You have to hand it to England. This is managing tournament play with knobs on. They can only beat what’s in front of thin and the best teams have crumbled. Think they will win it now.
Now that’s a proper lol 😂. I genuinely didn’t mean to tee that up but glad to see @DamoNorthStand knock it down the fairway !!
I trust our (male) squad was watching the Aus/England semi today .. perfect lessons in both tenacious defending (England) and, more importantly, attacking, shooting and scoring (both teams Very good game played in a good spirit in front of a huge crowd .. England in a football World Cup final, first time since 1966
this is what I mean about both sides with meaningless comparisons. England men’s are doing just fine. Unless you’re talking about Charlton? Which is even more pointless.
Well done girls, hopefully put in a big performance on Sunday, as Spain are a class side.
Class side who England beat in the 1/4 finals of the Euro championship
Who were missing plenty of first team players and wasted some real guilt edge chances.
So now the Lauren James question comes back into the equation.
start with the same team, get James on to change it if needed on Sunday
Absolutely agree, she doesn't deserve to start anyway as her actions could've cost us dearly. The XI that started the quarter and semi do deserve to start. I've no doubt she'll come on and play some part anyway.
England have won 13 matches in a row in the Euro's and World Cup.
One more to go.
Son was down the end that Toone scored her great goal and Kerr scored her fantastic goal.
I will obviously tip Spain for life insurance reasons.
No, they only drew with Nigeria.
We have won 13 matches in a row in Euro's and WC. We went to extra time against Spain in Euro's ( I was behind the goal for Stanway's winner in that Q.Final) and we beat Nigeria on penalties.
I have just checked the Rules and England have definitely won all 13 games.👍 The bookies rules are different and those leeches can call it a draw before ET.
Chole Kelly who learnt her trade in the cages of west London( with six brothers) wins the prize for the most blatant piece of Shithousery with the extra ball on the pitch. As subtle as an air raid but you have to love her❤️

Too true. No Hermoso or Putellas to finish off the moves when they were skinning England down the flanks. They now have the talented 19 year old Salma Paralluelo on the left flank so Lucy Bronze (was good today) will need to be sharp. Plus both Hermoso and Putellas are in this WC.
I thought Hemp would star in the Euros but despite her playing her part and us winning them, she didn't stand out as much as her potential might have suggested. This tournament she seems to be improving every game and is a key player for us. Her and Russo battle for everything, including scraps which has led to goals too.
Not just in England that Trains can be rubbish. 100k people in ground and in parks, pubs trying to get home with only a few trains running because of a fault.
Saying the Women’s team are doing better than the men? What have I missed?
Please tell me why it’s a shit comment.
First of all, well done to the lionesses. About time their potential bonus payments were sorted out for if they were to win on Sunday. By making it to their world cup final, the women have achieved in Australia 2023 what the men have failed to achieve in theirs since 1966 on home soil.
That's just a fact, like it or not and undeniable even by those who might consider it a shit comment because they consider such comparisons to be meaningless.

Oh I see, I’ve offended some male egos, that women could be better and while it may be a different game, I don’t think that should devalue it at all.
The men and England were the home of football but have, as you say done next to nothing since ‘66.
In the short history of the Women’s game, I think they’ve done very well and deserve the praise, even if the men might feel they’ve had their nose put out of joint.

I don't even understand what comparison you are trying to make to be honest - The women have made 2 major finals so have the men.
They have made 2 world cup semi finals before being knocked out. So have the men. (perennial quarter finalists as well I see looking at the history)
If there is any comparison to be made at this point (which there really isn't but even humouring you) they have a near identical record at international level in terms of major tournaments.

Just missing Antarctica FC for the full set.
Really enjoyed the game today. Surely we'll be too strong for Spain, but you never know...
