Robbie Fowler in the dog house

The BBC get their knickers in a twist about a football pundit calling two players "GIRLS" were they afraid that some of their highly paid staff would try abusing them ??

the bbc are obsessed with womens football at the moment, pushing it every chance they , tryin to convince us all lts great and showing live games when really its piss poor.

Considering the fact that they and England are years behind a lot of other countries like Brazil, Japan, Sweden, Germany etc due to a lot of sexism in the game and have only just become fully professional, I don't think that should be a surprise to anybody, I don't watch women's football but its the 21st century, and you can't deny the success the Women's League/England ladies has had since the Olympics, I mean they got great numbers in the gate at Fratton Park last night, nowt wrong with it and fair play to'em, don't like don't watch.

Given that there are quite a few instances of naivety among the lesser teams, I have to say that I do rather enjoy it. France v England recently was very entertaining if not the result we would want, I frequently see good shape and pattern and our girls seem to have a damn sight more go and ideas in them than any England men's performance I've seen recently.

Yup I'm finding BBC sport very poor at the moment. They introduced a new 15 minute programme yesterday afternoon called 'sports day'. The whole show was focused on women's sport .

This the programme with Rachel Atherton on; about time there was some recognition. We have some quality MTB downhillers both men and women but Rachel winning the world champs and world cup series in the same season is brilliant.
 
Listening to the Arsenal Napoli game while driving and they described Arsenal as sometimes 'having too many Chief Executives and not enough clock punchers'

Made me think they've probably got a big PC translation book for old sayings.

You know me I call a tool with a sharp-edged, typically rectangular, metal blade and a long handle, used for digging or cutting earth, sand, turf, etc a tool with a sharp-edged, typically rectangular, metal blade and a long handle, used for digging or cutting earth, sand, turf, etc.

Quite right! I'm looking forward to the upcoming International Housekeeping Championships and next year we have Extreme Nagging.

Unfortunately not. I sprained my wrist whilst training for the cushion-scattering competition.

Sprained wrist; I understand. You need to get out more and meet some women.

What angers me is the lack of bids for bugger live games. BBC are spineless with sport. They'd rather give Gayem Norton a big fat salary than get a decent panel on motd or bid for the whole F1 season.

Apparently Auntie spends more on Hansen's salary than it invests in covering Scottish football. Regardless of thoughts on the quality of its football, that is still a rather depressing priority.
