TheGunnShow 6,001 Posted August 19, 2023 Will be tight, I think. Spain showed against Japan that pace and precision can tear them apart, but England haven't really shown that in their locker. Conversely, England have looked a resilient team missing some of the better players, whilst as a team they can withstand a lot of pressure and are excellent in match situations without really excelling. I think there'll be some very good football played in spells, but it's a final - it's more likely to be tense with both teams being a shade more conservative over the match. If you're to push me for a predo, England to nick it in extra time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,315 Posted August 19, 2023 Two ways this is going, tight game and probably penalties, or an early goal for England and probably a 3-0 win because any open pitch plays bang into Englands hands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those wanting to watch Norwich will attend, and those for the final will stay away. I suspect the stadium will be full of nearly full. Can only wait to see what actually happens though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect the stadium will be full of nearly full. Can only wait to see what actually happens though. And those not involved with supporting Norwich or Millwall will be packing the pubs and clubs out for the England game. Hard to get tickets for the main venues up here. I am totally outnumbered, whilst I am travelling down to Norwich, my wife, daughter, her husband, 4 grandkids and around 20 others ( friends and family ) are off to watch England on a big screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,800 Posted August 19, 2023 Its a Norwich match at carrow rd...norwich fans will be there, the lure of a live match vs a game on tv being played on the other side of the world that has no connection to NCFC will prove enough (except for the odd one or two who have been bleating and crying on here for the past few days) ...for those who have a passing interest will ,I'm sure negotiate this 45 min overlap by watching/listening to phones/radio..

And no, I won't mention that it's kicking off at almost the same time as us as let's be honest that's been talked to death and it all it's done is cause people to start screaming at and insulting each other and I'm surprised our unnamed invisible moderator has not stepped in and put an end to that fire of a thread So hey, let's ignore all that nonsense and keep things nice and friendly in here. Got to be a few people looking forward to seeing how the match between England and Spain goes right? Should be an interesting one. Anybody got any predictions? Yes you’ll find another 3 ways of reposting the same message before kick off tomorrow ; - ) only joking I actually think England will win comfortably 4-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh God, thoughts and prayers to the gammons who read that. Not sure how they will cope now even Wagner is saying the women's game should be respected. If you've a Norwich supporting family or friend one who can't help tweeting or posting that they think female goalies are ****, check in with them regularly.

littleyellowbirdie 2,595 Posted August 19, 2023 I've decided I'll watch the England game tomorrow and check in on the Norwich game at half time and full time. To be honest, I'm a little angry on behalf of the lionesses with the degree of contempt their achievement is being treated with by those with most influence. The PM won't be there; no senior royal will be there; domestic football is carrying on regardless. These women have worked hard to generate as much interest in the women's sport as they have, but they're getting virtually no support at all from any of our leaders. I'd be quite pleased to see Sir Keir Starmer there tomorrow. It'd be a great opportunity for him to show he can act like a leader when nobody else is inclined to. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amusing that the Queen of Spain will be at the match cheering on Spain. But will our King be there? Nope. Will his son be there? Nope. Or a cousin? Prehaps some distant relative twice removed? Nope. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
