Anyone watching the Women’s Euros?
I really enjoyed the last tournament, it felt like there was real momentum in the development of the women’s game. But I have to say, the standard this time around seems to have taken a step backwards. I don’t mean to sound disrespectful, but watching Iceland vs Finland honestly feels more like a Sunday league match than a top-tier international competition.

Also, I couldn’t help but notice the complete absence of any male representation in the studio during the coverage. That seems a bit one sided, especially considering the ongoing conversation about equality , particularly when it comes to sponsorship and commercial support.

Great to bet on though, betting on player shots is printing money

The games between the better sides will be a good watch but to be honest like many men’s tournaments these days with increased number of teams there will be some dross to watch.

Spain will take some beating. One thing I like with women's football is no theatrics or time wasting. They need to stop this taking the knee nonsense though.

It is refreshing not to see players falling down like they've been shot. I think the tournament will improve when the better sides are involved. Tomorrow's night game might be interesting between Spain & Portugal

I enjoyed watching Lucerne u15 boys thrashing the Switzerland women's national team 7-1 in a warm up match, straight after Alisha Lehemann was banging on about equal pay....😏

Don't understand the need for disrespect or even sneers, here.

It's just plain daft to compare womens with mens footie.

And of course some of the games will be low key, in the same way some in male competitions can lack purpose.

I'll be backing our lasses all the way, though - infact I'm far more intetested in them than any of the sides in that coffer filling non event currently happening in the 'States...

I mentioned to a few friends that I'd seen a version of our new away strip in a Pale green, which I quite liked. Watching today's Euros I notice that the Italians are wearing something very similar, which I think looks good.

Have to say no problem with it but more interested in what CFC are shaping up like as we approach the season.
