The BBC are obviously delighted headlining the achievement on this evening’s news at 6. More partying on the Wirral this evening I suspect. | ![](/images/avatars/9937.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

The Lionesses. on 20:46 - Aug 7 by union_jack | Well you need to get to knockout stages to take part in a penalty shootout. |
Won nothing ever away from England. In 1966 only 6 nations played football seriously so its not really comparable with modern achievements which are truly global in nature. Cymru made the knockouts 3 times out of 4. Thats ‘us’ btw, i know that does not include yourself - and thats fair enough. Kick it Henry, kick it ….🏴☕️ | ![](/images/avatars/9736.gif) |

🎣 ……. ✊🏾 England had 86 professional clubs, Wales had 4. I think in 1966 it was only …. England, West Germany (not even all of it), Brazil, Argentina, Portugal and the Hungarians maybe who had any chance at all. Well done to them and Bobby Charlton was a bit special, but even Scotland beat them at Wembley in 1967. The Baxter game. Look it up, you will enjoy that. The England team were not even as good as the England 1970 WC team. In truth an achievement of sorts yes, but comparable to modern teams …. No. | ![](/images/avatars/9736.gif) |

Very lucky today. Nigeria were the better side and should have had a penalty. Such is football. Australia starting to look like they could go all the way and win it | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Ah, the fishing line. 74 teams competed for 14 places at the 1966 World Cup. I watched the Scotland game, they were outstanding on the day. But sadly like Wales and Northern Ireland failed to qualify for the 1966 Cup. Oh, and Welsh players have played for English teams since the Football league was founded | ![](/images/avatars/8653.gif) |

This is the thing, commenting on the English ladies doesn't mean we are supporting them. We comment on other matches all the time, it doen't mean we are supporting all those teams. I watched the last mens World Cup after Wales went out, was I supporting all those other teams then? it was much spoken about on here. Suddenly though, talking about the English ladies means we are all turncoats. That's sad. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
The Lionesses. on 16:39 - Aug 8 with 1075 views | Whiterockin | On another ladies sport. IMO Jess Thirlby the England netball coach must be the fittest coach in sport. Yes sexist I know and apologise. But I bet you Google her. | ![](/images/avatars/9155.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
The Lionesses. on 13:18 - Aug 9 with 981 views | mangohilljack | The women's World Cup is quite a spectacle, surprisingly enjoying the tournament with the girls playing in front of 50-75000 crowds. England were very lucky against Nigeria and based on performances so far will be knocked out Saturday or at the very latest semi's.

Based in performances to date, difficult to disagree. I think they’ve got more in them though.r | ![](/images/avatars/8799.gif) |
