People will continue to over hype sport stars and do silly things like name a tram after them. It’s always happened and it always will. You’re annoyed at the naming of a tram, in an area you don’t live I assume, because it’s a woman who had some recent media attention. That sadly won’t end either.

This sort of stuff is okay, local girl done well for herself gets a small gesture from the local community. Rachel Daly has for a few bits names after her round here, fine, some of the young girl players love it, great stuff. But an MBE, that used to be prestigious, I can’t see anyone making a case for what she’s done to earn one other than the usual snidey comments about people not liking it because she’s a woman. Joe Hart has saved a penalty for England and he’s got way more caps, don’t see anyone saying he should get one.

Trying to work out how and why these things are awarded other than "Royal family reps trying to keep the Royal family look like they are in touch with the public" just seems a bit stupid. I'm not sure they were ever actually prestigious were they? There just wasn't mediums to create debate and focus on who was being given them. There is loads of these you can question so yes, when the one that seems to have irked you is a woman, and coincidently is being picked on by misogynists trying to keep themselves relevant with other misogynists , you will attract snidey comments.

Just to dispel the idea that you're just doing it because others you find amusing are. Also as this is a forum for football if you can point me in the direction your criticism of Jordan Henderson, Jonny Evans or James Milner that'll be helpful.

To be fair, he deserves a knighthood for services to sponge. Made incredible in-roads in an openly sexist industry dominated by the matriarchy, faced horrendous misandry from dinosaurs like Mary Berry and Mel or Sue. 2

The Cat Posted 31 December, 2023 Posted 31 December, 2023 The honours system has been devalued for years, dished out to curry favour amongst friends, party donors and various hangers on. It's really not even worthy of discussion nowadays apart from to pick apart which of their cronies the government of the day has given them to. I'll wait for the next issue of Private Eye to see the full list of them. 3

They are quite clearly nonsense and there's quite clearly no threshold to get one. I just wanted to point out how odd is that people get these weird recognitions all the time and people like Milner, Henderson and whoever else didn't cause any reaction at all but a woman named the best player in her position during a world tournament isn't sufficient and triggers a reaction.

Milner, Henderson etc are top players in an elite sport. In her sport “Best player in her position” , is the equivalent of “most interesting Belgian” or “Portsmouths fittest bird”. Particularly when the standard of that particular position is even lower than the woeful standard of the rest. The standard of goalkeeping is embarrassing, truly shocking.

Maybe Alex is a misogynist. If there's anyone posting a clip of a woman doing something terrible on a football pitch it's him. Same with commentators. It's quite bizarre. If any woman is unlucky enough to be his partner I'm sure she loves being spoken down to and told that she's no good at certain things. 1
