    FA allows sex discrimination

    https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-to-lay-new-law-to-halt-the-march-of-gender-neutral-toilets-in-buildings The opposite is the likely direction of travel. All new facilities which serve the public are required to provide single sex toilets etc. This is statutory. The current...

    FA allows sex discrimination

    It is certainly a victory for sex based rights. Single sex spaces are lawful and nobody can identify into the provision for the opposite sex. Whether they have a GRC or not has been ruled irrelevant as the judgment today specifically says that where sex rights are concerned, e.g the right to...

    FA allows sex discrimination

    Now waiting for the FA and other sporting authorities to catch up with what the law actually says, and protect the sex based rights of women. Maybe they will have to be dragged through the courts before that happens but it must.

    Player Ratings v Hull

    Has anybody pointed out that Sheaf should have stopped the player who made the cross field pass from which they scored? He was beaten twice in his attempts to stop the player.

    Womens football

    Why are Scottish premier higher than the Championship? Why is Champions league higher than the Championship even when no British teams are involved and there's loads of domestic football? So many questions

    Posters naming Sheaf in their predicted / desired line up is really baffling.

    Long awaited return to the Premier League.

    I went to this exhibition last week in Oxford. I spun the wheel of fortune and got 87. I then asked the fortune machine which dealt cards if CC will gain promotion in 2025. It dealt me 3 cards ...

    Middlesbrough - got punched in the face by a nasty bruiser who wanted my (and 12 y.o. sister's) scarf. I was 16, female, 5ft, and 7st. Footnote - the b@stard didn't get the scarf :) Leeds - dirty Leeds. Fans still think it's 1972. Sunderland - Inlaws there. Watch their faces when you say you...

    The whole thing is a nightmare if you are trying to get a wheelchair through to the middle blocks in that stand.

    Supporters forum - 13 March

    Is the club actively trying to encourage fans to get to their seats before the KO? The congestion in the concourses is made worse by lots of fans just standing around. Now, I know some are entering or queueing or drinking or using the facilities. The rest have every right to stand where they...

    Dovin Milan Thomas Kitching Bidwell Grimes Allen Rudoni Sakamoto Simms EMC Subs Collins Lati Binks Dasilva Torp Eccles Sheaf Haji BTA Allen deserves to start as he gives us greater ability to control the passing and the tempo than Eccles. We need to deny Oxford possession and move the ball...

    David Thompson. A few good games but still overrated.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Queens Park Rangers Match Thread - Tuesday 11th Feb

    I love that the majority assume the captain from the last few games, including a 5 game winning run, is going to be dropped. Consider, this is not only a tactical decision but a man-management/squad morale decision. Some players, not just Allen, might be unimpressed. I would tread carefully if I...

    Road closures

    Disabled passenger in my car. Not an option. But loads of people last night thought they could park near the exit, have a drink in the Anecdote or casino then just push into queues of cars that had been waiting since the end of the game. We saw loads walk back to cars once they started to move...

    Road closures

    Stuck in car park A for an hour. Travelled back to Dudley knowing full well by the time we got there the M6/M5 junction would be closed with long diversion. Home as the church clock midnight bells were ringing. If I wasn't retired I wouldn't bother.
