Women's football success

[All uphill]

I'm a football-phobe normally, but delighted to see such positive images of women being successful.

How about you?

Yay .
Go the footballing women.. 😊

Did we win yet??

And if so do we get to lord it over them pesky germins for the next sixty odd years??

It would never have happened if it hadn't been for Brexit!

Something like that. I have just watched the end of the game at friends' barbecue. Two (female) football fans were making the most egregious sexist comments. There is no hope.

No one cares anymore….all threads just merge into one now.

Make your mind up.

Let's celebrate a good news story, bollocks to that, let's have an argument, fark me!

On a more positive note, well done on beating the Germans.

This tournament, and England's success, has probably been a revelation to many and hopefully will put to bed for good the notion that women cannot play football.

As in any sport the women cannot be as physically strong as the men but there is no reason at all why the skill level, or the tactical know-how, and the intensity cannot equal the men. Perhaps, as in athletics, tennis and many other sports, it will start getting the recognition it deserves in its own rights, and the crowds at womens' club matches start getting bigger. Hopefully it will help drag the quality of the other home nations up with it.

It would be interesting if Serena Wiegman would ever be accepted as manager of a senior mens' football team, but perhaps that is still some way off.
