That's bollocks.......but carry on

What’s bollocks about it?

I think you’re confusing skill with strength.

 

[Trojan1962]

He’s a very odious man

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

No, it’s not.

The physicality and strength of League One/League Two players is obviously higher, as they’re men, but the skill levels are nowhere near the abilities of the players in the WSL.

It’s not really the point though. The men’s teams would likely beat any WSL side.

That doesn’t mean that women can’t play football, it just means they aren’t as physically strong.

They can be as tactically astute, skilful and expend the same effort as men, so there’s no reason that both genders can’t talk about both men and women’s football.

Utter turd of a man, full of hate. I bet he absolutely hates his life.

And Izzy Christiansen and Alex Scott seem very well liked.

Google Alex and look at her Wiki page - see the games played, goals scored, caps and honours. Then see her post playing career education. Then compare Barton's bio. He was probably doing time whilst she was getting a degree in sports journalism.

I really believe he's lost the plot now.

So wrong . Any league two team would absolutely annihilate all WSL teams . That’s in no way any disrespect to the women’s football teams but I know from a good source the under 15 boys team at city played the women’s team behind closed doors and gave them a good hiding. That’s 14 year old boys, league two professional men would beat both very comfortably just with pure physical strength and football fitness alone .

 

[callumcity]

lol.

Pretty sure Jill Scott, Lauren Hemp, Lauren James et al would run absolute rings round Barry the fucking plumber from The Ducks Breath.

There’s a history of the best womens teams getting beat by non league sides and u15 boys, I think the best of Sunday league teams would wipe the floor with them, genuinely.

I reckon I group together a gang of people I know and beat the England women.

I don’t agree with Barton though on punditry and the like, couldn’t care less.

As we know, the level somebody played at doesn’t really make any difference in pundit and co comm insight, I could collar somebody in the street and they’d likely be more insightful that Ferdinand.

I think a female boxer should challenge him to go ten rounds in the ring.
Possibly the proceeds going to a charity.

Jane Couch would still beat him and she's 55 now.
