Have you seen it Viv? What he said was fine.All he needs to say is “it’s a PHYSICAL game.” Times have changed and moved on. Sky will put him on a course.

I wrote that before I’d watched the clips tbhDaft argument. He’s not in “Hot water” he’s just been pulled up on a comment that’s all.
But it was a mens football match, he wasn’t wrong in what he said.What's wrong with the man.
It's a game for all genders.
I know, I just wanted to take offence to see how it felt.But it was a mens football match, he wasn’t wrong in what he said.
She didn’t like that
It was a man’s game though? The vibe I got was that he was talking about separating the men from the boys and not the men from the women. For me he’s done nothing wrong.To my mind he’s using an outdated term that he will surely have been briefed on. It isn’t a “man’s game”. It’s a game. It’s a physical game. Just say that. Why bring gender or sex into it?
It’s almost if people say this stuff just because they know *some* people will respond and then they can moan about not being able to say anything any more. Just grow up and move with the times FFS.
I’m not sure, I don’t think you can get rid of these outdated terms overnight, Souness has probably been using that term for 50 plus years, he is from an age group which probably does not see anything wrong with using it.To my mind he’s using an outdated term that he will surely have been briefed on.

He talking about watching football. We got our football back. This is how I like to watch it, men at it.It was a man’s game though? The vibe I got was that he was talking about separating the men from the boys and not the men from the women. For me he’s done nothing wrong.
Perhaps the best way to resolve "issues" like this is to have male pundits and commentators on the men's games and female pundits and commentators on the women's gamesPersonally don’t think there’s anything wrong with what he said, think it’s more about the game going a bit soft over the last 15 years or so, fouls being given constantly, refs spoiling games, but now they’re being told to let the game flow.
If Karen Carney was offended then she should’ve pulled him up about it on air rather than just pull a face.
