Yeah, it's this ****e that winds me up about it all. It's almost a different sport. However, i enjoyed the final and well done to the girls.
Well done to the ladies, what gets me though, is there will be stories coming out that women should get as much as men, I looked at the attendance figures for the two Manchester clubs, they don't average 5,000 Then there will be another load of garbage saying how the women can do it so why can't the men, headlines like the Bobby Moore one really doesn't help it just creates silly arguments
Its genuinely really good to see the England women's team continue to be successful. It wasn't a bad game either tbf. It should be reported separately to the men's game though. There's levels to the game and it's just not comparable at the moment. On the pay thing, it's really simple. If a tv company offers multiple billions for the rights to show the games then they deserve all the money they can get. There's a reason the tv companies dont offer big bucks to the women's game.
It’s total dross no matter how hard sky try to shove it down peoples throats. No point in trying to compare it to anything, men’s or kids football
The Spanish were pretty good… the English, well they tried hard and rode their luck. I don’t mind watching it - but it is literally a different game - factor in size and athletic difference between genders and the pitch is proportionally too big and the goals too big too relative to the men’s game. Which makes the penalties fiasco even more painful. Hey it all adds to the drama. I do think it’s great they’re building up the women’s game. But It’s still in its infancy and the player pool is still pretty small, so whilst I absolutely don’t begrudge them their time in the sun, I’d hope the Bobby Moore headline is meant as tongue in cheek clickbait for Joey Barton. God help us if they’re serious.
