That quote you refer to there is from me and I was referring specifically to those situations where the women's game is referred to as if it is completely interchangeable with the men's game. Claiming Ellen White is going to break Wayne Rooney's or Alan Shearer's international scoring records is a stretch for me. The women's game is a popular sport in its own right, it doesn't need out of context comparisons with the men's game to further it's popularity or justify the amount of exposure it's getting.Where have I said I am offended by it?
This is the problem, a lot of people like to draw their own simple conclusions, they draw their own simplistic stereotypes about people. People can say what they like, they can say I said something when I never said it, and genuinely think it's true.
Well guess what, I hope England women win, even though I am not massively invested in it. I am perfectly happy for women's football to evolve and improve, and fully expect it to.
Find someone else to hate (J.wolfie and wonderboyo), even if a popular Moderator is trying to stir it up and accuse me of things I never said.
Why not try and have a go at those posters on the other thread about the Lionesses who feel same as me? Draw your backward conclusions there too if you like............
"this weird passive-aggressive levelling up agenda that the media seems to have with women's sport, or the traditionally male sports of football and cricket, does nothing to further their cause."
