As a woman, football lover, youth pro player and now training to become a referee and coach, I have already made the decision to only train girls teams even though I’ve been offered to work with both genders. However NO I WILL NOT, for two main reasons; A. even at 10/11 years old boys play a very different game and need a male athlete B. It’s been a long time dream of mine to do the qualification to referee but I have never been financial position to. The reason I finally doing it is because the FA is funding me. The sole reason for this is because I am female. Whilst I am not going to debate the rights or wrongs of this inequality, I want to embrace the opportunity but would never presume I am able to coach boys to the same standards male coaches can and subsequently take away the opportunity for boys to become amazing footballers and worst still take over in this sport or any other things in life. I will not support the current propaganda that is aimed at making males redundant in all aspects of life.

“No one is more hated then he who speaks the truth”: Plato

He’s right. Diversity, equity & inclusion is ruining football punditry. I’ve been a season ticket holder at a Premier League Club for over 30 years & a female & I don’t like the female pundits being pushed in the men’s game because they really don’t have the same depth of knowledge as male professional footballers. I cancelled Sky Sports because I don’t want woke politics pushed at me constantly when I just want to enjoy watching the football. The BBC & ITV are just as bad. I don’t watch women’s football because it’s not the same game as the men’s game. Men should be able to object to football being highjacked for political ends without being attacked as misogynists but on the issue rather than personal attacks on appearance. This was a really interesting conversation.

I really enjoyed this discussion because of the uncensored truth of it. I am an old school feminist from the 60s and what we defined as equality, in those days , is different from being and having the same as men. It was a protest against societal acceptance that women were considered inferior and limited in the roles they could play. Then men made the rules and if women knew what was good for them they'd obey. For example, when I was at Teachers College in 1966, women were not allowed to wear trousers and in the classroom you had to wear stockings. No naked legs were permitted. I dont think people realise how oppressed women were by trivial, petty nonsense. I could not get a mortgage on my own simply because I was and still am by the way, female.😂 Did I want to be the same as a man? Hell no! They suffered compulsory conscription for one thing.

I just had a huge falling out with my brother-in-law because I said I agree with Joey. I was instantly a Nazi of course. The sheer power and physicality of male football is frightening. Most people see football on TV or from deep in the stands. Try being on the touchline and see two male athletes hurtling towards a 50 / 50 ball. I recall Serena Williams saying male tennis is a completely different game due to the sheer power difference and that's a game without physical contact. I trust Serena more than my brother-in-law!

I think women are perfectly capable of becoming football commentators. But they should only be hired if they’re better than other candidates. A diversity hire for the sake of it shows contempt for sports and ironically sets women’s rights back decades.

Here in Ireland, we used to have a football analysis panel on tv, made up of four ex pros who played in the 60s / 70s and 80s. The analysis was top notch but the main reason they were so revered is because they were blunt, honest and all good friends away from the studio. It was like tuning in to watch a pub chat after a game.... Now the woke virus has reached us too and every sports broadcast must have a female presenter and at least one female analyst. Preferably with a couple of "safe" yesmen on the panel who wont scare the suits up stairs. The quality of analysis has nose dived and the whole thing is often stilted, dry and corporate.

Andrew, I've enjoyed your podcast. But in this episode you haven't pushed the guest at all. I understand you're a football fan, but that's not very professional. Some of the things this man said are clearly misogynistic--like women not being able to vote is a valid opinion?? Also the guest had domestic violence charges against him--why there was no question about that? Similarly some of his assaults in his youth may have been racially motivated, but there were no follow up questions on that. I don't agree with a lot of contemporary identity politics, but being anti-'woke' is different from potentially being racist and misogynistic, which the guest may well be. Finally, many have commented that men have occupied media space/broadcast positions in a lot of women's sports, even in sports (such as rhythmic gymnastics) which men don't even practice. However, this point has never been brought up.

Interesting points until the whole ‘women not having the vote is a valid opinion thing’. Sometimes it’s OK to say that an opinion is awful.

