    Is it time for the England players to do the same as the Welsh national team?

    Yeah, why not?

    Seems a nice bit of posturing albeit slightly more of a hit in the pocket than kneeling down or wearing an armband

    Read down the article it says that England already do it.

    I believe in paying people their worth. If the men's game is far more prosperous in sponsorship, attendances etc, than women, it is reasonable to be paid more. Pay the same if equal, and women should be paid more than men if they ever become more popular through metrics mentioned. Not about gender, all economics.

    England men’s players match fees all get given to charity. Not sure if the women’s fees do.

    I had read where some mens fees were donated to charity but that was years ago. As for not bringing in the same crowds as men, what was the crowd at Wembley for the women's Euro final?

    Patience glasshopper all will revealed in good time. I have of late sat back and just let it all happen. Could have posted Hjelde had signed within an hour of him doing so but chose not to so there

    The ticket prices for the Women’s Euros were considerably cheaper than for the Men’s though.
