I dont think a single person is resentful. The issues are self inflicted by the promotion of it. As has been mentioned on this thread, the level of womens football is miles below that of mens and you'd have to be an absolute idiot to suggest otherwise. Yet as also mention on this thread we have seen Ellen White listed alongside Harry Kane and Rooney as Englands top all time scorer, that is absolutely ridiculous and does the womens game no favours Like womens athletics and tennis keep it seperate and enjoy it for what it is. The problem is there are certain people that take it very personally if anyone dares to suggest this.

which is exactly the point i've making by the usual suspects dont seem to be able to understand. Unless you're frothing at the gash about then you're being negative and making the usual remarks 😂

i have been advised to consolidate all of my workplace pensions (not my current one) and stick it all in a SIPP. Anyone else done this? Worth it or not?

we managed to get 25m for two lots of shite so miracles do happen!

i see the usual suspects are getting upset about how low level womens football is, like a feminist with sand in their knickers. So predictable.

Danny Ings was 6 years ago, Ramsdale hasn't played 40 premier league games for us. Walker-Peters, success These are ones we've signed permanantly for a decent amount that weren't past their best and all turned out to be in our best signings in the last 6 years. Yet some claim it doesnt matter. Theres your proof right there. There are a few others frees and loans. Walcott, Maitland Nyles, Frazer, Lallana all of which past their best and poor. Although Walcott was okay in his first season. Dont think any of them played 40 games though Cant think of any others.

ITV lapping it up, it's really dangerous to be a woman working in the media these days they should get rid of all these men and hire new, young female presenters etc Jesus Wept, now they're on about a mysogynistic society and we should be celebrating women that dont have surgery because it's brave as society it against older women, she admitted she looks up to feminists and shes refused to go to her dentist because they had an advert for botox in the surgery. These people

Along with naughty Greg John Tordoe has been accused of making a racist remark in a social setting back in 2018, is this what it's come too? Its pretty pathetic.

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?
Turkish replied to sadoldgit's topic in The Lounge
He’s had a few pops on the main board as well. Let’s remember it’s been a tough time for SOG as no one mentioned him when he didn’t post for a few weeks. That’ll have hurt -
Math? You cant then, that's fine, we all get things wrong at times.

Yep, i was and i was wrong, he was miles off it not helped by the fact Martin played him as a winger which he isn't. 4 premier league goals and 14 matches doesn't make him a seasoned premier league player though does it. Any chance of listing the the others given you claimed there were at least 7 and so far you've come up with 2.

The entire point of my post was signing quantity over quality so it wasn't hard to work out be seasoned players what i meant. Ben Breaton Diaz had played 14 premier league games when we signed him 😂 Archer had played 39 over 3 seasons Cornet 37 over 3 seasons Lallana we over the hill so even if we remove "premier league quality" 3 of your "at least 7" are far from seasoned players.
-
Name them then. Who were the at least 7 premier league quality seasoned professionals we signed last summer?
-
It not even that. It's the old buy cheap, buy twice (or in our case 3 times) strategy. Too much emphasis on spending caps, buying in the 10-15m mark rather than buying quality in key positions. We've wasted eye watering amounts on centre backs and strikers over the years going for quantity over quality. We've ignored seasoned professionals due to being hung up on future resale value and of course we've brought loads of youth players who haven't been up to it. Yeah we've done well with some but for years we've gone for quantity over quality and once again we've ended up with a bloated squad of average players not good enough for the premier league and too expensive for any other league.

i dont remember Forsters contract situation but we signed Gunn in 2018 Forster left in 2022

of all the transfer decisions we've made over the last few years his one is up there with being the most ridiculous. Note i say transfer decisions, not signings. As a promising young keeper, a year playing in league one a handful of international caps and a reasonable fee, as a signing it made sense but as a back up to develop and eventually take over from your current keeper. I mean we paid less for Baz than we did Angus Gunn when we already had Forster and McCarthy. To throw him into the premier league and expect him to excel was just utterly stupid. I said as much at the time and a few others did whilst the stats geeks went on about how many clean sheets he'd kept for Ireland. You have to wonder if being so clearly thrown in at the deep end when clearly wasn't ready has ruined him as he wasn't even a particularly competent keeper at championship level let alone Premier league.

that's hilarious, epic terrace banter. Reminds me of the bloke who used to be near me who would shout "come on oooover" at Holiveld every time the ball went near him in his thickest (in more ways than one) Hampshire accent, then look round to see who was laughing. Oh how we laughed.

I wasn’t really interested I watched Bayern Munich beat that New Zealand team as I was bored and thought the whole thing was a farce. Watched the semi final PSG V Real and was blown away by PSG to be honest so watched the final as was expecting them to dish out a similar performance tonight but Chelsea were excellent. Crap tournament and nothing more than a money maker for FIFA but I did enjoy the semi final and final
