Long and didn’t finish but read like a hit piece more than a thing piece.
Didn’t really attempt to critique her opinions or offer a different perspective
Right win tomorrow for Leslie just do it!!
Some think she is,i don't.
Just defensive of womens only spaces.
A bit like Sharon Davies and female sport.
I don’t think she is either.
I’m all in with agreement with Sharon aswell…….
You really do need to keep up with the times Richard - feelings first, facts third.
He may not be a notable fan but his tattoo certainly is 
This Tottenham fan went to extreme lengths to show his love for the clubCredit: Getty
Another case of ink on the head, this die-hard Spurs fan has let everybody know who he supports by getting "Tottenham Till I Die" on the back of his head.
There are also two huge club badges either side of the writing, meaning you simply cannot miss this man and his tattoo when at a game.

Britney Spears, far from being as American as apple pie, apparently has her roots firmly in North London - Tottenham, to be precise.
Records show that the great-grandparents of the singer, pictured, were Londoners and like their 26-year-old descendant - just as prone to scandal.
Details of her ancestors in the London Metropolitan Archives reveal that her great-grandparents probably 'lived in sin' before they got around to getting married.
The 26-year-old star, who made a triumphant return at the MTV Video Music Awards this week, is descended from George Anthony Portell and Lillian Esther Lewis.
Britney Spurs: A British archive has revealed Britney's family originally hail from London's, Tottenham. A mocked-up image shows the singer in a Tottenham Hotspur football shirt
Parish records show they married at St John's Church in Tottenham in 1923, but they both gave the same address on the marriage certificate, indicating they were already living together - a scandal at the time.
The couple had a daughter, Britney's grandmother Lillian Woolmore-Portell, who married US Navy sailor Barnett O'Field Bridges in London during the Second World War.
They moved to a farm near New Orleans and had three children, including Miss Spears's mother Lynne.
Britney's secret will be on show when the archives go online - with the records of more than 77m people available.
Laurence Ward, head of digital resources at the archives, said there could be an innocent explanation.
He said: 'Her great-grandparents have certainly listed the same address in the records for their marriage.
'But as her great-grandfather is recorded as being an able seaman, he may have been away with the Navy a lot. They could have recorded the same address for convenience.'

That article was removed because the questions and answers were attributed to Rowetta but were actually from Mathew Horne (Gavin and Stacey).
Easy mistake to make.
Exceptional stuff from the Graun.
I'd rather have him listed among infamous/notorious fans...

PUNCHER'S CHANCE
The 33-year-old had his first football fight aged just 14 and swiftly rose up the firm.
Dante Hawkins joined the Tottenham firm as a teenager
Hawkins even featured in a BBC documentary about football hooliganism, and received a three-year banning order from games at 17.
Thinking he was scrapping with a Chelsea fan, Hawkins once mistakenly punched a pal from his own firm.
Asked about getting into it with one of his own while appearing on Anything Goes With James English, he said: "I have yeah. To be fair, I done that to one of my pals, one of the young lot.
"I did feel bad about it after but I didn’t know who he was, it was a bit dark. I did feel sorry for him.
"I did actually think he was Chelsea. I was hitting him, going ‘you Chelsea c***’, bang, bang, bang and the whole time it was him.
"I felt bad about it after I’m not gonna lie, I did. But we’re still mates, but I wish it was a Chelsea geezer, I was gutted."
Further reminiscing about his hooligan days, Hawkins admitted that he liked it when Spurs would get trounced.
He added: "Tottenham used to lose all the time, it used to be a lot more volatile.
"And I’d like it because we’d lose like 4-0 to [Manchester] United and there’d be 100 people in the street wanting it to go off.
"It would be more of a laugh, but when you won people came out more jolly."
Hawkins ditched the hooligan lifestyle following a spell in prison and has since turned to MMA.
He goes by the name "The Bull" and has compiled a 4-1 record, with his last three fights coming on Raged MMA cards.
