I disagree. It was intentionally exaggerated to call out and confirm that the motivation isn't sexism but due to indifference, in that case why the need to have a go at people who support it and are pleased by the prospect? I will challenge that.

It was challenging Batmans perspective, in the hope he would see how daft it would be to oppose something based on outdated gender paradigms. You can read and follow conversations, right? Go and have a look. But no, you just took on something to have a go at me with, just what is it about me that gets to you CB Fry? Why do you care so much?

He did, that was quite cringeworthy. The girl who asked the question did look a bit embarrassed at that point.

And here was me thinking this was a football forum. What a place to get animated about a football related topic, in a football forum. Get a grip pal. You preach about lacking perspective and drivel but post that. All due to you getting involved in a conversation that wasn't even yours just to snipe at me. Laughable. At least you had chance to have a good rant for no reason, feeling better now are we? There's a good boy.

Can't complain chap, can't complain.

All fair points, you have the conviction to care and try to put me in my place, I respect that. I will stand my ground on defending the Saints Ladies team though. It's a step forward, not the biggest but a step forward. And regarding my daughter, I mate the caveat of 'should she chose' at the start of my point. Learn to read through your red mist. If you hadn't tried to dredge up ancient history in the first place then this would have been entirely avoided, push me and I will push back you precious little soul you.

Prat. I was in my twenties at the time. You came out of nowhere there chap, how's tricks?

To do what? Simple question, surely. Try to insult me some more, say you don't give a f**k about women's football but are not sexist, then move on. It's only a forum after all. What's so tricky about that?

Ha. As you wish.

I am perfectly fine. I just find it very funny that you are protesting continually how little you care about something. It makes you look very impressive, don't worry.

I have not expressed an opinion so don't see fit to make false presumptions. I am asking the questions. If you don't care, why ask that question in the first place and why continue the conversation.... about the thing you don't care about?

But to think of the question in the first place.... How odd. You are thinking about it, even if it's in a flippant way. But no, you don't care. It doesn't offend you does it? It doesn't upset your masculine equilibrium? No, you don't care. You will answer this post to prove that you don't care.

How odd. Thought you didn't care about a ladies team so why consider such a thing?

So Saints is only ever the men's team? Even if the Ladies team is operated by and run by the club's staff/coaches, in the club's facilities? Fair enough if you don't want to actively support or follow it, but if it's run by the club, it is the club.

I said we got what we wanted. I've never had any thought that it played an active part. Bless you CB Fry for caring and remembering though, to know you were so moved keeps the spirit of those halcyon days alive! So, you are a sexist then CB Fry?

So it's purely about what you want?

Ahem: You must get off on this. I hate to think that you are actually that misogynistic. Going back to something you missed, Do you think the whole of the Grass-roots of the game should give up. After all it's only about the teams that are being watched, right?

A successful campaign I may add, we got what we wanted. And it's the words of a man who has just become a father to a young daughter. That such retrograde perspectives as yours still exist is really quite scary.

No a team for those who need help would be a good idea. Shall I sign you up? You are just being a poor man's Turkish now.

So the entire grass roots of the game should give up?

Very well said.

I don't. So, you have no qualms about depriving people a chance to represent their club because of gender? You make some further sarcastic examples, but should there be the interest in running them and the club gives it's blessing, why should that be something for you to criticise? You have a daughter who catches the football bug and you have to explain that's wrong? You tell her to get back into the kitchen? Or do you take pride in the fact that should she have the ability she can play for her club, her team.

I'm advocating a women's team and you are just being sarcastic to those with that position. But fine, if you want to lower yourself to the lowest common denominator that's fine.

You don't want to answer me directly then? Just want to snipe?
