I just saw that. Bizarre. I'm watching the Leeds game anyway its been decent.

Absolute nonsense. My point has never ever been that racism is solely online, my point is that the abuse highlighted in the media is almost entirely from social media and that any episodes of racism in football stadia is normally dealt with incredibly strongly and I believe that levels of that have improved markedly (certainly from a few decades ago) and I haven't seen any evidence that it is any worse than in society in general. That doesn't mean that minorities in a crowd shouldn't be dealt with if racism can be proven. Inequality is not evidence of racism that's ridiculous. What evidence do you have of sports clubs tolerating racism? The only reason I've repeated some points is because some posters are making the same false claims repeatedly which need challenging and also people like you are saying I've said things I've never ever said like racism is only ever made online.

What a weird way to phrase it. "get used to female cricket hockey and football!?" it's not like saying its a bit annoying when it's not separated explicitly from the mens sports is going to make a blind bit of difference or seee any sort of change. Fwiw I agree with whelk, it's clear they've had some big talk about diversity and how they can push certain women's sports like football that the vast majority aren't interested in and some of the ways they do it like trying to deliberate conflate the mens football with the women's and lumping football together as one amorphous blob in the hopes that fans will just take whatever is on offer is confusing and a bit irritating. Like I said earlier it's really a minor gripe but it's a perfectly valid opinion to hold and I don't know why you're so annoyed at someone expressing an opinion. You're allowed to disagree and think it's great you know.

When I'm pissing about on a forum I should always caveat the opinions. The good news is I've never actually watched the channel since the first week it was on so I really wouldn't know what's on it anyway. Really not sure why they thought in this day and age they'd have any particular success on terrestrial TV, they'd have been much better off launching on YouTube or something like that.

You're a noddy Saintsweb poster.

I wouldn't base my opinion on a players ability based on 1 game either good or bad. I hope he's brilliant but to say he's head and shoulders above any other striker at the club at this stage is a bit silly.
-
Indeed. Good start but some people are going over the top based on a very short period of time.
-
It's not clickbait it's just an opinion I hold about it that you don't share. It seems that others also share the opinion so it doesn't seem that controversial. My issue isn't with it being promoted if that's what they want to do, I just woild prefer if it was made clearer that it's not mens football so I can see it more quickly.

If you didn't consider it worthy of note then you didn't have to reply you know.
-
I assumed it was some sort of flashback rather than a game that happened today. The nature of twitter invites you to check out short videos without looking at things in depth.
-
Here's an example. This was promoted on my twitter feed and it was only after wasting my team reading and watching the video did I realise this wasn't spurs and man City.
-
It's not something I'm interested in either but it's probably good for some people. The most irritating thing is when they use the same names as the mens team in their adverts or in a headline so then I go and have a read and find out it's not actually spurs drawing with man City.
-
Cheers I'll download it. Thanks.
-
Maybe it should be in the little things that annoy me thread. It's not the most irritating thing in the world but when I'm checking the live scores multiple times during a match day then really ill be checking the top four leagues and then maybe Eastleigh. I don't really want the women's league sandwiched in there for the same reason I don't want the Polish or Hungarian leagues. I have no interest.
-
Personally I think they should let you choose what order you want the leagues in. It is annoying that I have to scroll through a load of noddy leagues instead of the league or the competition that I actually want to look at.
-
Good point. It's a bit like when keepers always look decent for the teams near the bottom because they have so many opportunities to make big saves. Making last ditch tackles and blocks all the time isn't necessarily the sign of a good defender because they've allowed that situation to occur in the first place.
-
That's the one. I just checked and it was 2018 so not even that long ago. Osaka seems quite self obsessed as well so it's nice to see these two girls appear so generous and personable. Like you say she's 18 and I can understand being annoyed about a stoppage.
-
Both of them incredibly erudite for two youngsters. Makes a nice change from that pathetic display from Serena a few years ago. Wonderful.
-
Both of them were great to be fair. Great advert for womens tennis.
-
Barely anything there.

Odd.

I didn't mention your personality.

You sound unhinged.

No Broja? I'd have had him in if no Adams. I suppose Redmond has been training all week so the logic is maybe he is fresher and knows what's required.
