For one thing, the women succeeding seems to make people happier, rather than more nationalistic, hateful and violent! Well now we shall see!! In fairness they deserved to win ... the new manager has done wonders. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you feel there's too much bruhaha in the coming days, weeks or months over this win, just remember Jurgen Klopp's been drooling all over this tournament, and not in the way chauvinistic pigs might think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can say without fear of contradiction that the good sides - Spain, England, Germany - were considerably more watchable than Northampton and possibly most Scottish teams, except those in Glasgow and Edinburgh. I don`t think it`s necessary to compare directly to the men`s game, anymore than I would expect female Cricketers to compete against the male game; but I thought it was enjoyable on its own merits. The WSL was not very good when I saw it last year, so I`m not making that leap. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, except everybody is watching international football too, and with only a few countries on board with the "idea", it's a bad PR move when one team kneels and the other doesn't.

"After becoming interested in football as a kid, having kickabouts with his friends on the dusty streets of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Bin Laden apparently became so in love with Arsenal, he gave one of his sons a replica Gunners shirt with Ian Wright's name and number on the back." And awareness is good because it's easy for people to believe that everybody thinks like they do, and act accordingly. We need constant reminders that our world is not as simple as some would like.

It would be helpful if the reminders were not pitched by a Marxist organization (BLM) That rubs a certain portion of the planet the wrong way, thankfully.

Of course, the link between the principle of black lives mattering, and the organisation Black Lives Matter, is made far less in the UK. The only people who were making a connection were the lunatic fringe of the Tory party, or what you might call moderate Republicans. Southgate and the England team and PL players were very clear that they were taking the knee as a stance against all forms of discrimination, not because of BLM. I think black lives matter, but I`m not a member of Black Lives Matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbanezJem Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 PL prediction table - City will be affected by adapting to Haaland and Liverpool will sweep to glory with their rejuvenated strikeforce. Spurs to be the best team and be completely lovely in every way but their total of 98 points will leave them 3 behind Liverpool, but 10 ahead of City. 1 Liverpool 2 Tottenham Hotspur 3 Manchester City 4 Chelsea 5 Manchester United 6 Arsenal 7 Newcastle United 8 Aston Villa 9 West Ham Utd 10 Brighton & Hove Albion 11 Leicester City 12 Wolves 13 Leeds United 14 Everton 15 Nottm Forest 16 Crystal Palace 17 Brentford 18 Southampton 19 Fulham 20 AFC Bournemouth 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
