The men in England been saying they’re gonna bring it home for yrs. looks like the women got fed up and said ffs, we’ll bring it home!!
If there were any female members of this board I’m pretty sure this thread would have killed them off.
Piss off , it didn't encourage preying on little girls which is what has been suggested
And I am certainly not going to be lectured on misogyny and offensive by a bloke who would take great delight in showing the lads on the back of the bus fanny photos on his mobile phone
It was a piss take . Its been removed , its no big deal . But TLG is like the trendy student on a field trip to Paris who pretends to be right on with the women yet is badgering away trying to get his leg over when the night draws in
He's in no position to lecture anyone given his mobile phone gallery . Unless it was all a joke ?
You really are a pathetic individual. In every respect.
Maybe we should start a sweep now -
How many MBEs/other honours will be given to the women's team in the new year honours?
Also, where did this "Lionesses" come from?
The men's team aren't called Lions, are they?
The only Lions (as far as I know) in British sport are the Rugby Union British & Irish(not English) Lions.
Yeah, I had a few texts about it this morning. Sometimes kids go free, not sure about the Slovenia match. I prefer watching at CSS. At Newport, in the main stand, it's like a cow shed and very claustrophobic! Definitely go for it for the Slovenia match. It's been a bit like Wales mens team back in the day where it's been so close but ended in heartbreak. Fingers crossed (again) for September. It's worth it to see Jess Fishlock play. She's 35 now and won't be going on much longer but has been a great player for Wales.
I think what has surprised me the most about the womens win is that I just don’t care at all. And I mean not remotely, if it was the mens Id be really annoyed with England winning a tournament, but nothing. I just don’t really find it very interesting and actually forgot the game was on so didn’t see it.
Reason I don’t think it’s sexist is that lots of people with love for the game have it ingrained from a young age and from when you get into it most of the news, history or the bigger/more publicised news with clubs, teams, players etc is all towards the mens team. So over the years you’re invested into it (I don’t mean financially but emotionally). You know the players, you know the history between teams when they play each other. You’re hooked and it’s something lots of us move away from. The womens team for me then is MK dons, a new team, it isn’t anymore relevant than going to watch a different club and I don’t have the time or interest in going to watch a different team.
Only thing I find mildly irritating is when sports news will say EG there’s been a goal between arsenal and Chelsea, which is quite confusing as first instinct is to try and find if the game is on. They don’t do that with the u21 teams.
I hope that the win will be a springboard for womens football, and congrats to them for winning it but I think for lots of generations it’s too late and it’ll build with a younger crowd
