Yes, it's great result and I hope it inspires many more woman and girls to get involved with the game but why bring the war into it? FYI the allies won WW2, not the English. The "Two world wars and one world cup" trope is just crass. Another great thing about the women's campaign is the lack of such nonsense or bad behaviour from the fans. twosmoke300, SmokinWaffle, horriblemercedes and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazoli Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Why should they be paid the same as men? from what I saw the level of football played was nowhere near the standard of the male game. Agreed with the references to the war, it's pathetic really, they played well to win and congrats to the Women's team but let's not get carried away now.

This comparison to war stuff reminds me why I can't stand football or most of it's fans.

In most normal jobs women can perform as good as job as men but sport is different. OK unless we have direct competition between the sexes people will always argue, so let’s take athletics where you can compare performances without direct competition. Is there any world record for women that’s longer/ faster/ higher … than the men’s equivalent? No, none. Equestrian is about the only sport where make and female compete and then the horse ( of either sex it must be said) does most the work. People are deluded by the hype but women professional footballers are probably well paid compared to males of similar ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsinthewelder Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 The shockingly low £20k salary one of them has seemed plenty for kicking a ball around, can't see why they pay the blokes any more than that really 😛 cobblers, Andyrew, myglaren and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Jetter Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Heard that car hire in Ireland has come down a bit. Avis still quoting over £1k for a week, but the site I booked through a while back has dropped from £800 to £550! Cancelled the booking, got a 25% bonus on the deposit credit, promptly re-booked. Easiest £250 I've ever gained. Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
