@TomJGarry The omens not looking great for 🏴 as they head to Saint-Étienne, especially as Stade Geoffroy-Guichard is the very place they last lost a qualifier (before last night) in the WWC 2003 qualifying play-offs.
Reaching WWC 2007 with a 1-1 draw in 🇫🇷 felt like an absolute triumph!
Absolutely loved this! The Invincibles by @AmandaPlays - well worth a trip to Hornchurch.
A powerful and moving story with a surprising chance to relive recent memories!
Check out these stunning shots of The Invincibles! 🤩 Catch the show before it closes!

Instead of heading to the USA, @Lionesses embarked on a run of friendlies in preparation for hosting Euro 2005.
Burnley's own @rach_brown1 started & @rachelyankey11 won the match with a goal in 1st min!
🏴&🇦🇺 would not play a competitive match until their @FIFAWWC semi-final.
Look back 20 yrs for a snapshot of how things used to be...
#OTD in 2003 @Lionesses faced @TheMatildas for the very 1st time, in a friendly at Turf Moor.
The visitors were on their way to a 3rd @FIFAWWC while 🏴 had failed to qualify, having lost to 🇫🇷 in the play-off final.

I'll kick it off: @CatherineEtoe@stattohub & I spent several months in 2022/2023 digging about and tapping away 💻 to pull together 'FIFA Women's World Cup 2023 - The Official Guide' which is available from 'all good book stores' (and online sellers) now.
Wow, 20 years!
I missed this exquisite piece of broadcasting as was in the crowd at St Mary's. Was also in Shizuoka four months before then. Does that mean it was all my fault?
20 years since David Seaman conceded direct from a Artim Šakiri corner and the BBC lingered for a little bit too long on his philosophical, 39-year-old face
I promise you, @faye_white & I were there, on the 'walk round', it's just that we were being interviewed & then we were bringing up the rear as fast as our weary legs could manage🤦♀️😉🤣👍👏👏⚽️⚽️⚽️🏴🏴🏴🏴
@CatherineEtoe I've never noticed before that the 2007 Final was a year to the day after England qualified!
Guess it's due to knowing they probably wouldn't be playing in it. Not so clear cut these days, eh?! 🤞
Ah, the start of many more book adventures with @CatherineEtoe!
And was this the last time England properly celebrated qualifying for a @FIFAWWC finals?
#OTD 16 years ago we watched Hope Powell's England draw with France in Rennes to qualify for a first @FIFAWWC since 1995. Returned home to write the story of that campaign, Three Lions on her Shirt ⚽
A WSL record attendance of 47,367 at The Emirates today for Arsenal 4-0 Tottenham. 👍
Here’s how the record has evolved since the very first WSL match, when 2,510 watched Chelsea 0-1 Arsenal in Tooting in April 2011.
