Lefty here.... Definitely not Liberal.... I agree. It's not my thing, seems cringey and kind of bizarre in this day but they evidently enjoy it so why not let them go ahead. It's creepy if some bloke is instigating it, but I'll trust their judgement. On a side note, my ex used to be one of those track side ladies in Brazil and there was an expectation that they're basically call girls who provide 'other services' to motor racing teams. Those who refused got an image of being frigid and typically didn't last in the agency, so they'd move to another and then the same scenario repeats itself

This post has been merged from a topic called 'The end of the Crystals is nigh' by Penge Eagle Seems the Crystals enjoy it, I certainly think it's great hearing Glad All Over and seeing the cheering beauties when players march on to the pitch. I'm watching via TV from Chiang Mai and see the Crystals as part of our matchday package...

These ladies choose to do this job they are not slaves or paid very little and are treated well it also opens up other work for them away from F1 This whole women power play at minute has gone over the top it's constant attacking of men lucky women are not in charge of military I could see wars starting.

So you think women should have the freedom to pick and choose jobs like this, but that stopping that is an attack on men?
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

A sports jurno from the Mirror has reported today that CPFC has dismissed calls for the cheerleaders to be axed, pointing out that they raise a lot of money for charity.

The darts have abandoned the use of walk-on girls, so cheerleaders, as the embodiment of decadence and debauchery, should be next. I for one look forward to a puritanical life with no naked flesh or any form of filth. Not!!!! Yes - ban all those cavernous embonpoint supporters of Leeds etc etc exposing their rotund paunches held in front of them like lambeg drums.

Is it sexist and demeaning to men when young girls in their hundreds are screaming at Ashley Banjo and his crew? I don't think so, but as soon as women put on an outfit and dance or parade then the PC brigade decide it's no longer for this world. I am glad I'm in my mid 50's now and don't have to put up with a lifetime succombing to the whims of those who think they are improving the world.

All this "PC Brigade" stuff raises my hackles to the extent that I rear up like a shocked dray horse.Makes my blood boil.

Leave the Crystals alone, I would be far more worried about the mascots, their identity is more hidden than a woman wearing a burka, but everyone seems to want to let their kids play with them.

The world is slowly but surely going mad.
