  1. I'm sure that many do, I just have no interest in hearing about them.
  2. I was told that he wasn't very impressed by Ralph but liked the club.
  3. Yep. And it's the same reason I have zero interest in any recording artists political opinions.
  4. I've said more than once it's a minor irritant but has got worse as it's become more frequent. I agree, women's football can be enjoyable and it should be given a platform.
  5. I think it's sensible from a marketing point of view to use the names and identities of mens teams etc. I just don't like the feeling of being duped with content and headlines online- also when records are compared with the mens team like they are in any way comparable.
  6. I absolutely agree. Well said. A few years ago the BBC said they would start giving prominence to women's sport- something I don't really have a problem with. Prior to this I believe these types of headlines were cleared marked as women's football. Personally when I read a headline talking about City or Arsenal, the assumption used to be that they were talking about the actual men's teams and not the womens. Now every time I view similar headlines I have to pause to consider which teams they are discussing and if it's actually going to be something of interest to me. I'm not always aware of every single game that is going to be on every single weekend and prior to this agenda pushing from the BBC and Sky I didn't have to be in order to avoid small annoyances that I've already outlined. Like I mentioned, not the worst thing in the world but I'd prefer that they didn't do it because it's a relatively new practice.
  7. I think Women's football is good and I'm fully supportive of it I just don't like misleading headlines on websites I frequent that waste my time.
  8. Not every single week no I have other things in my life. That was also just one example and I plucked two random teams. I could have been West Ham and Arsenal for all I know.
  9. No not always. I haven't always memorised the fixtures and it's not something I can always recall, particularly when I'm just lazily browsing a website. Like I said, not the worst thing in the world but it is a bit irritating when it's happened a number of times and as I suspect is being done deliberately. That's just one example as well, it's actually happened quite a few times with different types of headlines that's just one that sprang to mind. I didn't say anything about forcing it down my throat, calm down! You seem extremely perturbed by a harmless opinion.
  10. I heard we were looking to sign Mattias Svanberg. Anyone know anything about him?
  11. TBF there has been numerous occasions where the BBC sport site has a headline similar to "Chelsea thrash Man City" and then I go to click on it and its actually women's football. Its not the end of the world but it is a bit irritating and I do suspect they are deliberately ambiguous.
  12. I heard we may actually get to see the kits this week finally.
  13. Most would put us in the bottom three.
  14. It's silly season on here again with Eriksen talk I see. He will either go back to Brentford or more likely go to one of the big teams like United or most likely Spurs. He has no reason at all to want to come here.
  15. I was told it will be a little while yet unless they change their mind. Absolutely no idea why they can't just release it.
  16. This goalie could be superb but I still don't see why we can't just buy a decent established prem keeper. If he's not as good as we thought then we're going to end up with Mccarthy again who we know is not good enough. Seems a pointless gamble in a position you really need to get right.
  17. Pathetic. Thank goodness this was televised so that everyone could see it all for themselves.
  18. Amazing result for Depp. Total vindication for him. Hopefully means that male victims of abuse are believed more in future.
  19. I can't wait to find out what the kits are this year.
  20. The personnel.
  21. I don't know the answer to that. I was told that Ralph hasn't been a big fan for quite a while.
  22. I'm told that Ralph wasn't a big fan of the coaching setup. I also heard he's got the backing of the club but is under a fair bit of of pressure. No guarantees he will survive for long.
  23. Which is exactly the point. He's better than Valery and so will improve us whilst Tino recovers. Makes complete sense on a free.
  24. That seems like a good common sense signing.
  25. I heard about the coaching shake up a couple of weeks ago. I think the new people want to put their own stamp on things and I don't think anyone could blame them. Will be interesting to see if there are any changes to tactics.
