They clearly have been shits to someone and now it pay-back time.
Name me one decent male official? So you admit then, you don't think women can do the job because they are women.Ticket For Schalke said:Mëtal Bikër said:The "decision" or her performance during the match (good or bad) is irrelevant in this.
If she had had a 100% accurate game, they'd still call her useless because she is a woman. If Massey became the greatest referee in the world statistcally by FIFA, she's still just a woman and is useless.
That is the reason for the furore. Not that they were critical of a woman, they were critical because she IS a woman, doing a job most men have filled. Plus the fact that people disagree entirely with their view stating she did have a good game, certaintly no worse than any other assistant referee. But that doesnt matter, 'she's a woman, so that automatically makes her useless'.
If she was a poor assistant referee the focus should be on the fact that she is crap. NOT that the reason she IS crap, is because she's a woman. I realise i have mentioned this point four times now but it seems to be the stickler as none of the Gray defenders have managed to pick up on it yet, instead drumming up wild defences for their behaviour, which as has been proven, (the methods and motives irrelevant at this point) was not a solitary affair.
Name me one decent female official?
Ticket For Schalke said:Optimus Prime said:Are you trying to say that the Nation refers to women as 'it' - that's a pretty bold claim to make, and I'm not sure its particularly accurate either.
'it' being the video that was leaked that seen him off the burton one, someone had it in for him, shame for the girl but she's a munter anyway, just like gray acknowledged, shes had her 5 mins of fame. how the f.a put her in a premier league game then her next one was a league 2 baffles me it really does.
Ticket For Schalke said:Mëtal Bikër said:Yes, let's criticise the person who is exposing these two mysogynists for who they really are instead of the men themselves.
The poor guys, this is a smear campaign against two hard working, decent sexists!
It's not right!
For those banging on about 'Freedom of Speech', there is a proviso to such a luxury. It's called moral responsibility. These two showed none of it and it's clear the Sian Massey comments weren't an isolated incident.
Some people really are whiter than white on here, i've said it many a time, the majority of woman that i know do infact know feck all about football.
what happens if someone said "does Micheala Tabb know how many points a black ball is worth" get off your high horse. she got one decison right, which being in the correct posistion no excuse not too, but she got one horrendously wrong.
