Perhaps your previous comments on women’s football, if they exist, might explain why you have this attitude. But without that knowledge, I would say that your comment has more to say about you than women’s football.
Apologies if my reading between the line is off the mark!
How can the APL convince casual fans the A-League Men is worth supporting?
A comment regarding women’s football by SS – TheSecretScout, I felt necessary to respond to directly, highlights to me an underlying problem which impacts football where I live, and I suspect also impacts the A League.
It is a view that is indicative of a narrow tribal nature that seems to exist in many clubs, local through apparently to A League. The narrowness enables exclusivity; is not inclusive. Clubs and organising bodies, in this case the APL, act like boys clubs, in self interest. Losing sight of a bigger picture.

Agree that too many individuals at club and football organisations ( state and national federations, APL) have a narrow, agenda driven focus. This is often detrimental to interests of the sport more generally. It is disappointing to read and hear from those that are clearly heavily invested in the game when their comments are detrimental to so many others involved in the game. Unite and grow the game.
