i like the drum noise on the replay its like a video game or something,

regarding womens football,i think the pitch needs to be smaller really but then people go PC crazy

The issue with making the pitch smaller is that people would just go crazy and call it sexist. Crazy I know, but true...

yes i know but i've watched a fair bit of womens football and apart from the usa,its like watching schoolkids playing a mans game,no harm in the facts

i would carry on about kits and why i watch alot of womens sport but i don't want to get itno a sexist argument witht he PC brigade telling me women don't use their sex appeal to get what they want

No, I agree with you. Infact, that discussion was in this very thread! Women's football is still a fledgling game (and even the US didn't look that sharp on Wednesday...), the arguments from feminists would go along the lines of saying' Women are weaker!' and 'Women deserve the same as men!' etc., despite the fact that pretty much every other sport they do less, and that's OK...but that's another argument again. 

And Women don't use sex appeal to attract viewers? How many people do you think watch Beach Volleyball for the sport?

 

(I'm not one of those people, it bores me, but I know plenty of people who watch Beach Volleyball for 'something else'...)
