I think the Lionesses would beat our last seasons team.

Well I said I wasn’t going to watch it, and I didn’t, I was down the pub.
But the calling of the Harvey’s Best Bitter was the only call I answered.A sympathetic response m’lord. I spent a weekend in Sussex recently and visited 3 pubs for a pint of bitter. One didn’t have any on draught and the other two only Harveys, who seem to have a monopoly round there. The head barely lasted back to the table! Can’t you petition for some John Smiths or Boddingtons and give yourself and others a treat?
The thing is that Harvey’s gets better the closer you get to it’s brewery in Lewes. Also it has to be looked after properly.
If you were to visit Brighton itself, you would find many different real ales. The Stag in Kemptown is a nice free house that has regular guest beers. Landlords is worth a try.
The other thing worth mentioning is that the nozzles on real ale pumps are generally much looser down here, so you never get a frothy head on the beer.

The same as men’s tennis versus womens, completely different due to physical abilities but there are some cracking men’s and ladies tennis matches as this year’s Wimbledon proved.

Women’s football is very poor on the whole. Nothing against it at all, they deserve to play football professionally as much as anybody else but still the standard is shocking and nothing I’d ever personally bother watching.

Norway played that bad, I think our side from last season would have battered them !. I don’t need to point out how shite we were last season. That’s how bad the opposition was.

Each to their own though !
[/quote You have to be joking Wonder goals, their passing is very good, their defending is just fine, they give 100%, their work rate is far better then the mens team,, and you do not get that bloody diving and rolling about like the stupid men do, and there is a shortish of that stupid, boring time wasting back and sideways bloody passing that the men seem to have perfected. Their finishing in front of goal is not always hop class, but you cannot compare their finishing to Scunny’s simply because Scunny do not get in front of the other teams goal that often, so we do not really know what Scunny’s finishing would be like!! All in all there was more entertainment watching ten minutes of the ladies then if you sit watching a full Scunny game, but after saying that, “when was the last time I stuck it out for 90 mins ?”.

I agree, and the proximity to the Ouse helps, just be careful the Environment Agency don’t catch you pouring it in there.
That is sacrilege!!
If you find women’s football that entertaining I suggest you stick to that and don’t bother with Men’s football anymore seen as you went out of your way to highlight the plus points.
Why can’t you enjoy both? Personally I just love football regardless of who is playing I will watch it. When my son played junior football (a few years ago now admittedly) the standard wasn#t great but the games were good to watch none the less.
One thing a prefer about Womens football is that they get straight up after a tackle instead of rolling around holding their ankle and then getting up and sprinting off 2 minutes later like the so called men do!

After all of these decades that we have been spoiled with quality mens football, it is difficult to take an interest in the woman’s game. Except for the fact that the players are much better looking.

Just seen a piece on Talk Tv and some BBC bint jouralist slating the England womens team after their magnificent 8 nil win to reach the quarter finals .. apparently the team is TOO WHITE and lacking diversity as all player fielded and on the subs bench were white.. this is a BBC employee the national TV provider and IMO her statement is ridiculous … what next the Nigerian WC side side is too black… YCMTSU
