Watson nets winner for Arsenal and other similar shite! - Spandaubaggie - 02-08-2019
It really does my box in seeing headlines like the one above on BBC sport and then clicking on the link to see them say stuff like Arsenal got an 87th minute winner v Man City thanks to a close range tap in from Helen Watson!
I'm sorry, but chucking women's football in the main football menu is just wrong. However, in this PC age it's unlikely to change.
Happy for womens football to grow, but having it alongside main football stories is currently akin to talking about a kitchen fire put out with no damage alongside 6 people being burnt to death in a house explosion. It is a growing minority sport, but artificially publiciisng it when the following is so small is just irritating.

What's more annoying is how Scottish football fixtures, leagues etc are always above them champ and below the prem. Who gives a fugg about a pub league?

Great post , I feel the same way being misled about Man City and Arsenal , so infuriating

Why would City and Arsenal be playing each other on a Thursday night to minimal fanfare? Especially as City played the night before.

It's not about being"PC" which is a facile, cheap, nasty label and anyway it's just a wasted mouse click on the report. Don't let it do yer box in.
