QUESTION:
QUESTION: Is the decision to play the title decider of the Women’s Football League between Arsenal and Fulham at Highbury after the Arsenal Men’s Team play and receive the Premiership Trophy:
a) A great idea to promote the women’s game, the great year Arsenal Ladies have had and a fitting showpiece to display how the women’s game has come on in leaps and bounds
b) Patronising to suggest that the game would not get a decent audience all by itself, and highlighting that the policy of shunting the ladies off to Barnet to play regularly denigrates them as a second class attraction
c) CHEATING! If they win, they get the league (and cup double). Having a potential crowd of thrity thousand at their backs would almost treble the current recod for attendence for a modern ladies game. Pity poor Fulham and Charlton to be placed against this.
