This morning

::

“I said we had our game back, it’s the kind of football I remember playing in.”

“It was a throwback and I think our game will be better for it.”

Graeme Souness addresses his ‘man’s game’ comments on yesterday’s action.

When you watch football played by women on the TV, do you ever hear the word "women" or "womens" said?

I don't watch it but I'd take a guess that it's used endlessly.

Am I right?

Look it’s simple womens football is not the same as mens football

Look how bent out of shape women on here get when trans man is competing against a woman and how unfair it is

You can’t bloody have it both ways

Let the men play the men and the women play the women .

who said otherwise? That is not the issue at all


All Souness had to say was that the physical game is back, no need for the word men at all given it is a sport played by both and the rules are the same in mens and womens football....are they not?

Then compromise. When football is on the TV for a certain sex then if the mention of the names or a term of that sex is uttered then that person gets called out and cancel culture comes after them and their job.

Then I think we're all happy.

I don't want to cancel anyone, but if that's what you want go for it.

But skiing is a sport, and they always differentiate between the men and womens slalom and downhill.

Everyones getting their knickers in a twist over a saying that's been around since football began..

Absolutely ridiculous.

Has anyone suggested otherwise?

I'm not sure if you're being deliberately obtuse here or you really don't understand what the issue is

The issue is, women thinking that because they won a championship they are suddenly better or know more than a man talking about a man’s game.

Again no one said the female pundit knew more than the male pundit, can you point out who said this? as you seem to be reading things that do not exist


The issue is respect, plain and simple

They should try respecting a man that had a great career infootball and has forgotten more than most know about mens football

Woman’s football is not in the same league as mens football so the sense of out rage is laughable.

I think that’s about it ..


The only real similarity that I can see is that they both have the SAME rules.

Can't believe I'm having to speak in the defence of a former Liverpool player.

This hurts.

Just to show you that the term "A man's game" is a term that's been around for years. Here's a very funny little scene from Rising Damp.

well who recently became european champions

men or the women's team?


based on that i'd say they have every right to include some female representation in the football shows




maybe if scottish women's football would improve a lot more, maybe then Souness would change his mind on this topic
