If you think it’s not worth watching because it’s only women then don’t bother going to watch your grandson play because it’s only kids.

Good post Boingy! Girls will have tennis girl idols and will now have football girl idols - not men! After the success of this woman's tournament proven by record attendances - schools will now have to schedule girls football into PE.

Too many moans by those living in Noah's Arc days but no father/grandfather ( as you mention ) would not be supportive of a daughter/grand daughter if they were in a girls match. They would be cheering them on!

Credit where it's due! Can you imagine Grant or Phillips scoring that 1st England goal - even if given 5 chances?
