Could be autocorrect, but I'm not so sure. I mean, we are talking about a highly creative, intellectual fan base whose literary skills know no bounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTed Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I’ve just been told their women’s team beat our women’s team 0-1. Can I assume they’re probably lauding it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I assume they’re probably lauding it up? Probably. It's the biggest win in their history. In fairness, their women's team has always been better than ours. That's on us for never really investing in it until recently. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 As @Greenfly sort-of said above, they deserve the victory and it is to our shame that we let them have the run of the city in women's football for literally decades. No one else to blame but ourselves; I have quietly seethed for years at seeing them divisions above us, and frankly good for them for taking the women's game more seriously than we ever did. I'm very glad to see that we have started to put that right, but clearly we're not there yet. We'll get there, and they will resume their rightful position one day.

useless Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 I thought we were the better team yesterday and can be disappointed that we lost, although a lot of that was probably down to the fact that they had so many injuries, they only managed to name two of the nine allowed subs. If we can manage to survive this season then I imagine we will overtake them in the coming seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't give two hoots about the women's team. I really couldn't be less interested and I don't mean that in a bad way. I just think women's football is so painfully poor compared to the mens game that I find it unwatchable. The fact they are so happy about their women's team beating ours shows how starved they are for any kind of victory over us. As for me though, I'm not sure I'll lose too much sleep over it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly my thoughts. They would celebrate their under tens beating ours like they won the champions league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Follyfoot Posted November 16, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted November 16, 2020 Sorry to interrupt the Greasy Love-in on here tonight.To acknowledge his existence is tolerable.To say he played well, is ok - as long as it’s just a brief mention, and as long as he was outstanding.To eulogise about him on here is deeply offensive. Tantamount to talking all night to your wife about an ex girlfriend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 I don't think there's anything wrong with being happy that a women's team has won, if we'd have beaten them some of our fans would be gloating as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, saw that thread last night and there seems to be a very slowly growing albeit begrudging appreciation of JG However, there are still those diehard noses who would rather cut it off than see a dvb score a winner in the final and shout down those who give him credit.The sad thing is, many of them are old enough to know better. They're probably not kids but more than likely middle aged gammons who live in the past, getting all misty eyed about the romance of 70s and 80s matchdays, including when it got naughty with the zulus (the amount of noses claiming to be members is laughable)...but above all, they must hate everything Vile and so their blinkers go back on. I could be wrong of course... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely this analogy is more akin to them talking about Bellingham, an ex player who left them for something better as fast as his legs would carry him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong of course... the one or 2 of the more sensible ones stand out a mile away...the majority can't stand him, can't stand the plaudits he's getting. "is carragher related to him or something?" was my personal favourite they genuinely loathe him...it's really, really bizarre. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
