Ever wondered what Twitter looked like in the 1950s?

You couldn't make it up. A thread started about women footballers, turns into a discussion/binfest about what makes a bloke, a bloke.

exactly, and has become far funnier and more interesting in the process.

Our lions go back to being fathers, partners and sons today, but they've taken on another title- heroes.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one impressed with England's performance against mighty Costa Rica in the last WC where we defended like lions and earned a plucky 0-0.

It has got a bit silly, I agree.

Wasn't so much about the women's footy for me, as the uneccesary requirement to take offence on behalf of a team of women who probably gave about 1/100th of a shit about it.

Out of interest, how much is 1/100th of a shit?

You'd have to be pretty quick off the mark with the old cigar cutter to measure that amount out in the chod bin.

This thread title would suggest other than this tweet from the FA, Twitter is a paragon of modern liberalism and political correctness.

i certainly dont have some silly set criteria , you obviously do.

of course you don't

'most blokes couldnt give a **** about womens football, note i said blokes, as in lads, geezers, not the metrosexual,cargo trouser wearing types that come on here droning on about getting a ''footy'' fix at the albion.'

Where are you heading to somewhere sunny?
