I know where I'll be!! 😭

They looked more comfortable on the ball and they created way more chances. If they could only finish we would have lost comfortably. Anyway that's my view.

On the actual game, apart from the penalties I thought we didn't turn up. It was so one-sided but Spain were woeful in the final third where it matters. Missed at least 6 good chances while we didn't create much at all. Looks as if we did more work on penalties than other team and just as well! All the drama came from the penalty shoot-out, the match itself was not a good advert for women's football. TBF, that's true of men's finals too on occasion.

We haven't finished losing players yet.

NO

You clearly have a short lifetime!

Shame Root couldn't take that catch in the slips to give Archer 2 wickets in 2 balls just on lunch. Magnificent attempt though, very fast, very high.

and I agree with him! Not the videos around to show what Duggie could do. You had to see it to believe it.

Its one less relegation place to worry about.

I'm not arguing that any member of the FF isn't worthy. They cannot be seen to be representative of the fans unless they've been elected by them. If an election resulted in exactly the same members being returned I wouldn't have any issue with it.

I reckon most of us hope you're right but think you're wrong!

Well if they have to meet regularly with a representative group of Supporters, the Fans Forum doesn't cut it because it isn't elected.

No-one has ever "perfected that shot"! Its too risky for a 5-day game unless you're miles ahead which we are.

You've said this before but the MB is open for all to comment on any post. I've made a single mild comment essentially hoping you won't continue to drag it down as you have been.

It really isn't necessary to keep on making your point over and over again. You're dominating this thread but not illuminating it.

Prepare for the customary post-Christmas slump.

But we're not playing In France's League 1.

Unfair comparison. Came from a Rovers supporting family with his brother already playing for us. Dolan had no such background.

Who cares?

Shock Horror! None of us would do that would we?

We've rode our luck the whole tournament! Can we eke out one more win? A Guardian article today, very critical of the team and of the Coach's selections. Reckons too attached too long to those who played in 2022. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/jul/23/lionesses-england-women-italy-euro-2025-final-football-michelle-agyemang

Spot on.

Absolutely, the ref, for once had an unbroken view from a few metres away. She couldn't not give it.

If there are 10 penalties there, then give 'em! Why pick and choose? If someone drags you down in the penalty its a pen full stop. Only way to end these offences.

Absolutely, she was dragged down to the floor by a defender in the penalty box. What else could it be? The issue is that these offences too often aren't punished.
