Tsk. Get with the programme Tim.
Football is played by women.
Women’s football is all the fashion these days. Despite being little better than a boys under 16 teams and mostly only watched by the players’ parents and old men in macs with busy hands, women’s football is being relentlessly promoted by woke media. “cracking goal by superstar Wendy Whatsername” screams the BBC headline accompanied by a video of a limp shot being missed by a flappy-handed goalkeeper in an empty, echoing stadium .

To paraphrase a younger ladyfriend of mine who does do the female footie thing, from well before it became popular:
“Periods? Get a [censored] implant and be done with all that [bleep]. End of Period.”
But maybe she’s atypical in that she doesn’t want to be stuck with stone-age methods when it comes to the inconveniencies of the female body and how they interfere with what she wants to do. Even if it involves needles.

I’m utterly disinterested in Bloke Soccer too, so maybe it’s just my ignorance, but when did Chick Soccer get popular?

‘The USWNT’s players filed a lawsuit against U.S. Soccer last year calling for equal pay, with the suit alleging that U.S. Soccer “continues to practice gender-based discrimination against its champion female employees on the WNT in comparison to its less successful male employees on the MNT.”‘
Turn off the heat at Cambridge, and cut U.S. men’s soccer pay 80%. They want equality? Shove it up their . . . .
