Elmo Posted June 7 It’s been a great build up profile wise and no doubt ladies football is massively on the up. I think this is the breakthrough event. I don’t mind watching it but you have to hold your breath anytime someone has any type of shot as the keepers are erratic at best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some good outfield players but the keepers need some coaching. Fair play to the sport as its definitely on the up and you never know, Scotland might actually be an OK team!

Sarah O Posted June 7 Looking forward to watching the opening match tonight. Beers in the fridge for Scotland on Sunday as well. Much prefer our national women than the men! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Treasurer Posted June 7 I take very little interest in our national team these days (male or female), but I always want us to win. Add in the fact we are playing Ingerlund, I wish our squad all the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taffin Posted June 7 Got round to watching the documentary mentioned on here a few pages back. Really good watch. You can tell how much it means to them to play for their country and how proud and excited they are to have qualified for the world cup. The men's team should be made to watch it on repeat until they display similar characteristics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
letsalldothebeattie Posted June 7 Never been one for watching much of the women’s game but given it’s a World Cup & we are actually bloody in it I’ll watch it. An Auld Enemy clash to start for Scotland bring it on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joondalupjambo Posted June 7 Hats off to the commentator who managed to mention England's men winning the WC in 1966 within 15 seconds of the game starting.

jambomjm74 Posted June 7 Goal keeper for Korea is mince... Heading the ball, doesn’t appear to be something anyone is willing to do. atmosphere is very family friendly and quite different. For a World Cup and all the coverage, it’s not got enough to keep me interested. Sorry but 15 mins is enough for me. It’s a very very different game from the man’s game ... all this equal investment stuff from politicians and press doesn’t match to the product on show.
