Lionesses

Absolutely cooking Norway down the right.. Beth Mead stand out on the pitch

 

Really? I thought it was a bit of a nonsense.

8 0 is embarrassing to say its the finals of a major tournament. The gap between the top teams and the rest is far too big.

 

It's a joke they disrupt normal TV for this nonesense.

 

Well played ladies
Last few years they have improved by leaps and bounds
Be good to see them enter one of our tinpot cup and see how they do

 

Women's football receives airtime for equality and diversity purposes, not for how good it is. In reality the best women's teams wouldn't be able to compete with Sunday league men. However, anything to blur the gender lines and promote men being feminine and women being masculine is superb in the woke media, so all this is not surprising.

All this attention it's getting is essentially just virtue signalling. It will only go so far under these false pretenses.

 

Last year Athletico Bilbao, Spanish women's league champions, played their U16s and lost 6-0.

I watched last night's match and there was some good stuff mixed in with some pretty ordinary stuff. I can't imagine watching it regularly and agree it gets more airtime than its level merits.

 

I have taken numerous games in as I’m sure many of those whom are of a similar mindset have.

Each to their own, i would never begrudge someone for genuinely enjoying women’s football.

Whilst I’ve nothing against women’s football, it’s the ridiculous over-exposure it gets, not on merit, that irks people the wrong way.

edit - just recalled reading about Gremio 15 year olds beating Brazil’s women’s national team 6-0 last year.

@Biker i don’t think I’m far off the mark at all to be honest. I reckon a Bradford Sunday league men’s team would beat England women.

 

"Some good pins on them"?

No offence but I'll probably ignore your opinion on the entertainment value and standard of football if that's a qualifying point.

 

Not sure it’s me that’s the miserable one wanting to watch that shower…

 

Must have sold Thousands of those Nike England shirts in White with Silver badge, Most of the crowds seem to be wearing it,

 

So do the female commentators in ALL football. I’m not misogynistic by any means but nothing fits. It’s tokenism at its worst in my opinion. If they are good enough then fine, but none are, again imho.
