Geoff_Tipps Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I think the winners and runners up of the WPL should be allowed to enter the men's FA cup at R1, similar like they do in darts for the world's. I think this will quickly determine whether the parity between men's and woman's football is justifiable. I suspect I know the outcome as the winners of the WPL will get absolutely horsed by a non league entity from the home counties. 1 Link to comment

And let's get female athletics gold medalists to run against the men so they lose. Then we can all point and laugh at them and enjoy putting the women down. Link to comment

Same goes for women 100m runners? Why should they get the same praise/kudos/medals/prizes when they're fucking slower? Get them against the men and we can all go "Hahaha. Women are shit, right?"

I am not saying woman are shit I am just making the point that there is some sports parity is possible (Darts, snooker etc.), but football (& athletics) its difficult to make a case for it as the it's impossible for woman to compete at the same level as men. The higher quality the higher the price, it's not fucking hard to understand. Link to comment

It's just a fucking stupid comment. Are athletic Olympic gold medals lesser for women than for men? Hopefully you've not got any daughters because, given your antipathy towards women, they'll undoubtedly hate you. Link to comment

I don't have any issue with woman competing at the highest possible level, I think it's a great thing. Especially when you see woman playing against men in the world darts championship, even better when they beat them as well. Do you think Lauren Gordon should be paid the same as Bojan Miovski?

I don't really follow woman's football, bud. The difference between me and you though is that I don't see the need to jump in and slag them off at every opportunity. You're not interested? That's fine. Leave them to it then. No need to jump in and slag them off. The issue is that the whole premise of your argument is dumb. How good they are in relation to the men isn't relevant. It's a different game. You never answered re the parsnips. Very rude. Link to comment

You never answered re the parsnips. Very rude. How is womens and mens football a different game? I always thought the rules were exactly the same. The only difference is the quality. If you're saying it's a different game, is it right to assume you believe it's not possible to bring parity? IMO I'd probably say the carrot is the king of root veg, never been a fan of parsnips.

If that’s the case, why do you have to play football then? Go back to dancing and stuff. I wonder she took the vaccine? Link to comment

DeltaRay1903 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I'm fairly old fashioned on this. I'd ban it. Absolutely hate it. Well rather I hate it being mixed up with real football. The very fact I now have to use terms like "mens football" instead of just football does my head in. It should be entirely standalone. 1 2 Link to comment
