They are one of the tradtional powerhouse nations in the Womens game and are always one of the favourites

But in their best efforts to replicate the men they're busy squabbling with one another at the moment, the coach isnt popular and the players don't particularly like one another

I'm pretty sure that when Wales were due to play them they were expected to win 10 nil!!! But Wales only lost 2 nil or drew....can't remember.
Anyway they've got a striker who's strike rate is supposedly clean off!!!
Looking forward.
Italian women are as fiery as peppers that Jonny Cash sang about in his hit song "Jackson" with his 2nd wife June Carter

Careful what you say Bryn, every comment on our site is being looked at from afar and scrutinised for possible homophobic content, screenshots are being taken apparently, and your social media accounts (Facebook/Twitter) will be delved into...
I'm not even joking mate

Be careful Bryn, posts are being deleted (at the speed of light) for suggesting such things, I'll give my post 90 seconds before it gets taken down :lol:

More than four million for the opening game. Haven’t seen any numbers for other games so far.

The England men usually get 10+ million audiences when they play at a major tournament

Not sure anyone has ever claimed that women’s football is as popular as men’s, Skip.

That’s because people love to watch a car crash.
