I just watch the 90 mins of the game these days. I always mute the analysis when women are in the studio. Dear me. Quote
Not in Crawley Posted February 28, 2024 Posted February 28, 2024 I also take a lead from my good mate who knows more about the game than most people on here; not only is she an a great and qualified coach, runs a few clubs but she also made that famous Leyton Orient documentary. To say all women pundits are crap, is daft. It's like turning off any male pundit because Clinton Morrison talks nonsense. Quote

Think the point is, with a pundit I want to hear an experts view. Maybe offer a bit of insight and something your average fan doesnt see. Danny Murphy is absolutely superb on that front. Knows the game inside and out. With a woman shes just a fan like the rest of us. Quote

Not really but I could only name about three decent men out of dozens of bad ones. The point is that women are just as likely to be good pundits and Joey Barton is a lunatic with a sexist and racist agenda. Quote

Or played to a high standard? Quote
Farrelli Posted February 28, 2024 Posted February 28, 2024 I’d be interested in what Serena Weigman has to say as well. In 20/30 years it will hardly be mentioned as the women’s game is going to go from strength to strength. Quote

Some of the best players make the worst coaches. It is far from being a prerequisite to being a good manager. In fact if you can get your message across to players it doesn’t really matter. Football is a very simple game and often over complicated by male egos. Quote

The sponsors will soon get fed up as long as 3 women and a dog are turning up to most WSL fixtures. Quote

Sell out prem matches every week etc The women's game is growing, and still has a way to go, so whilst it's growing it'll always be bigger than the men's as it can't grow anymore from its current position Quote

Rubbish. Admittedly I'm really invested in WSL as my daughter is really good (very unlike her father) plays for Canterbury Youth and has trials for Kent shortly - although she's trying to work out her best position- still think she's best on right wing but is determined to be a defensive centre mid. Her coach is a massive Arsenal Women's supporter and the growth is huge in a very short space of time - also participation. There is just as many women's matches when we go on a Sunday morning as men's. Things will change as this generation grows up, at our age there just wasn't a culture of women's football so its harder to be invested - that's understandable, but when we fall off our perch/are dribbling messes it won't be the same.

Outside the prem is not healthy. Anyway the women’s game is going to go from strength to strength IMO Quote
