If any team had a female player they would automatically have the **** taken, but it would create a media circus, with the ultimate outcome being that the league would be seen as being more mickey mouse than the FAI could ever hope to achieve on their own.

Of course they can - if they leave their sports bras in the dressing room!
and there kits....:DQuote:

That's true. I was at a Bundesliga match over the weekend and there a much higher percentage of the crowd were female than we get in the EL.Quote:

back to topic - are you telling me that mia hamm couldnt play for drogheda united? you're havin a laugh. although why would she when she is the third biggest earner after tiger woods and coby in the us now
you're the same ****s that watch the olympics 100m women and reckon you lazy fat *******s could beat them all
Well no, no she couldn't really, if you think about it. Firstly she's now too old, and has retired. Secondly as a woman, and not a particularly bulky one, she wouldn't be too well able to stand up to the physical abuse a player, particularly a forward, gets in this league from big burly blokes. Sorry, but that's basic physics. And thirdly, even the free-spending Drogs wouldn't even approach being able to afford her.
This takes nothing away from the fact that she is one of the best footballers who ever played.
But that second point is why I reckon the thread to be fairly farcical from the beginning, and again, sorry to have to pour cold science on some laudable sexual politics. Some of the players, and particularly some centre halves, are absolute animals when you play against them.
As to the immature posts, you have a point there, but I would recommend that when you call someone a moron you spell it right - looks bad is all. :D
Who's Coby? We're not all on first name terms with him/her. ;)
i can only assume he means koby bryant - superstar basketball player.Quote:
