I’m probably one of the biggest advocates of women’s football on here, he’s said nothing wrong and Eni Aluko can go and take her face for a shite as far as I’m concerned, daft cow.
Do you realize this makes you sound like a prick?
Same mate. I'm just shocked that I'm not a serial killer by now!I genuinely hate the world we now live in.
A multitude of reasons – but yes, social media does play a big part. People have changed too, though.
Notice at the end of the game it was player of the match, instead of the traditional man of the match.Made a "man's game" comment at the end of the Chelsea game there. Twitter currently in meltdown because his fellow pundit was some female footballer. It's a well known (and factual) turn of phrase ffs, honestly what the f*ck is it with these people?!
Sadly wouldn't be surprised if Sky get rid now.
It was specifically the token comment rather than the main issue being discussed here.I agree with you on a lot of things on this forum, but you can continue to be progressive without putting up a facade that the current “gender craze” in football is anything other than absurd
I'm sure his comment right at the end was "that's what we want to see, men going at it".
Would she have preferred him to say "that's what we want to see, women going at it"?
I think not.
Haha. You are either very young or have blocked out most of your life. It's always been an offended world - we just didn't have social media.
Stop worrying/getting angry and enjoy your life.

Except some of the specimens who play the women,s game are more like men , and that is just a fact before some politically correct posters on here gang up on meIt is a man’s game , played by men
Woman’s football is a woman’s game
Well, I beg to differ!I'm sure his comment right at the end was "that's what we want to see, men going at it".

They’re probably the sort of guys who run around a field in leather chasing other men, wanking.What The Magnificent Bastard said was absolutely correct, the fact that the game isn't stopped for the tiniest physical contact has made the game far more entertaining to watch and the players just get on with it knowing that rolling around as if they've just been shot doesn't cut it anymore.
If some woke arseholes are getting their panties all wet just because he described the man's professional game as a man's game then just fkn ignore them...more likely than not the type of folk who describe football as "22 men running around a field kicking a bit of leather" wankers!
Im not sure the womans team have been around that long. Im not a fan of this false equivalence between the games, a womans game now has the highest England score ever including the mens game.56 year wait? Is she comparing the England World Cup win with the women winning their Euros? I'm not sure they're comparable...
It’s a reference to turtles which fall over on their shell and can’t get back up. Happens to male turtles only.WTF does awkward turtles mean?
Well the main point of watching Match of the Day is to see football highlights, not be enthralled by the panel - admittedly it is good when they show you something you might not have realized or noticed yourself with good analysis. The second point is that having grown up listening to and enduring Lawrenson and Hansen, anyone who actually comes across as if they haven't been forced on the show at gunpoint is an improvement. If having a black person on the show annoys you so much you stop watching it, I'd have to say it sounds like you're doing something wrong.Please enlighten me as to why
Sone needs to call a family meeting and have a word.
The impression I'm getting is since they won that trophy, everyones to bow to their superiority as some example of a good society.56 year wait? Is she comparing the England World Cup win with the women winning their Euros? I'm not sure they're comparable...
I knew a wee blind fella in Edinburgh who played for the Scottish blind team. Fair dos to him, he’s doing himself and everyone he knows proud. But does that warrant him being on the telly talking about professional football, probably not.She played 144 times for England apparently. Never heard of her.
The equivalent of me scoring at fives then giving Thierry Henry grief for being a shit strikerOne of the lionesses has already started mouthing off. That'll boost WSL attendances haha.
He’s right and woman’s football is fucking gash - there ye go!I knew the minute he said it that social media would implode.
She’s got Billy Davies eyesTMB's comment was nothing about men's fitba ve women's but all about wee shitebags throwing themselves to the ground and seeking penalties/cards. Here's a clip with my tweet in response. Context is everything.
Most people in a stadium can't kick their own arse. It hasn't stopped every single support in the world from telling highly skilled professionals what they should and shouldn't be doing.The equivalent of me scoring at fives then giving Thierry Henry grief for being a shit striker

Absolute joke with this new woke brigadeMade a "man's game" comment at the end of the Chelsea game there. Twitter currently in meltdown because his fellow pundit was some female footballer. It's a well known (and factual) turn of phrase ffs, honestly what the f*ck is it with these people?!

I may or may not have replied ‘Beep Beep let’s get on the offended bus!’
When a woman starts a game for an EPL side or comes on as a sub then I’ll take the woman’s game seriously.
Until then SKY can piss off with the box ticking commentators, and the woke brigade can queue up to give me a rusty trombone.
Think it means she is struggling to hold in a shiteWTF does awkward turtles mean?
You’re jumping to conclusions there I think, not once did I mention race as an reason, maybe I should have been clearer and emphasis I wasn’t just referring to the “mens” MOTD showWell the main point of watching Match of the Day is to see football highlights, not be enthralled by the panel - admittedly it is good when they show you something you might not have realized or noticed yourself with good analysis.

Why was she there. What insight did she add. Sky are ripping the piss. People pay top dollar for analysis of games by ex players and current.players of distinction who have played at that level.I heard him saying it and never gave it a second thought, he was just chuffed that there was drama, crunching challenges, and a bit of needle and that is the way 99.9% of the listeners would have taken it.
Having a token woman on the panel talking shite is way more offensive to me.
