@SuzyWrack And then some of us are trying to reach these larger platforms and it feels impossible to make people care! 😤

‘Wiegman and Southgate have different management styles. Wiegman also looks as if she really wants to win trophies, whereas Southgate seems to want to do well but that doesn’t necessarily mean winning.’

‘Southgate is one of two England managers to reach two major tournament finals, along with Sarina Wiegman, the Lionesses’ manager, and we won the Euros “as a nation” as recently as 2022.’

‘In football men are too often forgiven for the wrong things and penalised for getting it right.’

#LoveIsland but it’s just you, texting your lad mates asking if they are watching the football tonight & the ones who reply ‘what football?’ get dumped from your life 🌴#ENG #IRL

‘Corbin Shaw began making flags after the death of his father’s longtime companion on the terraces. The first one was a parody of a Sheffield United banner that instead of “we hate Wednesday” said “we should talk about our feelings”.’

‘A friend observed that if England go all the way – a big if – we’ll never have to worry about a Conservative government again; for superstitious reasons no football fan will ever vote for them.’

‘Despite the inflated salaries of footballers, I still think it unreasonable to expect players who belong to marginalised communities to perform their best for the national team when the message is always clear: you’re one of us until you’re not.’

‘Starmer at least genuinely follows football. In May, Sunak asked brewery staff in the Vale of Glamorgan if they were looking forward to the Euros, not long after Wales had narrowly failed to qualify.’

‘It isn’t so much that the perception of women’s football is changing; more that as each milestone is passed, it’s easier to block out the noise.’
