New board for football fans - Women's Euro 2022

[YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet]

Hello everyone.

We’re thrilled to welcome you to a new board to chat about the 2022 UEFA European Women’s Football Championship. The Group Stages kick off on the 6th July with host nation, England, v Austria at Old Trafford. Northern Ireland join the competition for the first time after winning the qualifying play offs in April, facing Norway on the 7th July at Southampton. They'll be hoping to wrestle the trophy from defending champions, the Netherlands. 🏆

Join in if you’re looking forward to a fab summer of women’s sports! ⚽⚽

The full fixtures are here.

Excellent. Thanks for all the dates. So difficult to keep track this Summer with Commonwealth Games and all the wonderful cricket to keep p with then the men's football starting early and so on.

Yay!

Thanks for this. I have tickets for the opening game at Old Trafford and also the final. Come on England!

Thank you!

Woo!

I'm supporting England and have tickets for the Southampton game and the final!

Excellent, thank you! I like to keep up with the women’s games 😀

Excellent! We have tickets to the final at Wembley on 31st July. Fingers crossed England will be in it.

They absolutely should be. It's England's to lose this time ......

I've only every really watched my 10 year old play football, but at his annual football festival last weekend we won tickets for this Saturdays Portugal v Switzerland game in Leigh. I'm honestly so excited to go!

I am going to Brighton tomorrow. Keen to see more games too if I can get tickets etc.

I am intrigued to know why you feel it is Englands to lose?

Are you watching the game tonight? I rest my case 😍

But if you need a slightly fuller explanation ...... we're a world-class side, currently in unbelievable form and we have home advantage.

Who do you see beating us?

I missed the first half and just switched on to find we’re 6-0 up 🎉🙌🎉🙌

Annoyed to see so many empty seats when I was told all England's games are sold out!

We have thread running here

I didn't know about this board.

Oh MN, thank you for creating this, didn't see it. But creating it really matters

Maybe this should get moved to that board … it’s looking alarmingly sparse

@xalo me too!! I tried to get tickets for this match months ago!

I have answered on the new thread. I wasn’t questioning you because I disagree / don’t want us to win, I just like having a healthy football debate and was therefore intrigued as to why you felt so strongly about it! Come on you Lionesses! 😊

Oh, me too 😍Even if you were disagreeing with me, that's fine; I have frequently occasionally been found to be wrong 😬 I've been watching the women for many years and I just think that our time is nigh 🙏
