GG I was being completely honest and proper. The fact is the average male in this country is better at football than the average women. In the same way girls on average do better at English at school and boys do better at Maths. That's not sexist it's fact.Gooner Girl wrote:My last comment was a bit harsh, it was just your slightly sexist undertones wound me up (and you're not the only one). That and some of the crass comments made about women as sex objects disappoint me at times, but I have made some very good friends on this forum and actually, as far as football forums go its a lot more mature, grown up and sensible then most (even with you on itbwfcdan94 wrote:IMHO GG I believe if I joined a forum that was 98% female I would be considered a weird creep.

The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.

Where's your source material for these 'facts' Dan?
Re: Diving Arsenal Players - The Least Shocking Admission Ev

No. You stated these as facts. Asking 'some teachers' would be speculation.

A couple of lines from the telegraph "The difference between girls' and boys' achievement is marked in English, with girls doing better than boys by 14.6 percentage points at grades C and above. In total, 71.3% of girls' papers achieved that level, compared to 56.7% of boys' papers."
"In maths,boys performed slightly better than girls however, with 58.8% of their exams being given a C or above, compared to 57.9% of girls' papers, a difference of 0.5 percentage points."

Club captain and can't get a game for us due to Mertesacker and Kos playing too well. £70,000 a week to sit on the bench. Not surprised Wenger is getting rid but not happy about selling to another of our rivals again. Why does he do that?! And we don't have any other decent back up defenders.bobo the clown wrote:.... & now Vermaelen leaves. What's going on there ??

Ah, but it says here that old Arsene, the lad, was looking to add to the midfield in January. 
Schalke midfielder Julian Draxler says he turned down a move to Arsenal in January and plans to remain with the Bundesliga club this summer.
The 20-year-old Germany international was linked with a move to the Gunners during the transfer window.
Draxler, who signed a five-year contract with Schalke in May, said: "In January, there was the offer of Arsenal, but I decided to stay.
