that is some selective bullshit
Seriously. What this tells me is that 70+ people either didn't read the article or they just really have a thing about mixed gender sports. You quoted only the pathetic backpedalling lies he said to try to further justify his actions. BUT FIRST AND FOREMOST he said this (the man you are quoting, Sunderland, is the president)
IT IS WHY THEY WERE KICKED OUT.
You're telling me it took multiple games AND teams for them to become "apparent that it was a girls team " ??? And become a problem. But only until they got far enough because maybe they wouldn't and then SWOB could avoid PR problem all together.
this is a reminder to read the fucking article people
You might come up with a similar conclusion as me, or completely opposite. But OP is patently false and deceptive with their quote and definitive ruling on it, claiming the headline is deceptive! Fuck that.
You might have quoted the wrong part. This is what you're looking for:
Also it looks like the guts of the article is the media statement here:

It's a daft thing to say, and just pours fuel on the conflagration, but it does reveal some insights into the character of the guy.
"Either you agree with me or you hate women" is a pretty silly opening argument...
Damn even stretch armstrong couldn't reach that far
Why not, Israel seems to be doing fine with this kinda opening
