And I'm watching bits of it but I dunno its just not 'clicked' like it has for some on here. I couldn't tell you half of the players on England's team let alone any of the others and I'm no follower of women's football either, but I'm also not anti either, what's point? Look what it means to these people on the pitch and in the crowd and what it could spur them on to do and achieve in life. Quote

Managed to watch the last 10 mins, bit pissed off as I now realise it was the euros and not the World Cup they’ve won, I genuinely thought it was the big one. Oh well Quote

Oh I get the legacy from this will be fantastic for the women's game and sport for girls etc. Just when they scored it registered more like one leg of my 10 fold Acca coming in. Rather than full blown mental celebration like if Bolton or England mens had scored. Quote
London Wanderer Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 Imagine popping into the Formula1 or tennis thread to tell everyone you don't care whilst they're celebrating an achievement 😆 Quote

Rizlar Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 Watched all the England games and enjoyed them all great result well done to them says a lot about Phil Neville as a manager ! Quote

Mounts Kipper Posted July 31, 2022 Posted July 31, 2022 Football has been fantastic outlet for me as a fan, player and coach, it’s brilliant that girls can experience the beautiful game like millions of men have been able to. Well done to the lionesses. Quote
