Crewton Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The lowlife scumbags responsible for killing the little girl in Liverpool last night. I hope they have a slow and painful death ASAP. I also hope we don't have the usual stupid f*****s talking about 'grassing'. Someone knows exactly who was involved and I hope they have a conscience.

Miggins Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I don't mind going shopping but I hate having to put everything away when I get back home. We only have a small home and finding space for the shopping is so difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mute the tv if she is on, her monotonous, booming completely bugs the hell out of me. Now Laura Woods, she's decent and her voice is lovely too!

FindernRam Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Sky now having a "player of the match" instead of "man of the match". I'm fed up with this wokery everywhere you look in the media. Even Carragher said man then immediately corrected himself. No mate! You were right first time! Its a mans game. The girls play a different game in a different league. If they want a Girl of the Game fair enough. Mucker1884, GB SPORTS, Ewe Ram and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to die on that hill? Souness is a dinosaur. Either he meant it was a game for men only, in which case, he's not a good fit for modern broadcasters or he meant that you need to be resilient to play the game, in which case he seems to lack the descriptive vocabulary required by someone whose job it is to talk about football.

Now we're delving into what SHOULD be said and what CAN be said or what IS/WAS said, It matters not a jot to me when using a term "A Mans Game" Just like when Women advertise Tissues when wiping a tear away, Why Women...because those advertising execs see Women as a weaker sex and cry more often than Men, Like the woman talking to her dogs while crying on a settee, Or a Woman explaining she's not afraid to seek help during the financial crisis, Is this right or is this wrong...who gives a $hit...not me, We have sports washing in football, We have gay/rainbow washing by advertisers at the Notting hill festival, And yet because the Englands Womens Football team won the Euro cup some women out there want to hang a man out to dry. Souness a Dinosaur? or a Man who says it as it is, You have your thoughts and rightly so and he and others have theirs Is Saudi Arabia chucking more money into Womens Golf, Nope, Are the Men golfers up in arms...nope https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/golf/60824786 Women play an integral part in sport, But until they are equally as good or better...it will always be dominated by Men, Hence "A Mans Game" Ewe Ram, maxjam and GB SPORTS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe he just used a common phrase that virtually everyone knew what he was on about. On a similar note, my contribution to this thread is people trying to tell me what to think and what I'm allowed to say (or not say). I appreciate that their opinions and beliefs might be different to mine - but they are different, not better. If I come out with a traditional phrase such as 'its a mans game' when clearly talking about not shirking tackles etc I will continue to do so.

It's just patently absurd for Souness to say what he did whilst sitting next to a woman with triple figure caps. 'Traditional' phrases fall out of use simply because the world has moved on. Old farts like me got used to 'batter' and 'third' in cricket pretty quickly. It's anachronistic to continue using them but one is free to do so.

I don't really know much about the Souness thing tbh, other than briefly reading something about it on here at the time and recall him having to apologise. Whilst referencing the comment, I was making a more general point. We all know you can't run into a crowded room and shout 'FIRE' etc and society has agreed that certain words are highly offensive. But the continuing push by a fringe minority to police language, comedy etc (and therefore thought) by taking offence at every little minor 'transgression' (as they see it) is annoying - hence my input in this thread! Having woke idiots correct you for using the term mankind instead of peoplekind for example (which ironically my spellchecker has highlighted as wrong ?) is something I object to. As I said in my previous post, 'I appreciate that their opinions and beliefs might be different to mine - but they are different, not better.' They are welcome to use whatever language it is they want to use. I shouldn't be corrected for using whatever language it is I want to use.

Are they not told to say batters? Do we have postmen, binmen, handy man , man with a van , white van man et etc.. where does it end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
