Another woman on here that posts folks. A few but not loads of women in the canton stand but you do see a lot in general around the ground these days. I shout and always chant like f**k and generally carry on like an average canton stand lunatic so i consider i enhance rather than detract from the atmos. When i first went to ninian with my mates dad i remember usually being the only girl on the terraces, there were hardly any females there in the 80s. I know what you all think about girls and football but at least you might marry someone that wants to watch champions league instead of eastenders? Im gay tho sorry ;-)

with 2 daughters and a wife, football is my sanctuary.

I know you're only repeating what Vince has told you, but I don't believe a word of it, so allegedly approx 7/8,000 at home games are women ? I wouldn't care if it was, in fact I'd welcome it, but it's clearly not true.

I don't or wouldn't have a problem if it was true, but there is absolutely not a chance that 3 or more in every 10 people in the ground are women?
I challenge anybody in any part of the ground to randomly do a check in a few directions from their seats , it's not happening, not even close to those figures in the Family stand, crazy stats!

Vince said over 30% of City's home crowds of 27,000 plus are woman this season :shock:

In the 80's & 90's it was less than 2%.

I don't think it's that many but the five behind me sound like moaning old women half the time :laughing6:

Cheers, but Vince got these figures direct from our club :thumbup:

It's not true, simple as that, whether it officially came from the club or not.

There's a female I've had the unfortunate experience of sitting behind in the ninian - language is utter filth & have never heard that from men down the city- ninian park or ccs.

I'm not a prude but think women should so some class.
