I think that's harsh. Some women's footballers are very skilful. I'd equate it to good u16 football. What lets down ladies football big time is the standard of goalkeeping. It's atrocious.
Absolutely, there have been decent keepers in fairness, our own county had a good one going back a decade ago, but all too often you'd have keepers of a standard that shooting at goal against them is akin to playing beginner level on FIFA.

They seem to always just pick the fattest girl in the village and stick her in the goals.

Wrapping yourself around a lamppost i.e. motor bike racing

Seems to be popular in Norn Iron. Would it be a cross-community thing or just for themmuns?

One of the few things the prods and the taigs seem to enjoy equally.

Golf.  For the life of me I don't see why people find it exciting.
Horse racing. Grinds my gears that they just call it "racing" as if there's no other form of racing.
UFC. Bloody awful looking. At least boxing has a bit of structure to it.

1) NBA
2) Any "race type event" using a combustion engine

Always thought motorcycling was more of a unionist pursuit myself. Rallying seems to get a good following from either side

Yeah I would agree with that. The NW200 and such would be a mainly a 'themuns' event (although not exclusively)

American Football & Baseball. Just don't see the point in either.

Sailing. One of the few Olympic events I won't watch and still don't really understand how the scoring works.

On top of that, it's a completely elitist sport, access to which is well beyond the means of most.
