Starts tomorrow 20 July.
All over the BBC sports page.
Not really interested myself but what about anybody else. Will you be watching or giving it miss?

I'll watch as much as I can but most games are played while I'm at work.

As previously said the time difference is awkward but will try to keep up with Lionesses at least. Went to a game at Rotherham in previous Women's Euros (not England), enjoyable evening.

Down here(Australia), the media coverage has been decent in the sports rags, albeit mostly about the Matilda’s (the nickname for the Australian team).
As far as advertising it being on, it’s been very disappointing with little to no advertising or events to really spark the interest. I fear that the crowds will be disappointing through no fault of the game other than a serious lack of promotion.
It’s also not a great time of the year to be hosting the event as we are in our coldest period and Australia(apart from maybe Melbourne) doesn’t do the cold weather well.

That was a cracking goal by NZ, worth a watch.

Will be trying to find live streams while at work, especially for our girls, but for any others I can see too.
How long before some wanker tries derailing this thread though.

Bloody work getting in the way of football, it's not good Should be a charitable foundation to help out folks who have to work when football is on. They could pay for a non football fan to sit in for you for a couple of hours???🤔 Man cannot live on highlights alone.. Imagine today having to try and avoid the score in a big game😔 |

I'll be watching a few. The standard of the women's game has come on leaps and bounds. And they're less whiny than the fellas.

Could you not change this to "Women's World Cup"? The plural of woman, is not woman's. I don't care, but it's hurting my brain.

NZ vs Norway - entering time added on with Norway trailing and one of their players goes down with cramp. Two of her team mates carry her off the pitch quickly so she can receive treatment whilst they continue trying to get the equaliser. What a refreshing change! |

Seen a lot of cautious optimism about England, we've clearly got a good team, but also heading into a World Cup missing our captain, one of our best players, and two key players who've retired since we won the Euros. Anything we manage will definitely be against the odds

Anything we manage will definitely be against the odds And in the Euros we didn't have the USA to contend with. The best and most professional players by some distance. Although some nations are catching up, a couple of the Scandi nations have good teams and the Aussies aren't too shabby. I'd have England as maybe 3rd favourites with USA favourites and Aussies 2nd. IMO obviously and I'm by no means an expert. |

Is Sam Kerr missing the reason for the (so far) 0-0 or a tactical masterclass from Ireland's manager?

I do admit to only having a passing interest in womens football, but I have a passing interest in many sports played by either or both sexes. If I watch I understand there will be differences in the game, if you expect too much probably best to leave it alone? |

I like Women’s Football and will grab a game when I can but will probably settle for perhaps a bit of highlights if it’s gonna be on council telly (BBC)...
It’ll hopefully be a good competitive tournament and will probably be played in more fair and less cheating than the guys game -
Good Luck to Ireland and England just wish Scotland was there but as usual aren’t ☹️
Any the bonus is that if it’s a hopeless match there’s lots of beautiful talent to admire from The Footy Boots upwards ! 😊 😊 😊 😊

FFS ya wet wipe I know, over exaggerating, but it'll be the first of many I guarantee it. Just check out the Town Women's Team thread for evidence. Although I didn't exactly mean spoiling the thread, more "spoiling" our enjoyment. It's incredibly frustrating having to scroll through posts slagging off something by people who "have no interest" in that something. Spoiling/derailing threads with puns is another matter  |
