I stopped after that to be honest because you’re either (a) deliberately being antagonistic or (b) you’re completely irrational.

They don't. they really don't. The numbers are out there.

I've never been in a stadium where there are more women than men. I'm at matches every single week. As it happens, my club are entering a women's team into the League of Ireland this month, guarantee you there'll be more guys there supporting than girls.

You are the sexist. The main narrative has been that professional men know more about their respective sports than a female would. You have just said that men only care about women in the bedroom.

Grow up.

What about all the male pundits on rhythmic gymnastics etc? Because its a female sport and all the pundits are mostly male?? They can't ever have participated.

Should they all be fired?

Should no men be allowed comment on female sports? I mean they have different bodies. What do they know?

Female sports get only 4% of media coverage. And this is leading to the influence of male minds against women.

Sports can be used for good or evil.

The world of football is a hub of racism and misogyny.

I honestly think the sports people must hate the fans they have.

Because women have no interest in sport.......

Such is the lucrative nature of the female audience, football would be free all day long if the same amount of women were into football as men.

That is why sports subscriptions cost a fortune while there is not one single example of women having to subscribe to any channels to watch what they love!!! (apart from netflix etc obviously)

There are plenty of sports where the gender of the pundit is completely irrelevant, tennis, olympics etc....unfortunately football it is not one of them such is the gulf in ability and understanding....it is like having someone who can barely speak the language on....

Never heard of football hooliganism? facism in football?

You have no f##king idea what you are one about....

The sport is played in probably 80% every city or town on the planet, many cities have hundreds of clubs, thousands of players.. most city streets have seen football action....by young boys in particular...it is the most played professional sport on the planet...it is the most watched sport on the planet...and all you can see is the tiny percent of negativity....

Typical feminist, speaking with authority on something you barely understand and calling anyone who disagrees as sexists....it's infantile.

Just so we're clear, is this another one of your hilarious jokes?

Ever hear of Make A Wish, hospital visits, soft toys raining from the stands for needy fans?

I have no idea if you are trolling or whether your idiocy is worthy of pity.

Either way, your contribution has been sub par.

Yeah, pretty much this. So ignorant but cocksure with it, ironically.

Noticed there was no response from that poster to the multiple posts saying that men attend female sports more then females do. Just silence.

Sorry i have a life ....and don't really value arguments and opinions online so much i have to respond to prove my point. I don't have to win ...or be the strong correct one. I dont mind losing or being beaten ..i am female.
Lack of male ego

Men go to oggle women really in female sports dont they?

That is really the ONLY reason to watch. I mean ..its not like women are as strong as men or play to as high a level as men and could easily be great sports pundits.

Bye guys!

Please no ....Katie Taylor never got the same kind of love as Mc Gregor did from men. It was women who loved her. Still do.

She never got the same chances a man would in her place.

Also apparently she could never comment on boxing because she isn't as strong as a man and never boxed at the same level. So some media pundit with a degree from UCD is far more qualified so long as he is a man.

Lies. Again. Katie was unanimously loved. By everyone.

McGregor is and has been the embodiment of a polarizing character.

Also Ms Taylor is awfully monotone unfortunately which doesn't translate well to broadcasting gigs.

And mcgregor is still loved ...and respected.

Women would not get away with a quarter of the stuff he got away with before people thought hmm he is acting like a brat. And there are still people who love him.

That is sexism.

Not a problem. A couple of voice lessons will change it. Its a skill like anything else.

Every professional radio and tv broadcaster will have had to have had the same lessons anyway.

Beckham had lessons.

Sorry about that

It doesn't matter anyway. Broadcasting is a skill both men and women can be trained in.

Honestly any one would be better than listening to Steve "Fletch, Fletch, Fletch"McManaman all night...or anyone with a scouser accent commentating on a match

McGregor is a terrible person but the main reason the media loved him was his trash talk was really good.

I don't really care what your sexuality is, my issue is that you are talking complete bollox.

You never answered my question about Sian Massey by the way. Do you think she can do her job, or would you like to see a man do it instead?

You cared enough to turn yourself into a homophobe, in a futile and desperate attempt to resurrect your losing argument... unfortunately, it didn't quite have the impact you were hoping for. Perhaps it is a more effective strategy when you're slagging someone off down in your local pub or in the bookies?? :pac:

That last part is two questions, actually, not one... and I've already answered. But I'll go again.

Do I think Sian Massey is good at her job? Yes/no/maybe... who cares? It's irrelevant - as I've already stated.

Would I like to see a man doing her job instead?

Yes, absolutely I would... And not because I have anything against Sian Massey or women in general. But because it's men's professional football, so I would give men preferential treatment in their own sport.

And I wouldn't feel even the slightest bit guilty about this either, because there would be nothing even remotely sexist about it.

Anybody who doesn't want to listen to a pundit due to the fact that shes female is a sexist. Theirs no rules to state that a woman isn't allowed be a pundit on male sport.

Horsesh*t...

There is nothing sexist about favouring men in men's sport... It's not the same as 99.9% of other industries in society. It is a somewhat unique industry, which openly forbids women from participating. (and is not deemed sexist in doing so)

There is a complete lack of logic and common sense in your argument.

The reason you cannot see this, is because like so many people in society you have been brainwashed into thinking that anything that excludes one sex or the other, must be automatically sexist by default... but this is simply not always the case!

This is one of those unique areas, where it is perfectly acceptable to favour one sex over the other. There is nothing unfair about it. It's completely natural.

Homophobe? I'm not in any way homophobic. Or maybe, like "sexist" it's just another word you don't understand.

I said your rabid desire to exclude a beautiful competent woman so as to maintain the sanctity of a men only environment sounded a bit gay to me, and it does.

I said it half joking, but only half!;)

I know, it's because you prefer it to be a men only environment - you've said it many times.

It's the very dictionary definition of sexist. Whether you feel guilty or not about it i could really give a shít. But it is what is regardless of how you feel.

What your saying is very sexist as you are not just favouring men in men's sport, you are saying their should be no female pundits on mens football so you are very clearly making a judgement based on a persons sex.

Where does it say women are forbidden from participating in punditary? I think your letting your imagination run away from you and still failing to realise that a football player and a pundit are two different occupations. And the whole one doesnt exist without the other is not relevant in the real world.

Sick of token women on sports like soccer.



The main reason is, beside the fact they are only there for political correctness reasons , how can I take the opinion of a woman on premier league football when a woman has never played the game at that level.
And before some women cries about sexism, I wont listen to a man who has never played at the top level either.

dont give me the rubbish that women play football and have their own league, world cup etc, its not the same level.
