So no different to tuning into the mens Man Utd Vs Arsenal game then

967

The feeling is mutual

Just a joke to your riposte of calling me a dickhead lar. :grin:

969

I just find the use of the word “woke” appallingly bad.

970

That’s ok then :+1:

Watched part of the game for the first time, and it’s been pleasant to watch. Seems quite a good team.

Good initiative. I didn’t get the purpose-built part though.

974

Yeh, what does ‘purpose built’ mean? Very odd.

975

From the article:

It is an important moment not just for the club but the women’s game, with Brighton on course to build the first ground in England specifically for a professional women’s team.

As opposed to sharing a stadium with another team, a multipurpose venue, etc.

Hope his mother isn’t on that hunger strike still.

Well if she is it’s probably permanent.

Just noticed that Mary Earps has won the BBC Sports Personality Of The Year:

I haven’t watched SPOTY for a long time but I think that is deserved (I actually only clicked on the link as Kenny Dalglish was receiving a lifetime award).

981

Once the short list was published, it was never going to be anyone else.
Nice to see a high profile short lister seeing right through the sham that it’s become and totally blanking it.

982

Katarina Johnson Thompson was a more deserving winner, after overcoming three years of injuries to reach the top again. But then Katarina isn’t the media darling like Earps.

It’s a weird award and no one knows really what the criteria are other than was someone part of the cultural zeitgeist that year…did they do something that made people pay attention (typically to something they don’t typically pay attention to) and talk about afterwards.

984

Ok, I had to look up what ‘zeitgeist’ means.

985

or maybe she earnt it on merit. and soft cunts everywhere cant help it but get thier knickers in a twist.

the biggest take home from this though is that it seems like we miss klopptomist to really get this place moving to be honest
