I may get pelters for this...... How is the match day experience any different for women than it is for men?

Reading stories from women is that they are getting touched and spoken to inappropriately by men.

I'd think the answer to that question is fairly obvious.

Some women need to think about things like getting home safely.

Most women experience harassment or unwanted attention inside and outside of the ground. The atmosphere in and around the stadium could, can be intimidating due to excessive drinking and the behaviour of others.

Add that to the facilities inside the ground as well. The experience of attending games is a lot different to men.

Fair enough, I didn't really think about it from the safety or harassment aspect.

They get surrounded by pissed-up feckwits making the experience pretty grim.

Although some of the women sorts in the NE are the first to give it out! There’s some scary ones about lol
