Don't think anyone would moan if we won the first two games of the season 1-0

I can guarantee some will moan if we do that......

Own goals will be top scorer this tournament, the ball just gets booted anywhere

Not to be crude..but Germany, Spain & Brazil aside the standard is incredibly poor…even England
Chalk & cheese from Euros
Watching this China v Haiti match and VAR is embarrassing..3 clear penalties turned down

Women’s football has come a long way, but the amateurish nature of officiating struggles to give it credibility

Women pushing for equality is a interesting concept and to tick a few box's there are a handful of female officials appointed to the prestigious men's tournaments but bizarrely no male officials appear to have been appointed to this competition. Its a womens world.🫣

Of course it is @Clarevoyant 😯 We're a bunch of agitators, disruptors. Deep down, we know that we have all the power, all the glory and the pick of life's opportunities.

It's never enough though and we just love to whinge. Me? I blame it on me hormones. Bl**dy menopause 😳 Give it a year or two and it'll pass. I'll be back in my box and ..... make someone a lovely wife 🤣😛

Back to the football. I was training this morning and only saw a brief glimpse before I left the house.

I get the feeling that we were better than our first game. Another win; it should see us through to the knockout stage.

I remember posting on here, maybe 15 years ago, saying that I believed England's women would bring the World Cup home before the men. I'll stick by it 🙏🙏

I think they have changed the rules for throw ins as most are foul throws.

First 20/30mins was good, scored a good goal but then it was a bit huff and puff after that.

Yet you’re always so quick to (constantly) comment on it.
With this and the delight every time a rapist is cleared it’s beginning to look like you really don’t like women?

Try telling that to the contestants of Miss Netherlands.

Now, that's how you do it. We're underway.