You can think that opinion is awful, but it's still a valid opinion for someone else to hold. They're just opinions to be discussed.

​@@MissUltimaThule well I'm not a liberal and whilst I don't agree that women should lose the vote there are rational arguments for that. Many women now, including young women, are really not happy with the world feminists created. Many women don't want to vote. They want a husband, a house and a family and they don't want to work. My daughter is 14 and she said that to me.

@@MissUltimaThule The problem is - who decides what is "reasonable"? Before women got the vote, many people considered that giving women the vote was ridiculous. It was only by expressing their "awful" views and persuading people that the campaigners for women's emancipation were successful.

Just want to say that I'm really enjoying your new heretics podcast. I used to watch your other channel, and (for me, at least), it was a bit hit or miss. This is all hits. Well done.

As always, great interview Andrew.

If women went to women's games weekly, bought the season tickets, shirts, calendars and subcribed to sports channels in the same numbers that men do for the men's game, guess what? Women's footy would be huge and have billions sloshing about for development and promotion. But they don't. Most of them support it purely theoretically. The next time someone tells you "they should get the same attention as the men" ask them to name 5 players that aren't in the England national team....

Big ups Joey and Andrew. Great work 👍

Just to point out Andrew, the reason girls were not playing football is because we were never offered it in lessons, never allowed in teams, never encouraged and bullied if we showed an interest.

No. That may be a part of it, but it's no secret that boys/men are more interested in sports than girls/women. Men and Women are different, not entirely, but in important ways, and that's ok. In fact it's necessary.

I love Joey Barton, legend of a player and speaker of common sense

'One conversation at as time'... what a great name for a channel!!! Getting really close to that 100k !! Well deserved!!

One improvement I'd like to see for this channel is - please ask your guests for an intro at the start, who are they, what is their background. Cheers

That's a great looking studio. Great pod, thanks!

I think he's generally correct in pointing out real problems. I think he's entitled to his opinion without being harassed. I also think that commentators in the entertainment industry should be selected according to what their consumers want; if consumers want a woman from the bus stop to comment on a game, that's fine. Football is an entertainment industry that rationally should serve the demands of it's consumers as best it can.

100% agree with Joey. Womens football is not as good as mens, period. They shouldn't be taking the punters jobs. I'm a woman I watch mens football because women's football isn't as good, it's boring in comparison. Keep it up Joey I'm with you 👏👏🇬🇧

If a woman's the best one for the job, she should get it. If the man's better, he should. It should be on meritocracy, not sex, and not race. We get female commentators on men's tennis and vice versa.

Love this channel. So glad for your success!

Great interview Andrew! Really fascinating listen I’ve had to re-listen to it three times! Great to see your heretics podcast really taking off mate! From someone you interviewed only a couple of years ago on Shaun Attwoods channel

I agree.. I hate hearing men commentators in netball etc.. I guess it’s us getting men back for dressing up as woman & taking over female sports 🥴

Loved this interview. So refreshing to hear what most of us think and feel said outloud.

That was a enjoyable watch from both of you cheers

Never heard of this guest, however I still found this topic and conversation very interesting and insightful. Thank you Andrew for another brilliant episode of Heretics ❤️👍🏼

I've no idea about the details of the Jeremy Vine thing, but quick point of order: *No one* pays road tax - there's no such thing. Every (smug, perhaps) cyclist knows this fact - but all too many non-cycling drivers don't have a clue and make the same mistake that Joey does here.

100K subscribers soon, and totally deserved! Well done, Andrew! Keep doing you! :)

Very good interview.

He says men that have played the sport should be the ones in pundit positions because they know more. Then he proceeds to say how Postecoglou is a chameleon and spurs is having a normal spursy season..... Im glad he isnt one of the "experts" -__-

Quite a difference from being a top manager to being pundit

Commenting for the algorithm. I love being a little late to the live stream and listening x2 speed… when I catch up you guys sound like you've had strokes out of nowhere.

Gotta love Joey. It's enormously refreshing to hear an plain-speaking non-woke guy stating the obvious, & defying our woke version of the 1960's Maoist Cultural Revolutionary student mobs.

