Now we await the FA, IFA, FAW, UEFA etc making the sensible decision……

Anyone want to bet on how long it will take them to change rules to protect female players???

Delighted

Great that it's Scotland leading the way on this for a change.

Every one of these little wins is a middle finger right at the people who deserve one. Keep em coming!

Great news - that last sentence pissed me right off though. "There are 20 transgender women registered to play amateur football in England among the millions who play at that level." Implies that's it such a minor problem that why is it even an issue. Or could be my stroppy bias showing as fed up with GI nonsense. 😡

Yes, I think that’s definitely a “What a fuss women have made over nothing” comment. They don’t point out that each of those men will negatively affect the 11+ opposition players they meet each week - likely hundreds a year - as well as the women they displace from their own teams. So prioritising 20 men over thousands of women.
