Even our women's team is useless

[Taunton Blue Genie]

Birmingham v. Everton last night was a good quality as was Norway Wales a week or so back. Think what we saw was primarily the consequence of first game back from lockdown - don't forget how rusty both Wales and England's senior men's sides were against Finland and Iceland respectively - and not being fully professional with the smaller budgets/competing priorities that arise from that.

Despite this, I still think there were moments of quality, the Swansea RB for example, and hope it's the first game of many on TV so game can continue to grow here.

I only saw a couple of minutes of the Norway women v Wales women game - and it included the pathetic goalkeeping error that let the Norwegians score. It can be seen at 1 min 15 secs on this video:

Yeah not good, she loses the flight of the ball distracted by the oncoming players I think

But I could show you the clip of David Seaman against Ronaldinho in return and if that was your three minute experience of him as a keeper then you would have a very different impression of how good he was/how good men's football is. For a poster who is usually quite sensible, you do seem fixated on that one moment of bad play.

I didn't suggest that the error summed up women's football, old fruit.
Best re-read what I actually wrote and not imagine that it was a fixation of any description.

You watched a women's football game for a "couple of minutes", watched so closely you didn't realise which colour Wales were playing in so you first thought it was a Norwegian error and now have brought up that moment in two separate threads, though admittedly the first time was just commenting on the game. This time however was in response to me talking about the quality, and sometimes lack of it, in the women's game.

How would you like me to read it?

I referred to an isolated incident and didn't suggest for one minute that it characterised the women's game in general. The fact that I only watched a couple of minutes of the game also made clear that I was in no position to make any sort of generalisation. I think you are on the wrong horse here....
