Re: England 20 Latvia 0
Difficult to know what this kind of thing does for the women's game - on the one hand, it discredits it. But on the other - it's attention grabbing - and that's what seems to matter most these days.

Re: England 20 Latvia 0
I suspect it was because there were too few Motherwell players in the team.Sid Bishop wrote: ↑Tue Nov 30, 2021 10:28 pm Ridiculous mismatch, another one tonight was Spain Women 8 Scotland Women 0
The gents team had the same issue for over 20 years. As soon as they included a few Well players we improved 120% and qualified for ritual humiliation at major tourneys. The one exception being when we smashed Englandshiresville 0-0 at Fortress Wembley.

Re: England 20 Latvia 0
Struggle to see how this gives the Womens game any credibility at all.
England's record is played 6 scored 53 conceded 0.
As sport it surely needs to have some level of competitiveness to it.

Fantastic result, 20-0. Surely, with a score like that, they are now a match for the men's game?

It is all about ££££££. Chelski Man City etc are funding their clubs far in excess of their income. They have superior facilities for their players etc

Re: England 20 Latvia 0
Latvia had no shots on goal during the game. I wonder how many times they even managed to get the ball into our half. East night for our keeper!
