woso Who TF is Joey B*rton? Going on Piers gives me a clue. He’s mad about not getting hired? Maybe his personality is a factor.

@KiersTheivam There's an ex PL footballer who's being given a lot of attention for comments he's made about women in football. People like him crave attention, and while it's really hard to do, the best thing to do is to absolutely blank him. 1/2 Kieran Theivamanoharan @KiersTheivam 2/2 That feeling of putting something out there and nobody responding makes you feel irrelevant. It's quite telling some respectable organisations I trust haven't put out any statement in response. Because he's not worth it. Women are here to stay. We need more, not less.
@HerGameToo We are lucky to have such incredible, intelligent and passionate women working in the beautiful game. This statement means so much to so many of us. Thank you Bianca! From all of us at Her Game Too • Bianca Westwood @beewestwood (Attached statement in next image)
I don't have time to answer everybody today so I'll just say I don't have a problem with men saying they dislike certain female pundits/comms. That's an opinion & I'm not a fan of every male pundit who gets a job. That's not what Joey said in his original tweets & that's what I took issue with. He said "Women shouldn't be talking with any kind of authority in the men's game." Quite honestly that's the biggest load of crap I've ever heard. Calling out the young woman from Man City TV was also totally out of line. "Give them an inch" ...Using language like that invites extreme reactions & the standard misogynistic venom that I was subjected to once upon a time (& am currently getting now on X). It is water off a duck's back to me now but it can be extremely damaging to your confidence & mental health when you're starting out. Is that how a grown man should be treating a young person who is just doing a job she's been employed to do. By men no doubt! Now apparently I'm acceptable because

He was a self-styled football "bad boy" in the 00s, and this is literally the first time I've heard his name mentioned since Big Soccer was a thing.
