@BBCPolitics The key word is "sex". No one is disputing you can't change your sex. Gender identity is another debate entirely.

To the lads yesterday who told me I needed to "sort my girlfriend out" and make her "do my washing"- I'm not sure how many pints you'd had but if you follow me on here- take a look in the mirror. That kind of language isn't ok at all, it's sexism.

Think about it this way. If we don't win tomorrow we're just at the same point we would have been at if we hadn't made the final. We have nothing to lose, and a hell of a lot to gain if we win. Whatever happens I'm so proud of the lads this season, it's been a great one. COYB 💙

@RyanHudsonGK 100%. Hate it when goalkeepers get blamed for goals that are clearly not their fault at all. 8 times out of 10, the defence and midfield could have done more, once out of 10 it's unlucky like this, once out of 10 the keeper actually does drop a clanger

@danwootton She isn't trying to imply that BAME women should be chosen regardless as some kind of "diversity quota" though, is she? She's just saying that a lack of BAME women reaching that level could be indicative of a wider systemic issue preventing them from reaching it. Big difference

@TheVanaramaNL Your view might be the game isn't in a mess. That doesn't reflect the view of 99% of football fans. The gap between the top and bottom of the pyramid gets wider. Crooks take control of football clubs and drive them into the ground. The interests of the big 6 are prioritised. Mess
