Anybody up for a game of fitba ? Cricket! zzzzzzzzzzz. The offside rule will not apply due to current controversy over gender interpretations of the laws.
There was an old pundit called Gray
Who considered female refs easy pray
He never turned off his Mike
And was told to get on his bike
The result, he is now left with no pay.

The Lady in question is a teacher in a Coventry school. She did well running the line on saturday in the Premiership. There was a question over one decision for offside, but the replay showed she'd got it right.
It's just a matter of time before the dinosaurs are flushed out.
I too find cricket to be ... zzzzzzzzzz.....zzzzzzz.....zzzzzzzz
Sacrilege!
I see there has been some fallout over comments made about a female referee. I'm guessing her offside interpretation differs from what the commentators [think they] saw?

They were commenting before the game. They didn't give the lassie a chance - foul I call it. Andy Grey may have been a good footballer, but he's an old git now.
I like most sports...
Not good.
The Bears appeared drowsy having just emerged from hibernation as they entered the forzen steppe of hallowed ground known as "Soldier Field."
Cutler's Achilles knee played a key role in the slaughter of Bear meat by the meat packers from Green Bay.
Atlas in the form of Urlacher can only carry a team on his shoulders for so long, but as the slaughter wore on, he too succombed to fetid stench of rotted "cheese heads".
Oh yeah, the "superthingy" (Super Bowl), will be played soon next month.
Sounds like the makings of another play...?
Just kidding
.
Thank goodness for that. I had visions of a cricket commentary going on till the end of time. You are right about the controversy. Andy Gray the top commentator and analysist of English football made a right ricket, basically saying that a female official was incapable of interpreting the offside law. Well join the club as I don't understand it, referees don't understand it and I guess the majority of football fans don't understand it. Mrs Jocky, however, has no problems with it at all.

Why don't men like women officials?
I remember the only time I got close to a fight playing soccer was when my first wife was referee and pinged the opponents for offside and they started giving her a very hard time about it.
They quietened down a touch when I pointed out that if it continued, someone would be needing a stretcher.
Yeah, most women are good sports!
