I promise I will not bang on about this any more after this post (not on this thread, anyway), but the point I m
was making earlier today was that since male footballers are allowed to take part, it's unlikely that only one country is fielding them, or that the remaining teams are 100% female. FIFA had better sort this out because if the policy becomes embedded in big US or European sides, reversing it will be nigh on impossible and we can kiss women's football goodbye.

I had the same thought watching one of today's games. They might well be female - Google says she is and that this player has been humiliated by claims that she's not. But Google also says Castor Semenya is female and a woman and felt humiliated, so who knows? Either way, it's really unfair and could be avoided by simply not allowing males to play in female sports.

But you can't separate the issues.
Our posts belong here as well as in FWR.and it's not a question of 'banging on ' about anything.
Anyone posting or browsing the Women's World Cup thread should be aware of FIFA's weakness and cowardice.

Colleagues all in deep depression "first the men are shit now the women!"

I've told them it's OK, I have a German shirt but I'll wear the English one now. Much grumblingvensued

I agree (obviously) but it's not my thread and the issue has been raised elsewhere on these boards. Sometimes it's nice to have a break from doing my own head in! 😁

BellaAmorosa · 03/08/2023 18:24

I've been recording the Netball to watch on days when there is no football, so thanks for telling me the score, @imed! 😉
