    Woke gone mad

    ITV have stopped calling Man Of the Match it is now Player of the Match, during their FA Cup broadcasting last weekend.

    Pathetic isn’t it!?

    If they had to change it then simply use “MVP” meaning “Most valuable player on the pitch” in terms of performance.

    I can’t see why it can’t still be “Man Of The Match” for a male game and “Woman Of The Match” for a ladies game albeit that some will have bigger, hairier b o ll o x than me.

    Absolute madness. The best thing to do is for all us fans to just continue using the term 'Man of the Match'. Perhaps these media wokes might get the message. I doubt it though.

    When I worked on the council they told us not to call females love or darling when speaking to them.
    When I asked the lady giving the talk how we should address them she said we should say woman.😂😂😂
    You wont be surprised to know that she wore suits and batted for the other side.
    All of these rules are being made for the minorities.
    What happened to pleasing the majority?

    There are-apparantly-some 46 or so officially recognized ***ualities now!. It was so much simpler in the old LGBT days! This is all about non-binary rights and whilst I certainly understand that having a particular set of genitalia does not define anyone's ***uality I agree that this is just a further extension of the woke generations sense of over entitlement. End of the day you either have a dick or a fanny or both. Gay or Bi men for example are still referred to as men and they seem ok with this and trans people can be referred to as the gender they wish to be but all this "fluid" ***uality business hacks me off. I accept that some may genuinely feel this way but I refuse to call them by a **** in pro-noun! If they have a dick they are he/him/male and if they have a fanny then she/her/female. This form of classification based purely on their physical attributes does not define their ***uality and as long as they are not discriminated against otherwise I can't see the problem. Maybe I'm just not enlightened enough🙄

    Whatever you do with the rest of your day, do not Google the term 'nullos'. Just don't do it....... 😉 .

    Now you know this is just an impossibility don't you! Is it gonna be one of those things you can't unsee or will it ramp up the Victor Meldrew gene into overload? I'm going to Google it now....

    OK-thanks for that! (Luckily no photos!). I hereby adjust my options to :

    Have a dick
    Have a fanny
    Have both
    Have nothing


    But I still won't call anyone by a f uckin pronoun!😀

    Wouldn’t mind some of our players called girl of the match especially Livermore because he hardly gets his shorts dirty!
