Women's Football

I could make an obvious joke about how the match engine would have to be substantially worsened to provide a realistic portrayal of women's football, but I won't.

Oh, oops.

Women's Football is absolute dross. Why would anyone want to manage them in FM?

Imagine having to manage a team whose keeper is only 5 foot 5 and unable to touch the crossbar! Or having to manage a team full of players with 1's, 2's and 3's for their stats! And getting ridiculous scorelines line 7-1 every other game. And only receiving gate receipts from 50 fans each paying about 2 pounds each! Or having news messages coming up saying "so-and-so has not turned up for training because she's on her period!"

In saying that, maybe if FM to go with it they could add some extra stats. Like cup size etc... SI could also make some nice Facegen pics taking in the cleavage!

Although I am in favour of more female coaches, linesmen, physios etc... in FM. I did have a female coach called Rachel in a previous version. Can't remember it's surname.

there are female assistant refs in the game. isnt this enough to make girls want to buy FM?

i cant imagine girls wanting to buy a football management simulation just because it also involves womens football so ir would have to be a no from me, waste of SI time

I wouldn't like to see women's football. I hate men who try to stick up for women like they are poor and defensiveless. The reason it shouldn't be added is obvious, but I would like to create a female manager, aslong as it the game isn't ridden with tons of novelty female only awards. I hate being treated like an inferior being, and it's mostly done by overly PC goody goody men instead of old tweed tie and blazer with a pipe men.

if people want women then make a separate product called fm women, no way can you incorporate it in the mens game, this whole discussion is worthless, no point to it.
honestly guys!
