I am yet to be convinced that smooozing the media is a better approach than banning them altogether, ambushing them at fan's forums and using drunken home videos to communicate with the fans is the best way to go but time will tell....😏


😂
Now you mention it I think they should set up an account on here to argue with the fans as well.

Quoted from Heisenberg


Arsenal are the only ones. Don’t be fooled. Their girl’s team get great attendances - undoubtedly - but they’re the only ones.

Women’s football needs binning before the next generation of schoolgirls realise that this generation have got it wrong. Just because girls CAN play football, doesn’t mean they should.

Girls playing football, rugby and cricket, not to mention boxing, is an abomination.


Next you’ll be telling us that women shouldn’t have the vote, university places, legal recognition and the right to own property.

I get “it’s all about opinions” but when does an opinion become misogynistic? Clearly you struggle with dividing both.

Are you not impressed by Hume? Seems to me he’s been good this season. Also Warren looks like he’s settling a bit better now?



I'd agree with this Warren seems to have settled now and looks a lot better  Hume has come on leaps and bounds.

Heisenberg's post smacks more than a tad of being misogynistic.

Sport is sport, not just restricted to gender, ability or wealth. Football is not just an elite game just for blokes. Some folk are living in the dark ages but let’s not go there.

Hopefully the club have a plan for all parts of our community who want to play for GTFC.


I had an uncle who once played for Red Star Belgrade.

Appreciate women’s football isn’t for everyone, and the standard at various levels not great - but - there’s an opportunity for girls now that perhaps wasn’t there before, there’s engagement in terms of physical exercise, a bond with team mates, not to mention engagement in community with various local clubs. Can’t be a bad thing??

Furthermore , as women’s football grows - it develops, the standard goes up.. and if a young girl who loves football at age 6,7, 8 or whatever has the opportunity to pursue it - or any sport - then I say go do it.

With regards to Grimsby Town - it’s also good to see the women’s side get more mentions/highlighted, as well as the aforementioned reasons - I suspect women’s football will grow and grow.. and if there’s a youngster wanting to start now,  good luck to them ..
