Good to see the Tigresses carrying on a proud tradition ⦠Losing in the semiās
Lost 0-3.
Great commitment tonight, but a really poor team display.
Dutch kept possession well and we seemed to be determined to knock it long at every opportunity.
Weāve been direct all tournamentz but we played more build up in our own half previously.
I still enjoyed the match. Something refreshingly honest and engaging about two teams that donāt have perfect technique.
Well done England and congratulations to Holland.
England Ladies footer semi-final without the great Jill Scott (suspended)
Is like sotonians.co without Goatboy or old ottery
So I am told by Goatboy
I echo your thoughts my man
While Iāve admired their progress, letās not pretend that the quality has been anything but awful on occasions.
Bar perhaps two or three players, we have been technically poor, given the ball away a ridiculous number of times, lacked shape, made poor decisions, and reminded me of a Division Three side from 1973 that insists on going long ball at every opportunity.
This side looks to be on the same trajectory as the menās side, getting left behind by superior coaching in other countries.
Well played the England ladies not your night.
Team is definitely on the up
I must admit I didnāt actually watch the match
I had planned to watch it but forgot we were out tonight. Followed the match on my phone. Gutted we didnāt make the final but hey ho, it is England after all.
But, really, were they really good, or are we not allowed to criticise?
Just get the feeling that because the media have started to get a sniff of a potential new money stream that the sport is being bigged up before it is fully formed.
convince me otherwise peeps
Talking of womenās sport, how unlucky was Laura Muir tonight?
She just missed out on a bronze medal and the photo finish showed that it was actually Caster Semenyaās cock that just swung across the line to take third.
Southampton want a proper ladies team not just the juniors

Interesting to see how it develops.
I work with the goalie for Englandās womenās beach football team.
Bit scandalous that we donāt have a womenās world cup thread *
Whereās @Sfcsim when you need him?
* Just in case we do have a womenās world cup thread, I am partially sighted and you can bet your arse Iāll also be using this excuse when @KRG moans about me pilfering one of his thread ideas. Which I often unwittingly have.
You blind twat
