Women? Playing football? When did this happen?

Women's football always has a couple of outstanding points!!!

Seriously, though, I know the skills are getting better and we have a (reasonably) succesful national squad but it isn't something I would pay to see.

They need better looking players, kits should consist of tiny hot pants and tops that go see-through when it rains.

I'd pay to see that.....

Robert Green? I think we should cut the ladies some slack if that clown is our first pick.

Didn't Blatter comment on the shorts needing to be a little tighter?

Yes, he did.

If he enforced that then he could make whatever other mental changes he wants to the mens game and no one would give a shit.

They're all lesbians anyway aren't they??

If they went in for some Russel Hoult action that'd get me more interested

Women's football is like a handjob. A poor imitation of something men do better themselves.- Thankyou Sickipedia.

In all seriousness, it's fecking awful to watch. There's some good players, but the pitch, and particularly the nets are too big. Make it smaller and the game would improve.

That's always been my observation as well. Given the height and ability of the keepers, anything marginally right or left of center is going to go in.

A lot is made of the standard of goalkeeping, but since coaching has been improved, or broadened, and there is now a lot more moeny in the women's game, some of the keepers are pretty good ability wise, but the amount of long range mishit, slow, not particularly great shots that go in just because they are in the top foot or so just makes the entire game seem a bit farcical.

Name one.

Tommy Lawrence ... a.k.a. 'The Flying Pig'. Aged 69 now but better than any Scotch keeper .... & would be better than any female keeper even when he's gone to his grave.

Wimmin's football is a farce & if the BBC had any money & weren't forced to be PC we'd see nothing of it ... which would still be too much.

I assure you this is not sexist in the slightest. The reason i made two separate links for men and women was so i could distinguish the differences in opinions (if any) between men and women. As i have found out, they do indeed differ.

It's still sexist.

Anyway, you could tell which were which. The wimmins' would be longer, more concerned with beauty products and, ultimately, pointless.

Is it fook. Is having male and female toilets sexist? What about not prescribing the pill to stop men conceiving children? Is it scandalous women can't get prostate treatment on the NHS?

It's a survey designed to find out views on the womens game. I'd imagine the reason there is a seperate one for men and women is to find out if sex has an effect on these views. Now I'm sick of fooking dissertation students, and can't be bothered doing another survey, but I imagine the questions are identical (or as near as damn it, not much point asking a bloke if he has played womens football). Of course if the questions are different, male question 3a "With the slower pace of the game, do you think it is necessary to have the offside law in women's football?", female question 3a "Since we'd all like to play in heels, do you think that silly rule about the salt shaker being nearer to the gucci bag than the horrible carry around dog is needed, or should we all go and get a wax and perv at Darren the manual labourer?", that would be sexist.
