Didn't think Kirby was up to much last match but so far today she's been our best player.

Yipchaa!
Fackin' 'ell, I missed the goal as I looked down to type "White has been so close so many times this tournament!".
But fuck it, leading goalscorer!
Well taken, too

What a fucking goal! Brilliant from Bronze and marvelous from Mead

Heh, Stanway in danger of being one of those players at school who scores one worldie from range and from then on just shoots whenever they get the ball in the opposition half.
Yes, Joe, I'm talking about you

Yeah, this is far from comfortable.
Was thinking, if nothing else, rather hope this doesn't go to ET again. Would make it less likely for us to win tonight, but then also again for the final if we did get through.
I mean, I'd take through in ET than out in 90 minutes, obviously...
Do the England men's side have a collective noun?
I believe the German blokes are called the 'Mannschaft'. Which surely can't be beaten.
Lord Camomile
Yipchaa!
I haven't been sure how I felt about that! It's used so often that it's clearly an identity that's stuck and, seemingly, the players themselves are happy to use.
But... yeah, it's not really that common in football. We're not rugby, for fuck's sake

What isn't?

Refer to teams, and their players, by their mascoty nickname quite so frequently. Whereas in rugby it's quite common to refer to the Springboks or the Wallabies.
Anyway, goooooooooaaaal!
Oh, maybe...

The VAR folk just wanted to twist the knife into Sweden, 'cause it's the hope that kills ya...

Yay! My fave player with a great header!
Lord Camomile
Yipchaa!
Although not having the commo saying "can I see the Wembley arches".
Not a 'tempting fate' thing, just think that 2-0 with 40 minutes to go against a team that is playing well is not a situation with much guaranteed about it.

It was... Rebekah Vardy's account
The Hammers, the Iron, the Terriers, the Cottagers, the Potters, the Toon, Pompey, the Blades, the Gills, Seasoders, the Seagulls, the Eagles etc etc etc.Refer to teams, and their players, by their mascoty nickname quite so frequently.

Oh, no, there's plenty of nicknames flying around, I just feel like they're not used in the same way.
Like, the players are calling themselves and each other as Lionesses. You generally don't get, say, Michail Antonio referring to himself as a Hammer.

I thought this was a thread about Eurovision tickets being £15, and now I'm sad.
