    Slow death for a Sunday evening. Hope the Horns show the same grit.

    Lucy Bronze played with a fractured leg apparently.

    Tough girl !

    Just shows how much desire and commitment they have .

    I've broken my heel and had a broken rib.

    Must've hurt to hell.

    But, to play on with that shows balls. ;)

    Excellent game, Spain were technically much better than us but we toughed it out, well played ladies.
    As for Lucy Bronze, I was amazed when she insisted on coming back on after she hobbled off with her injury, more than just balls I would say.

    On classic FM today they were asking for suggestions for the ladies instead of Lionesses, I was thinking about The Pussies <whistle>

    I am curious to know why our first penalty had to be retaken, looked ok to me.

    Apparently the rules changed as before she wouldn’t be allowed to re take it .

    Fortunately didn’t matter.

    TBF the penalties did seem better and the keepers had to work hard to save them .

    Of course we scored more again .

    Yes Spain as you might expect looked better but we dug in and actually came back into the game well .

    Yes much better penalties and great Hampton saves


    "Hampton revealed what the now legendary manager said at that crunch moment, which ultimately proved successful.

    ‘This is England!’ Hampton revealed Wiegman said. ‘This is our moment.' "

    Everyone seems to be predicting Luton to be top 2 etc.

    Hopefully that prediction will go as well as it did last season !

    The report only mentions Dundee United as guilty of what is essentially tax fraud, but there are 32 clubs across the UK that have been doing the same.
    Hopefully Gino wasn't tempted.

    Shows clubs will do anything to bend the rules and probably get away with it.
