Most women I’ve come across who like footy follow about the men’s game not the women’s.

Today’s banner headline on the back page was some woman I’ve never heard of is in line to take over the national team from Phil Neville. I didn’t even know Phil Neville was in charge of the women’s team.
Do you seriously not believe that the media can influence the level of interest of a topic within society?

And to not know that an ex-player of a team you support has become the head coach of your country's nation team of any type requires wilful ignorance

Still, you're interested enough to get worked up about people reporting on it.
Yeah I’m soo worked up. One post, ever.

‘I’ve decided that there’s too much national reporting on The US and China; from here on we’re going to lead heavily with Lichtenstein” Arrogant @#%&!s.

I knew he was up to something, just wasn’t sure what it was. Couldn’t be further down my interest stack.

A return to form on the horizon for Squirezy

I got all the Costanza/Seinfeld references but still funny as a hole in the head

By the way, mention how crap these "cartoons" are on the BTL comments if you want to wind up his fan boys and their hilarious puns. Major arse seeing.
