Angry men about womens football

[Ontobetterthings]

I was listening to talk radio and there was a very angry man on ranting away about womens football. He was basically saying put it on a different channel. Noone wants to watch, even his wife agrees. He was out of breath he was that mad. I was quite taken aback. Far enough if you dont like it, dont watch. Why on earth he was this upset I dont know! Whats with this disgusting reaction! How weird!!

Why are some posters being so negative about women's football. Are they football experts? I think it's great that our women can win an interbtional title and then successfully defend it three years later.

What an inspiration they are. Prince William looked overjoyed as he was congratulating the girls.

I just wandering if back in the days, people were attending women football matches as a football or more some kind of circus to watch?

Well, as I've just asked you to provide the history of teenage boys repeatedly beating the World Champions, yes, I would.

I’ve just got no time for people moaning that they aren’t as good as the men. So what? They aren’t men. They are the best women’s team in Europe and beat the World Cup winners. People don’t get mad about female tennis players or female athletes who don’t play /compete like men, so why does women’s football bring out these stupid comments.

Very well thanks, but I'm being honest when I say the quality of football on both sides was shit.

Exactly 💯

Honestly this is such a wierd take. They are not different games at all they are just played by different bodies. The rules are the same, the length of the pitch is the same, the height of the goals are the same. Its like if the men had to play on a pitch 1/3 larger than the current pitch.

Luckily the women (as far as I am aware) are playing other women, thats what makes it comptetive- not that they are playing men where it wouldn't be competitive. It is possible to enjoy sport, whatever it is.

Strength and speed are key elements of the standard of football.

Actually they are right in that men and women do play a different game, which is why TW shouldn't play in women's sport.

Of course the normal programmes exist. They get postponed. No need for that. If they must put sport everywhere they could at least keep normal programming going on red button.
Why do sports fans think they are the only ones who matter? Such arrogance.

Agree.
I am sure Prince William recognises that these women are great role models for his children - particularly his daughter.

Good for you

I think you are making the same argument. The same size goal is defended by a 6'4" male keeper and a 5'9" female keeper, for example. The way of playing that position is different for the two players.

I am so delighted for and proud of the England national team.

Such an achievement to win this tournament.

It absolutely is about strength. Muscle strength. Stamina. Speed. Other physical attributes like, for example, lung capacity and explosive muscle power.
Though the England men probably should play the England women.
It would be their best chance of winning.

Yes. Where are all these men when women need them to support women in (at the bare minimum) keeping men out of women’s sport? They don’t give a shit because they’re misogynistic hypocritical fckers.

Such a male game?! Christ alive. 1921 would like it's opinion back.

Some people seem so, I dunno, bitter about a team of fantastic sports women who have just achieved a brilliant tournament win.

Do these bitter and miserable people think that women should just stop playing competitive sport because they're not men or summat?

Congrats to the amazing Lionesses! 🏆

I agree. It's a bit of a stretch to claim a hungover bunch of blokes playing pub football would "be better". Stronger, aye. Fitter, probably not.

As a avid NL/NLS attendee....I would agree there aren't that many that turn up to regularly to watch. 😆

Maybe the problem isn’t the football — maybe it’s how you view women’s achievements.

They can't keep normal programming and provide additional sports programming without spending more money on programming than they have. Obviously.

But the womens world cup has always been on the schedule. It hasn't disrupted anything.

I mean womens Euros.

I would just take the "strong" out of that sentence and replace it with "women existing".

Exactly. That’s why women play separately, and the winners are celebrated.
