Says she’s ’not up for male aggression’ yet at full time shoves the Arsenal manager out of the way as he tries to shake her hand.

Strange take, she comes across as a very bad loser and I’m not sure she should be throwing phrases like that around.

Without sounding all Joey Barton, I think the media reaction would be slightly different if roles were reversed here.
 
I was there today with my daughter. Chelsea doing Chelsea things. When the Arsenal player was down unresponsive for 10 minutes a bunch of classless Chelsea fans starting singing Chelsea songs, I mean there’s a girl there not moving for 10 mins.

Then to see their manager behaving like this. Disgraceful.

I’d pay to watch Chelsea lose at tiddly-winks to be honest
 
Second that ⬆️

Remember when she was being "linked" with a manager's job in League 1, she was so f*cking condescending and up her own ar*e when she "dismissed" it, thought if that were a man in the same situation with being offended a manager's job in the ladies game....

She's a d*ckhead.
 
It's a shocking comment from her if the situation was as described by the reports.

"Male aggression" for telling a player to stick to the agreed to ball rules.

Just opens him up to all sorts of issues and concerning publicity, seemingly all because she can't handle her team losing.

If he'd shoved her in the same way as she had him, he'd probably have been sacked.

She's not gaslighting. He comments are about an earlier incident with Cuthbert where she felt Eidevall was being aggressive with her player.

The push showed a lack of class and not letting things go show she's a sore loser - but she wasn't making stuff up.

It can still be gaslighting if it's about an incident that did occur.

Publicly describing it as an act of male aggression puts an entirely different spin on it than "manager argues with opposition player".

Hayes is arguably the most high profile manager in the women's game too, so it's obviously going to be given a great deal of coverage.

I haven't seen the incident, which Sky haven't put cut up for video for some reason. But I'd be more inclined to put it down to tempers running high and her being protective of her player.

I haven't seen the incident either, so I suppose there's a chance it was really bad, but I suspect there'd be widely distributed footage if it genuinely had been.

This is the Guardian's description of the event: "Replays showed Eidevall gesticulating from distance as Cuthbert collected the ball, then Cuthbert approached him after taking the throw-in before racing back on to the pitch."

It sounds like absolutely nothing.

There's being protective of your players and there's trying to throw another manager under the bus by making out that they're stepping over the line because they're a man and "fronting up to players".

Especially when she was actually being physically aggressive towards him before she made the comment to the press.

It's pathetic.
 
Used to think Hayes was ok, and thought she talked sense, but the more time has gone on the more she believes her own hype and is very bitter with it!

Yesterdays comments are a farce.

Absolutely nothing in it.

Both managers/ benches wanting to win, vocal with it etc … so what, happens in every game.

Terrible loser. I bet the shove and comments don’t happen if they win! The bellend
 
Whilst this looks like it is a storm in the teacup, If a bloke shoved a women he would probably lose his job, or face such media outrage that his job would be almost impossible.

tbf - bloke shoving another male manager would - probably - not get sacked.. scuffles between managers in the mens game happen, fairly regularly - a few times a season - in important games & they are usually just pointed out & laughed at..
