If you tune in at 9.00 pm you'll miss the first half.

 

[Chunkylad]

I'm out but will be recording it for when I get back home.

Really enjoyed this tournament last time around.

Bummer, that will be 9pm Swiss time

 

[Lala]

Same here, then I'll delete it without watching it.

Good for you, seems like a very pointless exercise, but fill ya boots.

 

[S88bfc]

Games so far have been pretty poor, Obviously Spain and Germany the best so far, hopefully England can turn it on against France and not sit back,make a statement

 

[parker14]

Think I'm washing my hair.

 

[GrahamwantshisOates]

The media are really trying to push this!
Making it seem like all the pubs will be packed and off licenses run out of beer!
Even mentioned it on Corrie! Rovers Return will be rocking.
Attendances haven’t been fantastic in smaller stadiums.
I will watch second half

I will record it, start watching it, and then be woken up by Mrs g thumping on the floor boards at about 3.00 am.
Will delete it in the morning without watching the rest of it because I will have accidentally found out the score by then
(In all probability).

 

[SeasideMac]

Looks like its just me and Lala tuning in from the start then

 

[Sven]

Competitive sport, what’s not to like.

 

[Old_Laytonian]

Just realised it's Jeff Lynne/ELO on BBC2 all night....

 

[Gordon62]

I hope I’m wrong, but France 2-1. Sorry

 

[Long-shanks]

I'm going with The Walking Dead: Dead City 2nd series this evening. No comparison intended I promise.

 

[Lala]

Gonna switch that, 2-1 England

No comment But glad you’ve tuned in Porky
Come on England

Social engineering at its finest. Trying to drum up fake enthusiasm for a tournament no one gives a flying f about. Same as the WSL.

Just turned over and said the same to my wife. They still talk the same load of bollocks as the men so no surprise.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Are England women still decent these days?

 

[BFC87]

I am watching a horror film. It’s about men washing and ironing putting duvet covers on, cooking and smashing cars up. They take over the world . They end up playing football and lose in the final of the World Cup due to seven of them being women.

We’ll find out !

The men are quite capable of losing on their own.

Get in ️️️️

 

[Blackpool Are Back!]

Offside
VAR

Never mind, on we go …

 

[SeasideTerrier]

thoroughly modern man there.

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Looks like its just me and Lala tuning in from the start then

Nope, me as well

 

[BigHandsOliverKahn]

How was that offside? VAR makes football so unenjoyable to watch.

 

[SeasideTerrier]

Has Farage been appointed a Mod on this thread? How long will it take after England score for a ", she should have taken her shirt off.." post from the enlightened ELO watching tools?

 

[SeasideTerrier]

Nope, me as well

I'm Spartacus... too :)

 

[Steve Birch]

Looks like its just me and Lala tuning in from the start then

I’m watching !

 

[SeasideKurt]

That Jess Carter is absolutely shite. I don’t get how there isn’t a better left back in England than her.

 

[Memphisboy]

My enthusiasm is not fake.

You’ve failed to understand my argument. I don’t dispute that you enjoy it and that’s fine but some people enjoy watching Sumo Wrestling and they don’t put that on prime time Saturday night TV. Put it on its own pay TV channels and then we’ll see how much enthusiasm there is for women’s football

It’s quite simple really,if you don’t like it,don’t watch it,and leave those of us that do want to watch alone.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

England are shit. No better than Wales who I watched earlier.

 

[1953+1]

Frances wingers are ripping our full backs to pieces at the moment.

 

[TangerineBayern]

It was coming

 

[SeasideKurt]

Definitely been second best this half, would get some youthful runners on because they're looking an old side. There we are, it was coming.

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

They’ve been dangerous down that side all game,we just haven’t covered well enough

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Well deserved. This is going to be about 10-0.

 

[Insider]

I'm afraid Jess Carter is the weakest link.

 

[1953+1]

We definitely aren't as good as we think we are.

 

[BigHandsOliverKahn]

That ridiculous VAR decision has completely changed this game. Gave France a right boost.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

France have 22 players on the pitch.

 

[1953+1]

Christmas we are absolutely crap

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

I hope Sarina has a plan b

 

[SeasideKurt]

Getting absolutely battered.
