This is WILD!
Back when Sky Sports first started showing England women’s football, Tim Lovejoy on Soccer AM absolutely ripped into it:
“Nobody was as surprised as I was last week when I found out that Sky Sports has started showing comedy. But it’s true. Thursday night we showed England’s women’s football team playing a World Cup playoff.” 😂
Then he delivers this absolute killer:
“We’ve got the highlights… but if you’re not interested, we’re giving you the opportunity to watch paint dry instead.” 😭
Imagine anything even close to this level of banter today about women’s football, especially on Sky Sports. Not a chance!
You can’t even mildly criticise the women’s game without getting piled on. Everyone’s forced to play along and pretend it’s exactly the same as the men’s game. No differences whatsoever.
Absolute madness!
