I hope someone caught this on camera.I got sent off in a charity 6 a side game for slide tackling a girl in her 20s and then 2 mins later taking out a 6ft6 bloke and then standing over and threatening him Roy Keane style - I still feel bad for the girlUnfortunately for some of us the instinct never goes away
No.Just watching the highlights of the womens football on the BBC and I have a question to ask regarding the quality of the players. Do you think there are any female footballers out there who could hold their own at a professional club, say League 2 and up. I'm talking your Lucy Bronze's etc. I remember there was a story going round the internet of FC Dallas u14's beating the USA womens team 14-0 before a World Cup game.
Lee Burge picks up a pay check every weekIn the football I’ve seen, the biggest gulf in ability seems to be in goal. I think there are several female players in the WSL that could hold their own in the men’s game - just not the goalkeepers.
Allowing women in to the mens game wouldn't just kill the womens game, it would also kill the mens game.A lot of sports are allowed to be mixed up until the ages of around 10 - including Rugby Union. The gulf between men’s and women’s football is the physical side of things. Bigger humans, bigger lungs, and more muscle mass makes for an uneven playing field.
Ironically, inclusion of women into the men’s game would have the consequence of killing the women’s game in the process - which in itself is a tragedy.
If there was a demand for mixed gender football, I’d support the idea of organising this, it also solves the issue around transgender athletes too.

It wouldn't because none of them would get even close to the squads. Nothing would change.Allowing women in to the mens game wouldn't just kill the womens game, it would also kill the mens game.

They do mix in Darts and Snooker. I seem to remeber Ronnie O'Sullivan playing snooker last year while some bird (couldn't tell you her name) sat at the side and watchedWhy in things like snooker or darts is it necessary?
The bits I have seen there is a massive gulf, it’s the same in cricket Sarah Taylor one of the stars of world cricket played for Walmley who are in the Birmingham league and wasn’t outstanding, I played at the same level and was also not outstanding, but I am not being paid to play.
There are no women players that could play and compete in men's proffessional football... I like women's football too as both my girls are playing at Cov United and I have high hopes for their futureJust watching the highlights of the womens football on the BBC and I have a question to ask regarding the quality of the players.

Didnt like the sampras agassi era?Before Federer came along, men's tennis had got really dull - especially on grass. Massive serve volliers, points over in three shots at best. In contrast, the women's game still had grace. The men's game is currently, in my view, better, but Tennis does ebb and flow with the generations.
Samprass, Ivanisevic, Becker, Stich, Krajicek, Rafter, Roddick, Rusedski... all immensely boring. Even the so-called 'artists' like Edberg were batter, batter, batter.Didnt like the sampras agassi era?
Serena would still get pumped by anyone inside the top 300

The Australia National team was also beaten 7-0 by Newcastle Jets under 15s. There's plenty of examples. Its cruel to compare, that's why its probably preferable to steer clear of it.Turned into a bit of an urban myth this one. It wasn't a competitive match so much as a "scrimmage" (basically a practice session), with the women's team letting some of the FC Dallas kids join in. The FC Dallas website ended up writing it up as an actual game, which the kids supposedly 'won' 5-2, and it's been seized on by people trying to insult the women's team ever since.
What level is that? She played Grade cricket in Aus which is the highest club standard. Don't know how she got on but that's above our top level here.The bits I have seen there is a massive gulf, it’s the same in cricket Sarah Taylor one of the stars of world cricket played for Walmley who are in the Birmingham league and wasn’t outstanding, I played at the same level and was also not outstanding, but I am not being paid to play.

Federer is my favourite ever tbh, always played the game with elegance and style.Samprass, Ivanisevic, Becker, Stich, Krajicek, Rafter, Roddick, Rusedski... all immensely boring. Even the so-called 'artists' like Edberg were batter, batter, batter.
It took Federer to show you could dominate on courts other than clay without it being whack - net - volley. Agassi had the odd brilliant flourish, but he was among a morass of serve-volliers, so the points were still over quickly, brutally, swiftly.
Yea sure... That's the reason you prefer watching womens tennisFor me women’s tennis is better to watch as they can return the serves against most of the players.

not sure if any of you saw the film but an interesting watch (maybe one for the not so obvious hot babes thread)

The BBC practically ignores the EFL despite even the lowest level being better supported than women's football, it's silly reallyFive live have live commentary on the WSL the hyperbole is pretty cringy
