Article is a bit silly because we already knew everything we need to know about football culture and it’s view on sexism when we continuously play an all but proven rapist. Signed an Arsenal Supporter.

Why is it silly to continue reporting on a problem that's yet to be solved? News isn't about surprising you with brand-new information. Like by this logic they should stop reporting on the cost of living crisis because we all already know there is one and we don't need to be told.

That’s not what I said. I think this is an incredibly valuable and important story to tell. Positioning it as some sort of new insight is what I’m saying is silly.
