This is what brings him out of hiding (or, rather, returning to an old alias to "congratulate" a new one) From 2020, looks like his anxieties about women haven't subsided.

Maybe time to refocus on important things now before it's too late. Just saying. On 23/09/2020 at 16:02, Wee Norrie said: The resources that I mention means money. Okay, I'll have to assume by your answer that Thistle's women's football is financially self supporting (if that's what you've been told) and if that is the case, I would have no issue (if I was a Thistle fan). As for rainbow issues, I was unaware that there is a problem with anyone's sexual preference with regards to football. Probably one more unnecessary box ticking exercise in my humble opinion. Aw well, as long as it keeps someone employed. Personally I would spend all the clubs energy and resource on first team footballing matters. On 24/09/2020 at 07:41, Wee Norrie said: Surely the fact that television, acting, hairdressing etc probably has far more than 7% of that quota, why have you a problem with professional football not attracting gay men? I really fail to see why it's important to know about someone's sexual preferences, or have a problem with them keeping it private if they want to. I don't hear people in the aforementioned traditional gay avenues bleating about heterosexuals being under represented. You guys can of course focus on what you want, but I'm glad that my club just seem to focus on mainly football issues (even if they're not very good at it). Personally I would keep politics well away from football, but everyone to his own. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 If only Partick Thistle stopped pouring their money into their womens team, they'd probably be in the Champions League by now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sortmeout Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) Will probably get hammered for this and I’m not “raging” about it because the outlay is probably minimal but I’m not a bit fan of Kilmarnock funding a women’s team either. If that team pays for its self then fair enough but other than that anything that doesn’t short or long term make the men’s first 11 better then I don’t really want the club spending money on it. If the club was funding an over-35s men’s team to win a charity league and we were losing money on it I wouldn’t want that either. I’m sure this isn’t a one sided argument there will be female fans of the Kilmarnock women’s team who don’t care about the men’s team and probably bang their head off the wall at the fact 99% of the clubs budget is probably spent on the men’s team. ETA - my own personal feelings on women’s football may change through time, they certainly have over the last 5 or so years as the game has grown but I saw a comment earlier on about the Partick women’s team having more chance of making Europe than them and I was just thinking that even if Kilmarnock womens team were playing in a European final at Rugby Park tonight I still wouldn’t go.
