I was merely pointing out 11 out of 14 posts were about her looks rather than the job she was doing . Not sure that I was trying to put myself on a pedestal with that comment? It was a factual observation . I've now added to it it's now about 15-18 . Don't you think it's interesting? "As if it was a badge of honour " . That's how you interpreted it. If I recall me recalling if had sex with women was a factual statement also. Certainly not a brag. Doesn't make me proud at all . But the act of having sex isn't sexist. But well done in trying to turn this into something about me . I could have done that with you, captainslapper, sabailand and birchencliffe on this thread but what would have been the point in that ? Mine was a factual observation that says SO MUCH ,not necessarily about you and slapps , but about where we are up to as a society. I dare say the women Ted has slept with did so consensually. I wonder if Ms Kennerdale is equally consenting to requests to ‘service’ old men as reward for having the hard work in her chosen career recognised? Women? ive had to block Ted on grinder pm ing the life out of me

Man justifies his own misogyny by blaming non-existing outrage for forcing into taking a stand on behalf of the pricks of this world. I bet a quid he’d vote for Laurence Fox if he lived in london. Thread about a female employee Thus far 11 out of 14 posts responding to the OP have been related to what she looks like Sexism doesn't exist in 2021 though zzzzzzzz You know that groan that you hear when you walk in a room... it isnt the door.

The Cowshed Loyal, or NSL as it was at the time would never of got to where it has had it not have been for staff like Robyn. Herself, Rachel and Boothy fought fearlessly for the fans to have more freedoms in the stadium during that first couple of years. She was a pivotal voice in getting things such as the south stand and the new segregation system we have in the south stand. Also at a time when the safety policies which made any form of flags, displays, banners or any other tifo impossible, possible, by working with the fans and the safety action group as well as John Robinson on trying to find middle ground. The club has some gems working in its ranks behind the scenes, I hope they understand that and not forget the efforts that staff like Robyn Kennerdale & Rachel Taylor have gone to to give fans a better match day experience. Please, for gods sake, "of got" have got. Yes I am an old pillock but of got doesn't make sense.

As Robyn’s job is Town’s ‘Supporter Services Manager’, I wouldn’t be surprised if she regularly reads this forum and may even have an account so that she can track, monitor and react to supporter views/opinions/moods. A thread with her name on would more than likely draw her attention. So, one would wonder at her thoughts when reading some of the comments that have been made, regardless of the banterous excuses some of us men make in that it’s harmless and meant as a compliment.
She’s recently celebrated 15 years working at Town so is one of the un-heralded behind-the-scenes cogs that keeps the club ticking over. One or two on this small thread attest at the positive things she has done and instrumental in some of the changes that have happened for us the fans.
Having made the original post, with a link to an interview that celebrated her abilities and contribution to Town, I was hoping, perhaps a little naively, that the comments would reflect this rather than degenerate into something a little less base, particularly in these more enlightened times.
Apologies for going off on one, but as the father of two daughters, both young women now, some of the misogynistic abuse that they get and tell me about when out and about or at work from leery boys/men/old men puts me a little on the defensive.

Good luck to her, gender or looks should be irrelevant.
Cue all the middle class liberal PC types, with their she is a woman. Their always the first to point out gender, race, sexuality but their not sexist, racist, or anti LGBT.
Personally the only people I can't stand are middle class liberal PC types, their pathetically predictable.

Can’t believe some are upset by comments made on here that were surely just meant in a light hearted way.
I’m convinced that in another 5 years it will be illegal to laugh.

Good to see opportunities given by the club and seems to be doing well with the job too. She could emulate Karren Brady one day (not hard to do looks wise anyway Robyn is a million times better).

Oh dear, misogynistic, come on, have you read a thread about Schindler, attractive bloke? Relatively speaking, it seams rather balanced & respectful. Equality is not about men not being able to say women are attractive, when women can comment men are attractive. Do you accept women can say some women are attractive & men (me) said a man was attractive?

So let's assume it's your wife, or your daughter, who's worked hard and achieved success in an industry where 99% of the household names, decision makers, power-brokers etc are male, and then an article highlighting those achievements is met with a string of comments from men alluding to her perceived sexual attractiveness. Still feeling lighthearted? Thought not.

Am not surprised, taking selfies sporting ladies leopardskin thongs with your tiddler and nutsack folded back and hidden up the crack of your arse.
Your going to be bombarded with offers from strange deviants, I only had a quick look myself.

Jesus Christ It wasn't a good idea to bring JC into it. When the self proclaimed liberal intelligentsia can't see they are in denial about genetics & evolution, stupidity has reached it's epiphany! You will be telling us covid was God's work next, mean fucker wasn't he? Oh, wait a minute, I misunderstood all that 'education' I got at Sunday school, not!

Try watching some animal programms on TV, it might be the starting point of some radical new ideas, for you?
