Woman's footy is terrible. Absolutey shocking don't care if it's Everton related or not I wouldn't watch it because it bores me
Could have 100k at the final and it would still be shabite. That's why it's rarely mentioned in the media. Why it's rarely shown on tele. Rarely talked about it's why they're aren't paid a fraction of what the men are becauseit's boring
Can throw all the money at it they want will never be big
Depends what standard you are watching though.
I watch loads of women's football and the standard of the German and French leagues are perfectly watchable, enjoyable even.
People judge it in the same way they judge the men's game which is just really stupid as its a totally different game really. More emphasis is put on technique rather than athleticism. There is a big gap between the better sides and players and the lesser ones, even in the top flights so that can lead to some quality issues to be fair.
It is "boring" because like most sports you need some form of investment of interest in it to get enjoyment out of it. If you were to just randomly watch a game in lets say the Czech League would you find it interesting? More than likely not because you don't know the teams, you don't know who the players to watch are, you don't know the history, the rivalry etc. It is a big part of what makes sport interesting.
I have zero interest in cricket and find it "boring", mainly because I know nothing about it. It's the same thing. Basically you are judging something you know nothing about (we all do it).
What on earth has money got to do with it though? I find that a really weird way to look at things. I like the women's game because of the lack of money and ego, it means something to the players, you don't get women players snarling at fans who pay their wages when they score for example, there is very little cheating and the players are very accessible. Its actually on telly more than you think by the way, just not in the obvious places.
You say there is no quality in women's football. You are wrong. Just because you have not seen it doesn't mean its not there. I would be more than willing to teach people on it as well but some peoples minds are just closed to such things regardless of what you put in front of them.
That said the Everton women's team is not the team I follow. I mean I had a choice with this one, why double my suffering?
