Just wondering what members thought of this appointment that was announced yesterday: www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24935248

The Players' Union was established in 1907 and became the PFA in the late 1950s, thus highlighting the first female appointment for over 100 years.

Seems a sensible move. The board needs to reflect its members after all.

Well those tea cups won't wash themselves up after meetings, will they?

Edna's right. Or maybe in the modern world she'll empty the dishwasher instead. Point stands though

A shame that people are resorting to talking about her gender as opposed to what she brings to the table*. All very sexist.








* small tits and maybe a victoria sponge.

I don't understand why the FA need a Moto GP rider on the committee.

Exactly, I know he must be a little bored these days but Aussie aren't renowned for their football skills.
maybe he could have helped out the Aussie cricketers instead?
