Why should she disrespect a club who had shown her respect above what any men's club have shown to women?

 

It was crass, uncalled for and she deserves digging out for it

 

You say crass, I see it as calling a spade a spade, straight talking. She spoke her mind, I respect that in people.

What about the misogyny and sneering from folk like you.

 

We knew it was coming.

 

It is just as bad and you know it.

 

Thankfully the world has moved on from people like you'.

Disrespecting somebody who has shown you bravery and respect is calling a spade a spade?

 

OK...

They've replayed the Emma Hayes interview on Sky this morning. 

 

In fairness, the question was pitched to her in such a way that it was insulting to the women's game, and she replied in kind.

 

If a male manager had her forthrightness and strength of opinion, he would be celebrated as a character, no-nonsense and a 'winner'.

 

Hayes is just seen as arrogant, difficult and gobby. 

 

She could have been more diplomatic about the AFC Wimbledon link, but why should she?. 

i've worked with emma hayes, she is amazing.   and the guys around her take her absolutely seriously, she deserves a good club in men's football should she want to cross over.

I've got nothing against the prospect of women head coaches but it is of no surprise which club has stepped forward and half-heartedly done this (caretaker?)

 

I'm not sold that she was the most suitable candidate out of 60 applicants, that is a downright lie if knowledge and experience means anything. This shouts out PR move from a chairman known for manipulating PR.

 

It seems people fall over themselves to fawn over the 'progessive' decision to hire a woman but I would have liked to have seen Owlstalk if DC had hired a woman.

 

Women in football is all well and good when its another team but people would take stock when its their own club that becomes the victim of a social experiment.

 

Good luck to her and I already pity her for the vile abuse she'll no doubt receive on Twitter.

a bit like this positive post.......

if a premier manager got offered the wimbledon job and turned it down, are they being disrespectful?

Because the level of football she's been managing is a lower level than that l where Wimbledon play and it should be seen as a respectful approach to advance her career and make a seismic advance in women's roles in sports? 

managing a club in the women's champions league is a lower level than wimbledon?

that says more about you than her...

i could explain things to you, but i can't make you understand them...

 

 

I don't think you have the capacity to explain anything if you are comparing the women's game to the men's a d Emma Hayes to a premier league manager

 

Come back when you learn something

I'm a big supporter of women's football but this is just ridiculous.

 

All men's professional football in this country is a level above the women's leagues
