No. The game is improving massively every year with same sized pitches and goals and balls as men. Just because it’s always been that way it doesn’t mean it’s for the best and you are comparing completely different sports. But if you want to do that, hurdles were adjusted for women to reflect their physical difference from men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they were as you can’t have a race with obstacles that are insurmountable for some of the contestants. I watch a lot of women’s football and a normal sized pitch is absolutely fine.

This includes U23 games as this covers much of the first team squad. The only non-Bristol City First Team Football that gets a good level of discussion is Bristol Rovers and this is treated differently to other threads with every new discussion about them put into one single thread which many people entirely ignore; as is easy with a single thread. That's an alternative to a separate forum: merge all women's football chat into a single easily ignored thread. Keep cluttering up the board with women's football threads and they will all go the same way as this has. Segregate them off and the very small number of people who have an interest can talk about it to their hearts' content without the complaints that they are cluttering up the main forum. If someone started posting loads of threads about Yeovil would those be allowed to stand unmerged? It's football chat which covers everything football related. If it doesn't interest you just ignore it. Really not that difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone started posting loads of threads about Yeovil would those be allowed to stand unmerged? That's absolute rubbish. In Football Chat we talk about a lot of stuff not directly City-related, off the top of my head; England and other home nations TV games not involving us Showpiece finals Broader issues in football such as financial fair play, VAR, etc Football in the news such as the demise of Bury/Bolton Big transfers not involving us Controversies not involving us It's says a lot about those objecting to discussing women's football in the main football chat area, that they do not object to any of above topics, which have far less to do with our own club than a group of players wearing City shirts with City badges, who happen not to have penises. It's 2019 and the world is moving on. Keep up and get over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Keep cluttering up the board with women's football threads" I've had a quick look through the first five pages of this forum, and there is precisely one thread about women's football (this one) - I'd say that was easy enough to avoid!
