Barry Glendenning’s defence of women’s football (Game’s dinosaurs still have an axe to grind but it’s getting duller by the day, Sport, 27 August) would look more convincing if the sport pages’ match coverage of the Continental Tyres Cup didn’t consist of 70-odd words from the Press Association (barely the length of this letter), in contrast to more than nine pages on the English Premier League.
