Why no bus parade through London?

I bet the men would have had one. ?

Heard on the radio there were 17 million viewers. Takes some beating these days. Wonderful achievement in every way.

Sad that there will be no Downing Street reception for our Lionesses, does awful Boris not like football?

Ohh I don’t think Gary Linekers’ comment was offensive.

Yes he could have just said “well done lionesses” or words to that effect, maybe he did anyway elsewhere (I don’t do Twitter so wouldn’t know)
It was a fantabulous achievement for women and football and great entertainment.
Let’s please not get too precious though.
Plus I’m sure Nike were lovin it
( perverse I know) and not very eco minded of me, but I wanted to put that bra to soak in a whitener… ?

Men It’s coming home, it’s coming home, footballs coming home

Women 60 years later FFS, we’ll go and get it ourselves ?

Not a suitable sport for females said the FA in 1921 ?

We'll be wanting to eat Yorkie bars next.
