I don't care for sport and I'm not English but yes I am - and cheered that goal so loudly the old dogs woke up!

Go ⚽!!!!!

Our goalie deserves a medal.

rafichagran Sun 31-Jul-22 18:28:43

Yes, good goal.

Bridie22 Sun 31-Jul-22 18:31:46

Go girls !!!

What's the betting that one of the commentators, assuming the Lionesses win, will come up with a variation on "They think it's all over - it is now"?⚽

merlotgran Sun 31-Jul-22 18:36:57

Nooooooo!!

Well I suppose my heart is getting a good work out ??

Patsy70 Sun 31-Jul-22 19:05:46

Not doing my blood pressure any good, though! ?

Our son and two of his daughters are watching at Wembley.
He bought the tickets at the start of the competition when they were only £35.
Am a bit anxious about the extra time, and perhaps penalties, as they left here at 1 pm and it is a long day for the 9 year old.
The drove, we live just North of London, and he booked a parking space on a private drive in the road near the stadium.

England are not at their best I’m afraid. I’ll eat my words very happily.

Grammaretto Sun 31-Jul-22 19:17:02

Tired legs hmm

merlotgran Sun 31-Jul-22 19:20:18

If it goes to penalties I’m retreating to the garden!

Ailidh Sun 31-Jul-22 19:21:17

Oh, my word!

Jaxjacky Sun 31-Jul-22 19:21:20

Words are a bit crunchy!!!

merlotgran Sun 31-Jul-22 19:22:17

joannapiano Sun 31-Jul-22 19:22:21

England have scored! Perhaps our grand daughters won’t be home so late, after all !

Iam64 Sun 31-Jul-22 19:24:02
