Mixed teams could it/ will it happen

[mikemcfc]

Doubt it, the genetics are too heavily weighted in favour of the lads. How many women would make it into the average XI? 1? Not enough. Can't think of a mixed sex sport where there isn't some form of handicap.

exactly, the reason here will never be for anything sexist, or any politically incorrectness you could dream up.
this question reminds of an interview of John McEnroe by a what I'll just say as an ill-informed? uneducated? starry-eyed? female reporter.
They were talking about Serena Williams and John said that she was the greatest female player of all time.
The reporter basically said, "female? why isn't she the greatest tennis player of all time?"
John said something like that if Serena was on the men's tour she wouldn't be in the top 700.
loads of in the know agreed and he wouldn't, rightly so with all due respect, apologize.
that's the reality of the differences.
regardless of skill level, woman playing 90 minutes at pace in the premier league against men?
not gonna happen.

It worked fine for the soccer aid game,the women held their own,it'll never happen in the prem because the FOC's in the suits wouldn't let it,several of our womens team could play with us,it won't happen anyway,too much misogine(sp) to let it happen

Several of our Women's team could play with us?

You can't be serious, lol.

Horse shit the women could play with our men and it’s misogyny :-)

they couldnt compete against men at that physical level,'''but''' it would not surprise me in the slightest if the FA or whoever brings in a rule sometime that every side must include 2/3 woman in the starting 11

i agree and these are the kinds of scenario's you should not bring up cus someone is gonna get wind of it and the bright idea that this should be pursued in the interest of gender fairness and challenge it. which brings me to a quote that I've heard "political correctness is not a substitute for common sense"

I can't think of a better way of bringing the game as we know it into disrepute! It will vacillate between slapstick and farce. I watch the men from CBL3 and the women over the road. Long may the Ashton Road prevail and keep 'em separate.

Honest question here Take the best women’s team in the world what level of English football would they hold their own?
IMHO Conference would just be about right

To answer the OP Never
