Says Spanish players going down with little to no contact implying time wasting - seconds later replay shows Spanish girl getting treatment was clearly caught late! Every time they showed a replay of such an incident, the English player stood on the Spanish player's foot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkieRR Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 On the BBC News, they've got Jill Dougall (Scottish) as their reporter in Sydney doing a big PR job for DA MIGHTEE LIONESSES. Were their English pundits too teary to report? Or is it a subliminal message that the Lionesses are the national team of you bleedin Jocks as well, and Taffs.

KirkieRR Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Gracious, the newsreader, who looks about 12, is Scottish as well. He's getting any residual Scottish feeling ground out of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Why the f**k are they continually going on about "first final since 1966"?? It's no as if FIFA have merged the tournament histories or something 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no as if FIFA have merged the tournament histories or something There seems to be a desire to merge the record books of men's and women's football in an (IMO) OTT effort to emphasise that they are equal and the same. If we are to view all England sides as being the same then it wasn't England's first WC final since 1966 - their U20 side won the World Cup in 2017. It's OK to refer to men's & women's football as being different. Edited August 20, 2023 by Todd_is_God 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon EF Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Never been bothered by the Engalnd women's team before but watching and listening to some of the pish up to and including this game, it was very pleasing to see them get pumped. Spain were much better and really should have won by more if they were a bit more ruthless in the box. Made England look like a bunch of farmers.

You can't really have it both ways here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should lose his title. He might be Prince of Wales but he is English so I suppose we should make allowances.

Shows a lack of unity IMO. That's Spain for you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
