Definitely. From next Monday onwards I have two weeks vacation and I’m starved for football.
What? That's like saying I'll obviously watch the Premier League because I watched the World Snooker Championship.Considering that I watched the women's Ashes, yea probably watch it if the time is convenient.
Ye kick off times are a big issue - thankfully first England game is SaturdayI'll keep an eye on it. Travelling at the moment and the timings are a bit shit. Should be fairly open with a US v Germany/England final my call.
I've got Germany knocking England out in the QF. But if England sneak that they might make a final. Agreed it's a big shock if they win it.Ye kick off times are a big issue - thankfully first England game is Saturday
I have low expectations for Lionesses - big players retired and injured since the Euros win so will be a miracle to repeat that
Yeah I'm afraid England will go out (relatively) early.Ye kick off times are a big issue - thankfully first England game is Saturday

This was sorted out so all matches are free to air in UKIs it on UK TV and other European countries?
Last I heard there was a broadcasting rights issue with many not paying what FIFA wanted or something

UK, Germany and I believe one or two more have settled the dispute I believe.Is it on UK TV and other European countries?

Attacking wise is decent, but the defensive part is completely shit.Just because women can’t match men physically doesn’t mean they can’t be awesome.
I will watch if I have time. Lots of skilled players, women’s football has come a long way. If you doubt women can match men’s skills watch this video: she obliterates Stephen Curry’s record.

Isn't the problem that women's teams often have to play on men's football pitches as they don't have access to their own resources?Nah i tried watching a few league games but i don't like it pretty obvious political correctness gets in the way of entertainment, realistically need to cut the scale of the pitch by at least 25%. I can see why they don't for the purposes of grassroots football but these big tournaments are not grassroots football.
Not even to support your Irish ladies at their first ever World Cup?No probably not. I find it hard to watch as much football as I used to anyway. Was proper obsessed until LVG killed it for me and I’ve never recovered that same level of interest. When I try to watch women’s football i come away thinking it’s just not entertaining me
Nice - who does she play for?Absolutely , watching with my Daughter who plays at a pro level Certainly doesn't get it from me that's for sure!
Given that a lot of stadiums are multi-use between sports you'd think just moving some goalposts and drawing some new lines to be a minor shuffle. Sure it'll be akin to watching football in an Olympic stadium, but that's a minor disadvantage.Isn't the problem that women's teams often have to play on men's football pitches as they don't have access to their own resources?
Wasn't it Ireland - Colombia that was cancelled? Didn't see that mentioned for the Netherlands. Here's a news report on that match:Not one second. Our dutch gals quit a training match the other day for it being too aggressive. Can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen. But the news will be full of it so I guess I will see some "highlights".
