There's no specific section in the premier league handbook that says women cannot play for a mens team.
However, there are references specifically to players being "him" or "his" throughout the entire 339 page document.
I'm sure this would result in 2 scenarios
1 - She's not good enough so either doesn't make it or the other 19 teams don't give a fuck, or
2 - She's good and other teams question the rules. They'll point to the absence of a rule that says she can't play for a mens team but use the repeated reference to him/his/men/boys in the rulebook to argue it is implied this is a male only sport.

Not at all.

You can believe that the WSL and PL are totally separate entities, with no crossover and should be treate in their own right and not have an issue with women.

There is a thread for THFC women. Why not use that to talk about THFC women transfers?

First, Spurs are well coved with CMF - Højbjerg, Bentancur, Bissouma, Skipp - all EPL proven, so he's not necessarily better than any of them them anyway.
Besides, he's been linked with so many top clubs - from Real M., to Juve to Bayern to Chelksi & Man Utd - but none of them seem to be keen on him. And he's 27 now. It makes one wonder why he's still at Lazio.
There are better ways for Spurs to spend €50m+

onestly, skipp does not give any guarantee.
SMS would complete our midfield, and also give us the chance to play some matches with 352

It's getting more and more difficult to express any opinion because there are countless pressure groups that jump on any part of your statement. You have to stay indoors and never ever speak again because as soon as you put together a coherent sentence, somebody will find something to be offended about. There's a whole profession of people looking for something to be offended about. I'm fairly left wing and very liberal and accepting but I think we passed "ridiculous" a few years ago.
One cultural thing I simply don't understand is why calling a black person a "N..." is the ultimate insult but they refer to each other this way all the time...I'm Jewish but I never come across other Jewish calling each other kike or jewboy...it's completely baffling.

The N word is horrifyingly offensive. It was invented to be a put down. But then they have taken it and used it in the same way as we have with Yid. And IMO, Yid, an actual word, which is simply short for Yiddish which is an actual recognised non offensive word. But we get offended (even though we're not Jewish) when getting called Yid by non Spurs fans
Swings and round about.

FA and PL rules differ? Or do PL rules supplement FA rules?

I agree. For Reggy at least, I really don't understand why he has been ostracised.

Whether you think Sess is better than or him or whether Sess's HG status is more important, Reggy can still play a part until he leaves.

If Perisic and Sess are both injured, who do we play in that role? Davies in LB and bring in Sanchez, is that better than Reggy who has approx the same stats as Sess last season, and was until his injury, first choice? Didn't we play Doherty back in LB and it was hopeless?

Ndombele deserves what he gets. Lo Celso, i'm not sure, btu Reggy definitely doesn't. I can only assume he and Conte had a fight behind the scenes.
 
Why the fuck are people talking about Nuno here?

Fuck off and move on. That was a miserable time. Can we not just enjoy the current vibes.

Some people want a fight all the time

I guess but if the club want them to leave there's not really much point of accommodating him, we've done that too much in the past which is why we struggle to get rid of players, seems like some think this place is a holiday camp and prefer to sit on their contracts as opposed to just leaving.
