    I said men’s teams aren’t going play women’s teams, which is what you said was going to ‘drive women’s sport backwards’.

    Final ball’s been terrible in this game, everything’s been a pass to the keeper.

    Point out without editing where you said men's teams aren't going to play women's teams and also where I said mens teams? I said men who now identify as women playing in women sports ... I just used the examples of the u15s and the legends game as example of the vast difference
    ( nothing about women's Vs men's teams in a week in week out environment as that's never going to happen and you know 100% that's not I ment, you're just being you )

    Men who claim to now be "women" have already started to be allowed to compete in women's sport and it's a disaster.

    Been really impressed by Haiti. Their next two games should be a good watch too.

    Nah, sorry but you were disingenuously saying that the Women's goalie kit issue is just a media fabrication or exaggeration, which is completely untrue. There's far too much of this stuff online these days; it's harmful, it deliberately muddies the water and stokes division. So yeah I'm gonna call it out even if you are so progressive that you married a woman who played football.

    No, I just said the men's isn't available either but there hasn't been any mention of that, if you're going to have out cry about the GK kit not being available
    ( which is wrong and it should be and as I keeper myself I hate that it isn't ) then I think I should be reporting properly that both the male and female versions aren't available.

    And steady on, we aren't married. Don't be giving her ideas ;) and believe it or not the fact she played football has sod all to do with why we are together

    I'm saying it isn't true that the men's one is unavailable in the same way as the women's one.

    Perhaps the men's one is out of stock, I don't know, but the issue with the women's one is that they don't sell it at all. Nike have acknowledged this and said it's a commercial decision. If it was the same for both genders, Mary Earps wouldn't be complaining, it wouldn't be a story covered by reputable outlets like The Athletic and Nike wouldn't be acknowledging the issue.

    Maybe you've been deceived by someone else's misinformation, but this stuff does need nipping in the bud. This particular issue is relatively trivial but you get this deliberate misinformation with politics and health and all the rest of it and it's a scourge in the internet age.

    I've not been misinformed, this season's men's England GK shirt isn't available to buy either. Both should be, but it also should be reported properly that both are unavailable and not just the women's or men's if it was the other way round

    Nike only make goalkeeper kits for kids (realistically, how many adults would want one?) and they are currently selling the England men's and all the club keeper kits, but have publicly stated that it is their company policy not to make women's keeper kits for any club or country.

    Feel free to send me a link where you can buy this season's men's England GK shirt. It's not available anywhere I can see, not Nike's site nor England's official merchandise site..... You can pick up older ones easily
