Here's a tip for the dissatisfied women footballers of the world.
If Cheap FUT Coins is
the misogynist devil you portray it to be, set up your own world football
organisation and get on with making the women's game all you think it can be. If
you are free to think and act for yourselves, women's football can find avenues
Fifa is incapable of travelling down. Design your own future, and maybe even
redesign the actual game.
Sportspeople with a genuine gripe and a bold new vision - think league,
cricket, darts, league again - have split from their rulers down the years with
interesting and positive results.
Sepp Blatter's Fifa is copping it from all sides again, this time for daring
to run the women's World Cup on artificial surfaces in Canada next year. At a
pre-draw press conference in Ottawa at the weekend, Fifa secretary-general
Jerome Valcke refused to be cowed, which of course will only lead to more
anti-Fifa ire.
Leading women players are taking Fifa to a human rights tribunal alleging
gender discrimination because men - they claim - would never be subjected to the
same, which draws a wee giggle.
The men have indeed experienced weird Fifa behaviour, such as lumping them
with a new and erratic football on the eve of a World Cup. They may also have to
play in Qatar because ... well, we won't go there. In an ironic defence, Fifa
could use evidence of how crazy it can be.
Fifa has expanded the women's tournament and raised the prizemoney but
Blatter could help an old lady across the road and he'd be accused of holding up
the traffic.
There is also a simmering resentment in women's sport about its treatment
which sometimes manifests itself in wanting to prove it is the equal of men.
Genetics makes this impossible, especially in viewing terms for team sport.
The vast majority of women's football is for family and friends. Nature ain't
always fair, and no amount of nurture will change that. What next? The world's
top juniors could complain about playing in backwater New Zealand next year,
alleging ageism.
As with almost all team sport, top-level women's football will never be as
good to watch as top-level men's football as we know it. Men are stronger and
more dynamic. Call me a sexist pig, but the A-League - which isn't exactly world
class - is better to watch than any women's football I've seen.
Professional sports watching isn't an exercise in human rights. People like
what they like, spend their money on what they want to, and are drawn to the
best.
Canada launched the only proper bid for next year's tournament and Fifa went
for the human-made turf option. Without getting bogged down in the argument,
there were weather-related reasons, legitimate or not according to your
viewpoint.
This so-called travesty has inevitably highlighted anecdotes from within the
halls of football power revealing a game dominated by men since the year dot is
still dominated by male-oriented thinking. Wow!
The artificial surface - no matter how the decision was reached - was an
interesting option, a point of difference, something the less physical women's
game could make the most of. It's nonsense trying to compare it to the men's
tournament, which is in a different universe to everything else in sport apart
from the multi-event Olympics. But no, it's off to court on a principle that
won't really change anything.see more at:http://www.runmmo.com
