As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

But it's classic BBC - everyone has to be equal, and 'minority groups' get preferential treatment as they're too scared to been seen to be excluding them. Positive discrimination, and all that.
I cant stand leftists & there double standards. Womens football promotion is really just a form of chivalry & female worship.
I can't stand Tories and their "I'm alright Jack" attitude but what the fuck has that got to do with bird's football? Karl Marx wrote many a treatise on Women's football, as I recall.
They cover it because a) it's cheap and b) the most popular participation sport for young girls.

Anyhow this woman would scream even if they tried to move her gently onto the stretcher, they managed it after loads of pain killers and airlifted her to hospital, she was out a couple of hours later with no injuries and they suspected that maybe it was concussion
The other woman was a goalkeeper and had collided with a forward, again airlifted to hospital and again out in a couple of hours, nothing wrong with her and was playing the next weekend.
At that rate if as many women start playing football on a sunday morning as men then they will need a couple of thousand helicopters to keep up
Oh, and they all toe punt the ball
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahaha
There are anatomical reasons on why they can't properly side-foot shots and passes

As for the BBC, think their promotion of the womens game has more to do with it being one of the few sports they can bid for the television rights without facing stiff competition from Sky or BT!
I don't give a shit about the women's team. Any female that plays from a young age and is committed can expect to be playing in the upper echelons of the game come adulthood such is the lack of committed participation. I only give a shit about the youth team to the extent that it will impact on the first team in the future.
Why can't woman just invent their own sports instead of constantly trying to muscle in on ours .
To date i can think of NO sport that a woman has ever invented unless it is an adaption of an existing mens game
or been better than a man at any sport .
I dont want woman in football or at football,even though I have taken them from time to time !
Woman have their place and their uses but lets be serious if they didnt have tits and a cant we wouldnt even talk to them !
