Double standards again.

How come we’ve never been done when certain idiots have chanted at the Posh woman? Did that not matter because she wasn’t an official?
The rules they breached specifically related to gender. It's aimed to protect women from being subject to chants like "Get your tits out". Is that an unreasonable rule in your opinion?

The FA found that 75-100 fans aimed language at the official which was “Extremely offensive, both blatantly ***ist and in vulgar indecent language”. We can assume the "tits out" song would be included. Are male referees subject specifically to such abuse?

Would you be happy if that was your daughter on the receiving end MT?
