Take it up with the black footballer that made the documentary if you don't like diversity being discussed the woman being attacked in this clip was just promoting that show as it's her job.

Why does it even need to be said? What does moaning about players' skin colours achieve?

So do you think black people should be chosen by football teams to play because they are black, or?

she recently walked out of the Scottish Football Writers awards as she "did not like" some of the jokes the host made...

some of it is cultural as well, some families from ethnic minorities will not want their daughters running around in a pair of shorts

DAN WOOTTON: No wonder we're turning off the woke BBC in our droves when
they're using our brilliant football Lionesses to stoke racial divisions, while their
own Gary Lineker-topped First XI rich list remains exclusively white



Rather than celebrating the record-breaking victory against Norway, during
its ultra-woke coverage of the Women's Euro 2022 the next night, ashen-
faced presenter Eilidh Barbour declared soberly: 'It was an historic eight goal
victory for England last night as the Lionesses secured their place in the
quarter finals – but all starting 11 players and the five substitutes that came
on to the pitch were all white. And that does point towards a lack of
diversity in the women's game in England.'

No wonder more and more folk want to defund it.
PS: The BBC this week unveiled an entirely white top ten rich list of its own presenters!

Could well be, Bend it like Beckham made a movie about it. I haven't watched the documentary yet so don't know the conclusion of her investigation but I imagine this will be a talking point.

and asian teams have done well in top level tbh, South Korea for one in 2002, to everyone's surprise a deep run at world cup, thanks to miracle worker Guus Hiddink, for whom they built a statue

with stars like Young-Pyo Lee, Ji-Sung Park whom had decent careers afterwards in europe
