Yesterday I eagerly took delivery of my DVD box set of the Women?s World Cup 2011, I have been waiting for the tell tale ring ding dong on the door bell for more than 6 weeks.
After all women have been whacking that 32 panels of waterproofed plastic or leather since 1917 and to men the scenario seems to pose an imaginative challenge, as the Fifa president, Sepp Blatter put it way back in 2004 to promote a more female aesthetic, ?Let the women play in more feminine clothes like they do in volleyball (the beach variety no doubt), they could for example have tighter shorts and shirts, female players are pretty, if you excuse me for saying so, and they already have some different rules to men, such as playing with a lighter ball, that decision was taken to create a more female aesthetic, so why not do it in fashion??..  Well as sure as night follows day or vice-versa Blatter's managed to provoke the indignation and utter outrage of every female footballer, some 30 million worldwide, which threatened to undermine the sport, comments went along the lines of ?typical of a bloke, doesn't know what he is talking about, don't use a lighter ball for one thing, to say we should play football in hot pants is plain ridiculous?.... Having said that and Messrs Kayoko and Lobbo would certainly not need a vote ....Check this out ..?Hope Jive? ........ U.S. women's team goalkeeper Hope Solo is taking part in "Dancing with the Stars"...in Blatter?s preferred attire......  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5L_CCJPIGJ0&feature=player_embedded Then there is the other end of the spectrum, the Iranian team barred after President Ahmadinejad insisted they play in hijab and bodysuits ... I kid you not!!!! .... Turkey vs Iran - Women's Football - Bronze Medal Match - Singapore 2010 Youth Games.flv......Blatter would be mortified what no bikini?s, sorry hot pants ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juBkwq3saB4 Just a sec ....... Bikini Soccer... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd-oIgbxGLM There is one glorious aspect, as that wonder summer fortnight proved; the women's game is not simply different, it is the very definition of the beautiful game, possession, passing, control and defense. Still comparatively small in comparison to the dizzy competitive heights of the Premier League, the players don't throw childish temper tantrums with the ref, they don't make the oscar winning theatrical dives Ronaldo or Drogba are famous for, don?t fake injury, time waste or hog the ball, no shirt pulling, rival teams reside at the same hotels and even visit local pubs to watch matches together, the fans hang on the terraces and don't beat each other senseless, close matches, good football, watch out Guys our time will come.  Kayoko .....?A lot of young managers have got bits and pieces to thank [Arsene Wenger] for... I think he has the greatest of respect of all managers in this country? Graham Turner, Shrewsbury manager... Wenger slams terrible Arsenal defense after Blackburn defeat.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbJKTKNR5jE As Grandma favourite song goes ......Arsenal - The Wonder of you......  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wb2gBUhw5bY |
