The BBC’s coverage of the Women’s World Cup and Women’s football in general!
First off, if women want to play football, I’m all for it. Keeps them fit, keeps them slim. Yeah sure, I know they’re all lesbians, but it might still encourage more girls to stay in shape. That’s good for everybody.
But this, this endless campaign by the BBC (and similarly shit news organisations) to make Women’s football ‘a thing’ really boils my piss! They have made it their agenda to shame anybody who doesn’t outwardly announce their allegiance to the cause. We’ve suffered through a campaign of trickery for years now with articles saying “Liverpool sign star striker!” Huh? Who could it be, we all wonder. Oh… It’s actually Liverpool WOMEN’S team. The slimy cunts will happily pretend it’s about the men’s game in order to fool people into reading the articles. THEN they have the gall to announce that Women’s football has had an X% amount increase in traffic on site, despite knowing full well its all based on subterfuge!
We have to suffer from women pundits on the men’s game, irrespective of knowledge or experience, we’ve seen Souness be hounded by the press and, of course, Twitter for conflating football with the men’s game. Heaven’s forbid!
And now as we move fully into their cup final we’re treated to such wonderful articles about how Alexa is sexist because ‘she’ assumes questions about football are about the men’s game…i.e the game that peiople actually give a shit about. Don’t worry thigh because ‘academic’ Joanne Rodda, in a fit of panic over having nothing better to do with her time, ‘alerted the BBC’ to the problem and they’ve reached out to Amazonn for comment.
The next article states that if our brave lionesses win, it’ll be ‘the first time England have won the trophy since 1966.’ Hold the fucking phone. Not ‘a trophy’. ‘THE trophy’. THE TROPHY SINCE 66. Get fucked with that. Not the same trophy, not the same sport. And if they win, you can be damned sure everyone will get criticised for singing ’60 years of hurt!’
Then William gets scolded for not going over and the Government get moaned at for not making a bank holiday to celebrate a tournament that nobody gives a fuck about.
And then will come the pissing pay debate.
This one I blame at the door of the BBC. They lost the rights to show any genuine football and have spent what feels like the last 10 years doing nothing but artificially trying to increase its popularity by any means necessary.
The BBC are cunts. There’s a shock for you all.
