Spanish FA President Luis Rubiales | Resigns (p 34)

[Eccles Blue]

I'd say that the female players and staff involved would be best to pass any judgement on whether he has a misogynistic view on women.

So if they'd prefer it that he resigned then he should resign.

Well they’ve started the ball rolling (pardon the pun) by practically resigning themselves i.e. saying they won’t play for Spain again until he goes.
After reading about some of the things he’s done in the past I get the impression he thinks he’s untouchable.
It isn’t a storm in a teacup though. It’s a raging great tsunami over Spain’s football credentials by this person.

Why doesn’t everyone kick off with men when they do it to other men? Each of these instances were unexpected plants on the kisser from one man to another who didn’t know it was coming:

And they received very little media attention and never got a mention on here.



That’s^ just one of those celebratory football kisses that you see every week. So why do we treat men differently in this situation than we are the female player? This recent one from the women’s WC was less of a proper kiss than all those above.

Because it wasn’t two colleagues. It was between a boss and their subordinate for a start.

You're the President of a National FA. Your team has just won the World Cup. A few minutes after the game ended you are so pumped up and in a state of euphoria that your emotions get the better of you, and after a player hugs you round the waist, you put your arms around her and give her a smacker. And people want to take his livelihood off him? Call me old fashioned but, Fucking Bollocks.

I wouldn’t call you old fashioned. I’d call you a fucking caveman and recommend you read Seb’s OP and subsequent posts and maybe you’ll learn something.

Read the OP. It sounds like it was the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

You’re not old fashioned just somebody who probably needs to have an eye kept on around women.

If the men's team won the world cup, would he have kissed the captain?
Case closed.

If they were European, probably yes
