Speaking to each other in the studio before the game, believing their microphones were off, Keys had said: 'Somebody better get down there and explain offside to her.' Former Scotland striker Gray replied: 'Can you believe that? A female linesman. Women don't know the offside rule.' To which Keys said: 'Course they don't. I can guarantee you there will be a big one today. Kenny (Liverpool manager Dalglish) will go potty. This isn't the first time, is it? Didn't we have one before?'
Kenny Dalglish’s daughter Kelly Cates wrote this cutting tweet about the controversy: 'Phew am exhausted. Just read about something called “the offside rule”. Too much for my tiny brain. Must be damaged from nail polish fumes.'
To be honest, I hate it when people think women are stupid. I'm a guy who grew up around women and I understand the fact that there is nothing a man can do that a woman cannot (semen doesn't count).
But yeah, people need to get over the fact about women have tiny brains.
They are just idiots. Whats wrong with trying out different things in the game? And that counter attack involving Meireles was not offside so that Gray fellor should get some glasses.
It's only a storm in a teacup if you accept that it is ok to undermine and deride people solely because of what they have (or don't have) between their legs!.
If it had been a black linesman and they had used skin colour as a basis of their remarks, there would have been uproar, and rightly so.
It is time people were assessed for jobs on their ability alone, and not derided because of their colour, religion or gender.
It may turn out to be a storm in a TEACUP for the two pea brains behind the microphones, but it shows everyone that the two of them can only belittle the women in private cos they need to console eachother that these type of women who are breaking into the game may one day take there jobs! thats a very scary thought for the cavemen types! mind you there opinions would change towards women at football games if the women were rustling pom poms on the sidlines clad in skimpy shorts ! begging the question, are there brains situated in there shorts?
