All sports history will be re written from BLS (before last Sunday) and ALS (after last Sunday)......best women's football team in Europe, fantastic, great, well done but it's a bit 🙄 when compared to sports women are actually very good or become champions of a sport that there is no or very little physical element.Quote:

In fact a wifey winning countdown would probably get more of my attention.
You can see where it's all going though more and more and more money being given to women's football from the pot......and demands for massive salary hikes for players won't be far away.
Already heard someone on the local news down here asking for equal pay for women in football.Quote:

Wait till the new years honors list comes oot!!!
I do not understand why the media is making such a ‘song and dance’ about the Women’s Open Golf Championship being held at Muirfield.Quote:

A bit like the US Masters which is played at Augusta every year.
Does Augusta not have members like any other course? PS Congatulations on your win in the Dee Promotions Lottery. What are you going to do with the 'vast' sum coming your way.😀Quote:
