You could probably have phrased that better however in the interests of debate, I will ask this.
In the upcoming woman's WC will there be any male refs. I could be wrong but I dont think there will be.
If that is the case why are we having female refs? Its not because they are better because they are clearly operating at a level of experience far below the mens game.
Only answer . To satisfy the woke brigade. The above comment certainly triggered a few in here
One problem with answering this is that someone might equate ‘answering’ with ‘being triggered’.
i agree that it could have been phraswd better, but will add that it also could have been meant better. I also agree that you could be wrong. The only things I don’t agree with is that a) the worlds best female refs are necessarily less experienced or less good than qatari refs for instance. For anyone confusing ‘more experienced’ with ‘best’, I would refer to Graham Moss’s last couple of seasons. And b), that the only reason why FIFA would do something is to ‘satisfy a woke brigade’. i just disagree completely with that. Moving benchmarks, making a statement of equality, turning the tables, lauding effort and performance, providing the world with new role models, spreading the game, doing something different for a change, or just picking the best refs could all be possible answers, and all more plausible than that FIFA wants to satisfy that particular brigade in Qatar.
