Fair enough, but 4 corners were incorrectly given as goal kicks, one clear elbow ignored, multiple freekicks given when either the ball was cleanly won or given the wrong way, got in the way of play twice nearly costing England a goal on one occasion ,booking a Sweden player when they clearly won t...

It's painful. There's a clamour for equal recognition and commercial aspects of the women's game, but these ladies her tonight are really struggling to strike the ball. They're supposed to be professionals after all Lauren Janes can kick like a mule but like every arrogant 'super player' she thinks...

That has to be the worst set of penalties, at international level....ever.

IanMcL

They j7st side foot it at no pace!

IanMcL

The penalties are appalling.

IanMcL

Well I have flagged off the keeper, so let's hope she comes good and I eat my words.

Earps was good at pens and I think the Swedish keeper may be too.

IanMcL

England keeper comes and never gets the ball!

First Hartman, now McCoy. This is it!

They hold the keys to our future. Let's hope they hit the right note.

The highlight of the evening for me is Ellen White. Beautiful satin blouse, and some useful comments plus brought others into the points, as though she was the presenter. I like women talking about their football.

Almost as hilarious as the officials collective performance to this point. The allowing if several foul throws in the first 5 minutes told you all you need to know

I was thinking more of the control and spotting of feet left in etc.

Big name in her day.

Country too.

Sad news
I remember as a youngster listening to her song “Stupid Cupid “
She was the first female singer I remember and then of course Alma Cogan and wonderful Dusty Springfield
RIP

Earps made herself unavailable.

Because she had lost her place to the footwork girl.

I cannot understand why Hampson was preferred to Earps, on goal. Earls was actually a really good (for women) keeper and Hampson is not. There for her footwork and yet 3 times, so far, her first touch has caused issues and not once has any footwork been of value. I also think Earps would have come i...

Tried his best for Burnley on and off the pitch.

Good luck to the lad.

James Herriot stories always do that to me.

Gervais Phinn and his stories from his teaching experiences too.

IanMcL

Tremendous career and did his bit for us, when called upon.

How have you read that and jumped to the conclusion that Burnley will be loaning players out on the cheap and building more debt into Burnley?

Yes! Based on the fact that they are limited in the transfer market and were just above relegation last season.

For Pace, the purchase of Espanyol was an absolute priority, and the blue and white club will become the parent team of the group, with which it hopes to operate by investing in signings starting in the second year and when the income level is more consolidated. For now, Espanyol will be able to be...

But why shouldnt you get more points. You've bought and paid probably £400-500 for a season ticket and go to probably most games in contrast to the person thats bought your ticket who is probably going on a couple or so games a season. People living a way from Lancashire travel to away matches and ...

The info which I posted was still on the Faq but obviously is out of date. The reason why they have knocked off the 10 points for non-season ticket holders is that points are worthless if someone is not a ST holder. why would 19 away matches and a few homes matches be worthless? The point is surely...

Just checked and now only 2060. Just o wr the ropes, although that should improve as I attend the matches, this season.

Far better than the scotishness Blackpool fortnight though

Depends on the attendees viewpoint, rather than yoyeurs, I suppose.

There are many English weeks in Blackpool, rather than 2.

Depends how many away games you go to each season? if you go to none then eventually you will just have the 350 × 5.

Plus 5 x 95

I guess you could buy a ticket for every single game and not attend any of them and get the maximum number of loyalty points.

What a wheeze! Just so you can have lots of loyalty for no loyalty at all!

The change in rhythm was the best for me. The Chant was ci tenuous and that was special, however, the rhythm changed at times and upset we remained as one. I count this as probably my greatest Burnley fan moment. We tried it again at Spurs, in a cup match. Not the same feeling, although still pretty...

The traditional “Summer Season” of British sports featuring events such as Royal Ascot, Henley Royal Regatta and Cowes Week are as much about fashion and style as they are about sport. The places that the aristocracy and well to do want to be seen enjoying such occasions. As you say, a display of B...

I don’t like the ‘quintessential British-ness’ of Wimbledon.

The competitors are phenomenal but the ‘celebrities’ turning up for a photo opportunity as if they actually give a **** about the tennis is vomit inducing.

It's quintessentially English.

So on top of the 350 we get for season ticket purchase we now also get upto 95 additional points for attending the game?

Seems bizarre! Extra after the allotted points already credited!

Good that away points get better recognition.

I had both on a double screen. Cole Palmer was the stand out player of my screens. Good to see PSG stopped. They looked a shadow of themselves, after all those trophies.

English women beat a not very good Wales team.
Women not very good. Goalkeepers hopeless.