Ah yes, lovely little joey, a nice man who described the racist murder committed by his brother, with an ice axe, as, a 'scrap' and who also said he knows where Eni Aluko's family live. What a top fella, it's important we hear his views and really get to understand his nuanced perspective. Maybe he'll even explain nietzsche to us.

Well said, and good luck with J V

i think the best person for the job should be hired - it seems so sensible to hire that way...

Andrew- i'm still not re-subbing yet, but I must sat I am very happily impressed to hear you really stepping out and stepping up and having an opinion... much more interressting than listening to one more wishy-washy playing it sooooo safe "influencer" as you used to be to me. ❤❤❤ Keep Going.

Don’t back away from men invading women’s spaces either then Joey

Another good conversation, enjoying the heretics channel.

Andrew I think your great. The discussion highlighted some really good issues which need to be discussed, but it became very uncomfortable at times. Its not right to call people names in public. 'Looking like a cabbage patch doll' is demeaning and nasty. Hopefully a woman on TV would not disrespect you in front of thousands and call you a feminine string bean. (I'm sorry I don't mean it, its just an example of mean and belittling speech). Most of the time the victim of the insult can't answer back. I'm not preaching DEI, I'm talking about respecting each other. Female (girls) were discouraged to play football and if they reached a level of skill similar to boys at club level, they wouldn't accept them and they were banned. So that's why the business side of female game and the number and depth of players can't be compared to the men's team. Of course, as people, until recently, have argued that with all sports there's is a difference due to anatomy and physiology of the sexes. Again when I was listening to the discussion there was a level of disrespect running through the conversation. I'm an avid watcher, so keep up with inviting the different guest. I enjoy your technique and style of interviewing too.

This post👍 I’m a female KZreadr and at times this felt like bashing women. Folks forget how late we started in most professions, especially football. I interviewed the legendary manager of Arsenal’s quadruple winning team and these women were part-timers. Some worked in the box office for the club. This wasn’t so long ago either. These women are trailblazers who helped evolve the game. Players from this squad have earned the opportunities presented to them. Why are some men afraid of female progress? A lot of the women commentating have played at the highest level and won more than Joey. Also there are many male managers in the women’s game? Nobody is complaining about that. And Joey’s tweets have been abusive and bullying. Nothing funny about it and it’s ridiculous to suggest it’s good publicity for them.

The tickets only cost tenner as well as being empty

ANDREW , you are an amazing journalist and human being.

Great pod man

First time listening to Joey Barton and aside from the accent - what a top lad.

Fantastic discussion

I don't get the whole Oh the best womens team lost to a bunch of good 15 year old players when you start from the position that the womens game is alot slower and the physical capabilities are so different. The reason they play the boys is because they know themselves that those teams are better and they want the challenge so they can get better themselves. There is no shame in it, its a sensible way for them to improve. They know that against a mens team they wouild likely just get hurt so you don't see that and rightfully so.

He makes a clear distinction between commentators who tend not to have a football background and pundits who are ex-footballers. Don't comment if you didn't listen to what he said.

Men in general respect meritocracy, whereas women value egality and fair share above all.

Joey Barton is 💯 right. And before I get all the woke haters, I run girls and ladies teams and I'm very proud of all the females I have coached and managed and the levels they have aspired too. The difference between a male and female football team, particularly in the early teen years and beyond, when both male and female bodies and genetics change the most, its huge. I would happily play boys teams up to U12s but their after the physicality, strength and speed in boys just took over. We have no balance whatsoever on MSM and if you have played at the highest level and you are a white male (woke Lineker apart) you have no chance...

Great shout on the Hitch

Love you man 😊

So should we only have women presenters on women’s sport? Clearly that isn’t happening. Yes they have gone over the top with female presenters in sport and good men might be overlooked because of that, sorry but it will settle down and women will get better and of course they must be given a chance.

I don't think I'll be taking any lessons from a man sentenced to six months' imprisonment for common assault and affray, not mention the allegations he's faced of assaulting his wife and other women.
