Administrator Stan Posted April 14, 2021 Administrator Posted April 14, 2021 The 2nd goal . It's something you'd expect @Whiskey to do, not a professional... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/56740403 Quote

It's something you'd expect @Whiskey to do, not a professional... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/56740403 I watched that and thought that you must have made a mistake, as surely the 2nd goal couldn't have been as bad as the first. Jesus fucking, absolute wept. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted April 28, 2021 Administrator Posted April 28, 2021 Funding increase for the Women's game across the sport in Europe https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/56905827 Quote Women's football is to receive a four-fold increase in financial support from Uefa's revamped Champions League. The new model, set to be introduced for the 2021-22 season, will ensure 24m euros (£20.8m) is redistributed to benefit the sport across Europe. Clubs not playing in the Champions League will receive 23% of that figure. A further change will see Video Assistant Referee technology - previously only available in the final - used from the quarter-finals onwards. Clubs will also be permitted to make changes to their squad to cover for maternity leave. Referring to the financial changes, which he described as a 'giant step forward', Uefa President Aleksander Ceferin said: "[it] will strengthen the women's game across Europe. "The development of women's football should not be driven by short-term gain but a long-term vision. Thanks to the solidarity payments at the heart of this project and the increased rewards, every last Euro generated by the Women's Champions League and even more will go back into the women's game." Teams who reach the group stage will earn 400,000 Euros (£347,000) and the winner could receive as much as 1.4m Euros (£1.2m) depending on their results during the tournament. The new model will include the first ever cross-subsidy from Uefa's men's club competitions to support the women's game; an aspect Ceferin believes represents "a clear signal that the women's game is a strategic priority". The European Club Association's head of women's football, Claire Bloomfield, said: "This is an extraordinary moment in the history of women's club competitions and testament to what a collaborative approach between ECA and Uefa can accomplish. "The cross-subsidy from men's European club competitions, vastly improved prize money, plus progressive approach to the competition's new media and sponsorship rights, will significantly change the financial reality for women's clubs throughout Europe. "The payments to non-participating clubs are also a crucial first step towards achieving further professionalisation and a balanced and competitive future for the game." Quote
6666 Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 What looked like it was going to be a great end to the season for Chelsea as a club doesn't seem to be going that well. The women's team won the league but now the men's team have lost the FA Cup final and the women's team were slapped aside in the WCL final. If the men's team now lose in the CL final and miss out on top 4, then that has to be a big disappointment for Chelsea. Quote

Guest Posted September 17, 2021 Posted September 17, 2021 England will host a four team tournament starting next February. It will feature, Germany Spain and another team to be announced in a round Robin tournament. Unlike mens football these mini tournaments mean alot in womens football. England women are playing tonight will probably watch. Could be a heavy victory Quote
Guest Posted September 17, 2021 Posted September 17, 2021 England almost scored in 30 seconds. Should get double figures here Quote
Guest Posted September 17, 2021 Posted September 17, 2021 11 attempts in under 20 minutes for England Quote
Guest Posted September 17, 2021 Posted September 17, 2021 England beat north Macedonia 8.0. To be honest 20.0 wouldn't have flattered England. @Eco I think your girls would have put 12,13 goals past them so still a lot of work for England Quote
Moderator Tommy Posted September 21, 2021 Moderator Posted September 21, 2021 Germany's women won 5-1 in a World Cup Qualifier against Serbia. 23-year-old Lea Schüller scored four goals. Quote
Guest Posted September 22, 2021 Posted September 22, 2021 @Tommy surprised they didn't win by more to be honest. Some people have questioned the womens football qualifying format and whether it needs change. The issue is over the last few qualifiers 3 teams have won 10.0. There have also been an 8.0 an 8.1 and a 7.1. Thats only the ones I remember. The problem is not all countries invest in womens football and the difference in quality is massive. When England played North Macedonia the other day 8.0 flattered north Macedonia. England could have had 20 and it wouldn't have been flattering to them. They had 42 attempts on goal. I dont think I've ever seen a game with such a difference on quality. Maybe these teams should have to pre qualify Quote
Guest Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 I watched some of Barcelona v arsenal tonight. Barcelona were excellent. Some of the passing was brilliant by anyone's standards. They play the best football I've seen from a womens team. I would pay good money to see them play. Quote
Guest Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 @Stan @Eco anyone seen Barcelona play? I'm on my own in this conversation. Its like being back in school Quote

Lyon beat Barcelona a couple of years ago in the final. But Barcelona are the best team now. They won their league and only lost one game all season and won the rest. Got 99 points out of 102. The Spanish league is actually very entertaining. Watching real madrid now and it is a very decent game. But no one is as good to watch as Barcelona in my opinion. No one comes close. Quote
Guest Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 @Topliss Turnstiles England have two world cup qualifiers coming up against Latvia and northern Ireland. Latvia lost 4.1 at home today to north Macedonia who england beat 8.0. When England last played northern ireland they won 6.0 so should see a lot of goals over the next couple of games. England have already beat Luxembourg 10.0 and north Macedonia 8.0 as I mentioned. Austria could be tricky but I think England will want to win every game in qualifying Quote

Do you know where and when these games are please? Quote

Latvia is in latvia . Northern ireland game is tomorrow. Latvia on Tuesday. What do you think about some of the heavy scorelines in the qualifiers? I mean Holland best Cyprus 8.0 tonight and France beat Estonia 11.0. Due to lack of funding in some countries you get very heavy scorelines quite often. Do you think some teams should pre qualify or is that making the problem worse? Quote
Guest Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 @Topliss Turnstiles I've heard that the Spanish womens league is available on uefa tv. I think it's free but not sure. Watch Barcelona women they are the best womens football team I have ever seen and great to watch. I would pay good money to see them play. @Stan @Eco you might like it as well Quote
Guest Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) England win 10.0 in Latvia. Their second 10.0 victory in a row. They have scored 32 goals in 4 games and not conceded. I think questions donatart to need to be asked about the format @Topliss Turnstiles Edited October 26, 2021 by Guest Quote
