  1. It's 1 day out of 365 when some people choose to recognise women. There should be equality regardless of background, race, gender, etc. Having an International Women's Day doesn't stop the push for equality in any other sphere. Also, the difference between a woman and a man is demonstrated in pay parity. My mate is working class and earns as much as people who went to public school, if he was a woman it's likely that he wouldn't. Sure there's less opportunity for working class men than middle or upper, but they're still men and have won the gender lottery. And if they're in the boardroom, they're likely to be white, straight and able bodied too. There's loads of work to be done, but having a day where you recognise women doesn't stop that work, nor does it detract from anyone else. Some journalist may well use it as a way to self-promote, but their behaviour isn't representative of the majority, nor the core ideals behind it. They're just journalists, not spokespeople
  2. Going off social media, the papers, the boardrooms, the schools, the sports fields, it appears we can't. Don't worry though, it's straight white able-bodied christian man day for the next 364 days
  3. Would have voted Benitez if I thought it was possible. Went Moyes because we're about his level, he definitely an upgrade on McClaren and some of the other options are terrifying and I didn't want to click the radio button by their name in case it made it happen.
  4. What, like caught downloading adult movies at a Travellodge on the company credit card?
  5. What the fuck are you using that's sub 3G? Dial Up?!
  6. and on International Women's Day too.
  7. Oh shit, I just thought, what's Lee Clark up to these days? "ee's a fahkin' jawdeee, dees cahnts'll fahkin' larrhve 'im as dare fahkin' gaffa"
  8. Still a more optimistic future than with the Catholic church.
  9. Only because they'll be doing research for their doctorate/doing a Johnny Cash-esque tour of Prisons to promote their new album. Hashtag pushy parent
  10. That's something me and my lass have spoken about for the future; feigning religion to make sure the kid gets into a good school. Totally hypocritical, but I don't care as long as little Bravado & Comedy get the best education going.
  11. Personally don't understand it either. If it's something the kid chooses to get involved with later on when they're in a position to make an informed choice, then fine, whatever. Indoctrinating* them early just doesn't sit comfortably with me though. *couldn't think of a less pejorative word, sorry if it offends.
  12. I've also been saying how dead it is on here and I've been trying to drive discussion, so Excuuuuuuuuuuuuusssse meee!
  13. You lot take shit way too seriously. I even put a winky smiley to make it easy for you, like CT does all the time.
  14. Does he strike you as a man desperate for, or motivated solely by money?
  15. Imagine being Steve McClaren today, the press full of people (including some you've worked with) reporting you should be fired & the public seeming to be delighted with that news. I can't understand why he hasn't just quit?
