And @crodonilson toddles off to his loft apartment bed in Whitechapel, tittering at the mayhem he has once again triggered.
Dear oh dear.
Dear oh dear.
How about comedy?

My view is Hayes has acted pretty badly here, and bringing sex into it was totally uncalled for and inappropriate.
I don’t really watch women’s football much but I always enjoy her as an analyst.
But yeah, not good this time.

Maybe the women’s game should use the term manbags for balance?

The only aggression I’ve seen in this story at all is from Hayes.
She came across as a very bad loser as well.

He got a card for it, and there was suggestion he could have had a red, so I suspect his verbal treatment was less than appropriate. Hayes suggested he squared up to Cuthbert, I've not seen that in any replay I've seen.
I'm quite fond of comedy, but the repeated "do you know the offside rule" and "why don't you get back to the kitchen" on here, and with several of the people on here who also post on the Facebook version of this site, pretty much shows their mysogynistic views of women in football and women in general. You can all give me cr*p for calling it out, or patronise me telling me to "just scroll on by" and or "its just humour" but that still doesn't make it right on any level.
I love womens sport. I also like the idea that womens teams should be managed by women. As Chelsea are the only one of the "top 4" in the WSL to be managed by a woman, I've always been an Emma Hayes (and by extension Chelsea Women) fan. If Weigman had done the "decent thing" and left after the Womens World Cup final debacle, I would have liked to have seen Hayes as the next England manager.
That was before her behaviour on Sunday. To shove the Arsenal manager in the chest when he went to shake her hand was not the way to behave.
Chelsea are still fighting in three comps with a squad that has many serious / long term injuries. (Arsenal lost Mead, Williamson and Meidema last season and beginning of this all with ACLs.)
The pressure is clearly telling on Hayes. Her behaviour on Sunday was unacceptable and she should be punished for it. I really hope she ends her last WSL season empty-handed. Man City for the WSL title.

I do feel the fun has disappeared with the under 40s nowadays, my wife is happy for the jokes as she is happy to use her amazing cooking skills to provide. I am also very happy to give her a running commentary of what happening on the TV as she is in the kitchen. It really is a win win.
No seriously, I do feel the separation of partners, ie one in the shed/garden and one doing things inside the house really does work for a good team marriage and plenty of joking either way while life goes on. It might just be why marriages last longer with the boomers.
I agree women manager would be great for them, but there isn't enough experience to make that more common place yet. Also women have a disadvantage in losing quite a few years in having children, it's very hard for them to keep getting experienced through the lost years. They will come, but it will take time.

Eh, there are plenty of women footballers who are playing at the highest level after having children and plenty of women in management roles in every industry after having children
Yes there are, but you need to live and breathe football, because it's a profession that if you don't do that your be lucky to make non league, it's a hobby to billions of people worldwide which started from almost birth!
The money in football today means you almost need 24/7 involvement over many consistent years to get the few management jobs available. There must be many men on the dole queue in management, why can't they manage the ladies? I wonder how many women could step up to mange a premier league side, who would be the first? Maybe RDZ goes and Emma comes into to the Albion, let's face it she has some fire in her belly.

Looked to me like he got booked for remonstrating with the fourth official
Did he square up to Cuthbert? She seemed to run 5 yards to get in his face. He just stood there.
Emma Hayes behaviour shows what a poor loser she is.

I'm assuming Hayes didnt fully see what happened and went on crowd reaction/player reaction.
Her reaction at the final whistle was bizarre.
