No diving, no cheating, no time wasting. They make the "men" look utterly embarassing Probably could beat a few mens teams too. Technical ability is on a par. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The physical difference is too great. The US women's team got soundly beaten by Dallas FC under 15s a few years back. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not compared it to the mens game, I think that's why. Only mens teams they'd beat though is pub sides. It's not worth comparing, enjoy for what it is.

And yes I've opened a thread called "women's euros" just to make that comment. Same here. I will follow the results after the fact and see how they are getting on but I just can't watch the games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sw1867 Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Been tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Some of the performances were outstanding and the commitment and desire was something to admire in what ever form of sport you are watching. I can see the bits that don’t match up to the mens game but there is a hell of a lot that is just as good and dare I say it, better. I’d get behind England in a game of tiddle winks, will certainly be backing them on Sunday 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wouldn't beat a decent men's pub team. Whichever pub team that topped the Sheffield league would beat them by 3 clear goals. Nice that they are doing well though I'll be cheering them on in the finals. That's if there's nowt on the other side 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accept it for what it is, we don't need to treat them like children. Twitter is calling for Southgate to be replaced by the women's coach ffs. I'm not a Southgate fan, but come on. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geedee Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I watched most of the game last night its the first time i can recall watching women's football. I enjoyed the game and will try to watch the game on Sunday. Because of the lack of physicality It reminds me of watching good quality academy football. Good luck to the girls on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdial Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Best thing about the game was when we scored before half time the team then came out attacking instead of the Southgate policy of sitting back on a lead in a big game. She even took off the main striker and changed big name players which the mens team would never do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post @owlstalk Posted July 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2022 There's gonna be lots of girls picking up a football and playing the game now, and going to watch more games live too. The best legacy these Euros could leave though is that men finally, once and for all, just SHUT UP slating Women's football and grow up. And to be fair I've seen there are a few less idiotic posts from blokes and that's such a great positive thing 15 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Edgy here to tell us about something he isn't interested in, by reading the site, looking for a thread about the women's football, then clicking into the thread about womens football, then reading the thread about women's football, then scrolling down to the bottom and posting about womens football And then is now (I guarantee this is happening - we will see) reading the replies in the thread about womens football to see if his post about not liking womens football has got him some attention Tenner says he keeps posting in this thread too to make it all about HIM instead of the women playing the football Gut feeling... Let's see how the thread plays out. I'll leave his replies in the thread so you can see how he does.. 1 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
