Happy with Ang but dubious about where it might lead. 

Mourinho, Antonio and whoever else has been in the chair since Poch has been unable to properly loosen Levy's purse strings (Poch couldn't do it either), so there's no reason to expect that will change now. The owners seem content to be contending / qualifying for CL, rather than seriously chasing silverware.

Talk at the moment has 3/4 of the squad being shipped out, and if Kane goes too, then a rebuild is basically on the cards - something which probably should have started a few seasons back.

Moyes was the wrong man for the united job and it set his managerial career into a downward spiral.

Seeing his celebration and raw emotion after winning his first major trophy hit me in the feels a little.

Football is about moments and unbridled passion and the Hammers win this morning was in abundance of that.

Congrats to City, I can't/don't want to say anything else about it but the Treble is a massive achievement.

Bring on the Summer transfer market.

I'll be taking an active interest in the Women's World Cup.  Might get to a game or 3 if work permits

Matilda's need to start well ... the other 3 teams in our group are Ireland, Nigeria & Canada

From what I can gather, the top 10 teams are as follows ...

USA, England, Spain, Germany, Australia

France, Sweden, Netherlands, Brazil, Canada

Starts July 20th so just over a month away

Arsenal closing in on Declan Rice with the fee believed to be in the region of £105 mil. Huge outlay but a small price to pay if it keeps them in the title race.

Big night for the Matilda's tonight in front of an enormous TV audience

The team has a huge following and a win tonight would bring an even bigger following

The question is ... will Sam Kerr play? 

Go Matilda's Go Go Go!!

Pretty good first half. Great trap and pass by Fowler to set up that goal.

Terrible coverage to not be showing all of the finals on FTA

I agree ... and CH7 will be kicking themselves now as the TV audiences have been enormous

And yes, a world class through-ball by Fowler.  And then the nutmeg by Foord upon scoring!

That's a tremendous win to the Matilda's ... we played very well and needed to

And ran out the game well, too good for Denmark

Sam Kerr gets some vital minutes so augers well for Sam & the team for their next encounter ... 5.00pm Saturday vs France or Morocco.  An ideal lead-in to our clash with the Blues on Saturday evening

Definitely opened up a bit with the eliminations of Germany, USA, Brasil.

Japan/Spain have impressed me the most this tournament. predicting a Spain vs England final. 

But knockout football, anything can happen.

I want to like soccer, I really do. I see the appeal and the skill.

But watching Japan vs Sweden tonight and I'm yet again left frustrated with the game.

Penalties for players falling over their own feet, players carrying on like they've been shot after incidental boot on boot contact, or any contact for that matter.

Umpires calling time with a whistle, yet allowing play to continue some seconds or minutes past the end and injury time. 

So much is ripe for corruption, and poor umpiring in one moment in the game can decide the outcome.

All on board the Matilda train but beyond that soccer will fade into the ether for me.

She seems to be kicking up a gear now.

Will you ever see a better goal? 

Foord in acres of space. I was fuming for about a split second when she took the shot.

That 3rd goal for England clinches it you'd reckon

Sam's had 2 more great chances but couldn't finish

Need a miracle now

Nice run Matildas

England have made the most of their chances.

Thought Fowler had a fantastic tournament for us.

Glad they're finally getting the recognition they've deserved for many years punching way above their weight.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
