Fantastic performance the mens team could learn a thing or two-it’s coming home.
The bloody tripe is headline news across the media.
Ergo it must be good and all fall in line.
Suckers.

Not a fan of the women's game then I take it RP.......
Neither am I particularly to be honest normally - I wish BCFC and England women well but rarely check up on their results - but I thought the England achievement to-date has been pretty impressive (in their own category standard of course) and IMHO it's a far more 'valid and ethical' competition than the upcoming men's tournament in Qatar, bought by bribes and the blood of slaves ............
Out of interest I checked out a couple of my regular news sources (Mail, BBC and Sky) and it was only headlining in the Mail. Maybe we don't read the same sources.
One of your sources is ‘The Mail’ - oh dear ….Not a fan of the women's game then I take it RP.......

I still agree broadly with your post btw
Forgive me for asking this question but are there any players of colour in the squad because it looked obvious to me and I would be surprised if that fact wasn't criticized. I will confess I watched the game and congrats on their win but the women's game doesn't really float my boat.
Same with the bloody Commonwealth Games.
BBC Breakfast TV is all over it today getting rammed down our throats - who cares about a 2nd rate competition ? Seems its nothing to do with sport, every 2nd word the BBC used during the outside broadcast was diversity.
The World Championship, the real thing, has just finished with hardly a mention.
'Bainwashing' drives me nuts.

Agree
Diversity and inclusion - the world is full of this virtue signalling nonsense, and all the major companies are consumed by their own self loathing and aim their hand wringing at the vast majority of their employees.
So being a white, hetrosexual male, who is working, I have no absolutely no voice (at work or in wider society lets be honest) and am constantly told about my white privilege by my employer, whilst being forced to watch company training videos about people who are gay, who identify differently, people of colour, what it's like to be follower of Islam and the like.
I think that being told I have white privilege is one of the most racist things you could say to me.
I also use Deutsche Welle, El Pais and The Gibraltar Chronicle - but I didn’t think that many posters on here would read those often, so I didn’t quote them.
Backing away from the hype frenzy for a moment…..
I think that most ‘sane’ people would agree that any prejudice, be it for race, sexual orientation, appearance, gender etc is BAD.
The main cause of conflict and fury is about HOW we should remove it from our society.
I sometimes get the feeling that ‘diversity’ movements like Stonewall and BLM etc aren’t interested in equality - they want REVENGE - which is something completely different.
It’s in everyone’s interest that we remove prejudices - but artificially promoting one ‘group’ over another is practicing the very thing that they claim to be trying to eradicate - prejudice - and you won’t speed up diversity this way - you will slow it down.

TOTALLY AGREE when you go to foreign country you have to blend in with their idealism .. here they come to enforce their culture on society ....... white privilege our generations have worked for what we have ...
Agreed
At a British airport, port, cruise terminal etc you have to pass security, show your passport, and probably also have to prove you have been vaccinated against Covid in order to travel.
But if you come here by dinghy, illegally, having thrown away any documents that might have told Border Force who you actually are, and are (very probably) unvaccinated, you are free to do whatever you like.
And as a bonus, you'll get given money every week, have 3 square meals a day provided, will be staying in a 3 or 4 star hotel, and you will be given a new phone.

I actually intended to post this on the Wokism thread - but it kinda works on here too.
I can honestly say that I’ve read a few articles and listened to some news from the usual suspects and I have not once heard anything moaning about diversity with regards to the Lionesses team.
I’m not saying there haven’t been complaints - but if you randomly check out the main news about the comp on the mainstream news sites you will just find congratulatory articles and excitement about the final vs Germany.
I admit I haven’t trawled through trying to find criticism and no doubt if I had spent some time trying to find it I probably would.

I'm not following it, but it sounds encouraging at least.
Are the England women taking the knee before matches like their sheep related male counterparts, or have they got more dignity ?
I haven’t watched any of their matches from the start so can’t say.
I’m probably going to miss the final too as I’ll be driving back from Newark
