    absolute nonsense, if his opinion directly thinks lesser of people different than him that needs to be corrected.

    or he acted on his worldview? gets so stuck into this right wing conspiracy he attacks an MP or journalist?

    EDIT: just to say as politics is very left vs right at the minute, if someone was in a deep left wing conspiracy ie with anti Semitism I would be saying the same thing

    They are men playing mens football, why does calling it man of the match make any difference in the real world. Just like in a women match, heck they even call it the womens super league, so why not woman of the match. In the real world, where most people live, no one gets offended by 'man' of the match, regardless of what inclusivity they bang on about.

    Thinking things and acting upon thoughts are two completely different things. Thankfully we do not have the thought police .The courts and prison service would collapse if we all have to be corrected for our opinions and thoughts.
    Now lets get back to FOOTBALL talk

    Wonder if the guy who murdered Jo Cox was 'normal' at one point or another. I assume so.

    It's a fake culture war designed to get us all arguing with each other whilst the billionaire owners of the media, managed to avoid tax for another year whilst we fight over whether Christmas is really being cancelled. Yes there will be a very very small minority who seem to get angry on other people's behalf, who themselves in reality don't care, but its not a war.

    Why does calling it man? I'm looking for a real world answer here. Why, in a game involving 22 men, is it deemed a problem to call the best player in that game 'man of the match'? Don't fob me off with inclusivity, we have a womens and mens professional league.

    It's odd because it's a men's game.

    What's wrong with man of the match in the men's game, woman of the match in the women's game and player of the match in any mixed children's games?

    It's accurate, it's traditional and it's inoffensive. Why it would even be changed in the first place is beyond any reasonable thought process.

    who said it was a problem to call it man of the match? you seem offended they changed it to player..

    "Don't fob me off with inclusivity, we have a womens and mens professional league." that is why they changed it, if you think theres another reason for it im all ears.

    That being said I do think you are overrecting a tad about a word change, nobody thinks saying man of the match or player of the match is a problem..

    You're nearly right... it was manufactured by the EFL to cause us to argue amongst ourselves to distract us from the fact they haven't made a bloody decision yet!
