Percy Parrot Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 first of all another massive well done to the ladies team who are rockin'. Long may it continue. Now, before I mention the P word, I will remind myself that it is a long way to go before the end of the season. But even IF the ladies are promoted- how much chance do they stand next season? The Gas Girls cruised last season and now they're bottom of the league and have really struggled against the Fulham's, Doncaster's and Charlton's of this world. Let's just hope.

Robbored Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 Personally, I'm not remotely interested in womens "football" other than from a decorative point of view. If women want to play thats fine.Similar to those women who chose to train as HGV drivers or bricklayers I suppose..... :Confused13: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbered, have you actually ever seen a womens match? The skill levels are very high (apart from the 'keepers....!) I think you'd be pleasently suprised if you did.

Cooter Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 It seems that womens football is quite big in Bristol compared to the men's football right now. Maybe City and Rovers mens teams could do with a few lessons from both Girls teams at the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Working Late Again Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 I have watched a fair bit of womens footie in my time (my girlfriend's sister plays for Fulham and England). The standard is certainly improving as each year goes by. That standard will only continue to improve if more and more girls/ladies are attracted to the game. That is why it is important for the ladies' teams to have an association with a professional club. Having watched as I say a fair bit of womens footie I would suggest that if their male counterparts showed as much commitment and enjoyment, then we would all be leaving Ashton Gate far happier than at present.

bcfc seattle Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 Well living in the land of women's football (America) I see games pretty frequently, often times the women are better players than the men. (No, I'm not saying they would beat the men, the difference in speed and stregth is too great) but they actually play as a team and have great skills. Although I think it would be bigger if I stopped thinking "boy she's hot" while watching a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
