Local arguments for or against women's football are the very same that were floated around in the UK on the start-up of the Women's FA. Now WFA is live on Free-to-Air most weekends as an afternoon option for the lead up to a FA broadcast. They have it on in pubs a clubs, under pay-per-view regimes so they are actually handing over cash to watch it!
I was in the UK recently and the WFA was attracting crowds of 15000 for typical games and it was OK to watch. In fact the lack of staging for frees, or badgering and begging to referees, made it a game that seemed to flow better than the men's game!
With the WFA the same obvious differences appear, the power in kicks and brute force, but I wouldn't say speed was a big difference, and the girls I watched were very agile and well coordinated, perhaps even better than the men at the finer subtle skills.
The men could learn a thing or two from the girls about team-work and structures, I suppose it's the old multi-tasking argument!
Its an awful brand. They cannot kick. Will be extinct in 5.
We were very poor today. Bolton's coaching has to come under the microscope. We left the corridor open, they flogged us through it. No tag on Zorko. Playing JSOS down back? Are we tanking? I don't get it.
I think next year will be important year for Bolts and his team. If we start using the corridor more and score, then all good. That will mean that he was indeed developing the defensive aspect first. Without Casbolt, we actually might be better up forward as we can develop some players with better leading pattern talent. Our delivery into the forward line is awful at the moment though. Culprits like Graham, Kerridge and co. don't help this. If we continue into 2019 averaging such a low goal ratio, then I believe he will fax the axe like his predecessors. This is not good for our club as we seem to continue to turn over coaches.
Yes indeed. They were two howlers. Then again, that's the same number of errors that are in the title of this thread. Thought he did all right after that.
