Is anyone watching/ listening to the arsenal game? I’ve only caught the second half because of the (frustrating) netball.

DuncinToffee · 19/11/2025 22:06

I only check the results, good one for Arsenal, not so much for Man U.

We won a game! Long may it continue.

Snowypeaks · 27/11/2025 19:21

U23s are playing. Vs Norway. These girls are enormous! Like netball players, not footballers.

They are up against USA on Monday or Tuesday.
All on England YouTube.

thanks for the heads up, just put this on before I go out to my netball game (where my 5’6” self will be the shortest on court!)

What position do you play? Centre? Wing attack?

DuncinToffee · 27/11/2025 20:33

Everton's Ruby Mace is captain tonight

Just watching the last 10 minutes as I didn't realise it was on. Are there any Arsenal players?

I don't think so.

It's a friendly, not well promoted.

WA or WD for me. I leave centre to the young guns these days (who am I kidding, I always avoided the centre bib like the plague!)

I played GK - least energetic position on the court!

Mace was sensational.

MustTryHarderAndHarder · 01/12/2025 19:02

Watching the U23 vs USA

MustTryHarderAndHarder · 01/12/2025 19:03

Oops!

MustTryHarderAndHarder · 01/12/2025 19:44

Oops! But what a goal.

Snowypeaks · 01/12/2025 19:45

Oops indeed!.
They just seem to have more intent, if you see what I mean.

You spoke too soon!

We're getting back in to it.

Snowypeaks · 01/12/2025 20:24

Back and forth!

Snowypeaks · 01/12/2025 20:25

I've only had half an eye on it since the second half started, doing something else. Just looking up for the goals.

The US are really good. Confusing that we are playing in navy. I keep cheering the wrong team!

I'm pleased you said that as I felt really stupid!

That Chloe Swarie looks really good. She's only 16. Shame she plays for Chelsea. She looks too nice to play for them!

Snowypeaks · 01/12/2025 21:02

Chelsea have a lot of good young players. I'm quite envious.
Not just English players, either.

Snowypeaks · 06/12/2025 14:10

Woo-hoo! A win at last. My girl Stina does the business again. Phew. 12 noon kickoffs are stupid but at least if we win, I can enjoy the rest of the weekend's matches. Or I would if it wasn't for simultaneous kickoff times.

Which leads me to a rant...
I hate Sky and I hate the idiots at WPLL or whatever they are called these days for agreeing to put the vast majority the WSL behind a pay wall and awarding the contract to Sky at all. Women's football should be on a terrestrial channel - BBC, Channel 4 or Channel 5, ITV. Sky have shown that they just don't understand their (potential) audience or they got research results that they didn't like and decided to do what they were going to do anyway and bend the viewers to their will. We've got 4.5 more years of this nonsense and the women's game will be lucky to survive. £65 million isn't worth it. The game needs more eyes on it - that should be the priority at the moment, not the money. The money will follow the size and commitment of the audience.

Rant over. I thank you.
