't have a problem with that. It's their choice. If Neville has been 'imposed' on them and they don't like it then I would fully support their desire for a female manager. Are you getting the drift?GodIsADeeJay81 wrote:Not desperate to criticise anything, merely asking questions.

As for your tangent about female pundits I personally don't have a problem with that because regardless of gender they all talk b0ll0cks. Football programmes now are dragged out almost to infinity to allow the likes of Shearer/Lineker et al to have a very lucrative career after their well paid football life. 10 minutes of a game followed by what seems like an eternity 'analysing' an incident from 100 different angles when that analysis isn't going to change a bloody thing.

But as it happens he played at a higher standard than any woman ever has or ever will so i clearly more qualified.
That said still a bit odd that he chooses to manage in the womens game.
As for my 3 month old - unsure of the relevance of your odd comment.

You're saying you want to block women from a certain job, that includes all women and you've got a daughter haven't you?
I've got a daughter and she can do whatever job she wants, so long as she enjoys it.
Using your logic, if a female manager won the world cup, they'd be infinitely more qualified than all managed in the PL?
Or doesn't it work that way in your head?

That's the issue there, you look down upon it regardless of how much it's growing etc.
It's becoming more popular and the standard will improve over time, regardless of what people like you think of it.
On the plus side my daughter is free to do whatever job she pleases to do.

Re: Womans Football
With the game becoming less contact it wouldnt surprise me if we see a female footballer on the men’s game. She’ll have to be something special though.
That said, footballers are developed from the age of 4 these days and brought up into their adult years in academy’s. If girls were given the same opportunity, it could happen.
In theory, if there was a female player good enough to play for Burnley, I’d have no issues, why would I?
I’ve often wondered why men’s and women’s cricket don’t merge.

Re: Womans Football
Is there a more perfect illustration of how weak some people's masculinity is that they are **** scared of men having to actually compete with women on equal footing where men don't have a biological advantage. It seems they're in favour of affirmative action, as long as it protects them from having to compete against women for managerial and coaching roles.
It reminds me of the story of Stephen Miller who ran onto a track in the middle of a girls athletics event to show how he was faster than the girls. Masculinity proven, i guess.

Re: Womans Football
If a woman was good enough to play for a non-woman's team (and I say that because why should I start calling it men's football) and wanted to play for one - then if a club want to give them the opportunity, they should.
The chances of this all being the case is very unlikely, or at least not likely for a long time.
This is the case at any point for me. It is happening within the referring, within the board and no doubt plenty of other places. It's not a 'man's environment', some of the most influential people in me becoming a Burnley fan are women.
I can see it at management level before playing level FWIW
The chances of this all being the case is very unlikely, or at least not likely for a long time.
This is the case at any point for me. It is happening within the referring, within the board and no doubt plenty of other places. It's not a 'man's environment', some of the most influential people in me becoming a Burnley fan are women.

Re: Womans Football
The rules currently don't allow a woman to play in the men's game, even if she were good enough.

I watched a thing about this the other day, in regards to transgender women playing football alongside natural women and it was interesting.
As for CCC, he's all about restricting what his kid can do for a living.

Re: Womans Football
Women’s football might be decent pub level at full international level where they’re professional athletes ,but their infrastructure is a 100 yrs behind . While they can look ok playing against other women if you put say a prem ladies side against a reasonable team from say the 9th/10th level of the football league they’d be destroyed by the men .
It’s not like tennis or track athletics where the technical skills are very similar and it’s simply a case of losing to stronger species . In football they just can’t play it technically at anything like the level of men ( again possibility due to their overall physiological logical make up ) as for the keepers ...

"regardless of his statement recently"
I'm unfamiliar with "his" statement recently, did he say he wasn't physically male?

There we go again. It's only ever men making this comparison. Women don't care, they enjoy playing and being the best women footballers they can be and competing at the highest level they can.AlargeClaret wrote:While they can look ok playing against other women if you put say a prem ladies side against a reasonable team from say the 9th/10th level of the football league they’d be destroyed by the men.
It's only men - and quite often men that don't play at any sort of level - seeking some sort of consolation from putting down women, as though that's a badge of honour for them.

They won't admit it, but that's exactly what it is.
