"Not really although I thought the last World Cup was good the quality is good now and it seems to be getting bigger and better " I agree | |||

"There are many positive aspects - more respect for match officials, less feigning injury - and the skill and fitness levels are pretty impressive compared to a decade ago I think the issue that the women's game has is the ability to draw in large numbers of fans on a commercial basis regularly. Most of the well attended games have benefited from free or very cheap tickets and have either been major tournaments or have been played when men's football is on a break It will be difficult to get many existing men's football fans to go to both a men's and a women's match each weekend because of both time commitment and cost However, it may attract new or lapsed fans (particularly families) who enjoy the more relaxed atmosphere and lower aggression levels on the pitch If nothing else it could get more girls interested in playing sport" At community level... Marvellous. Anything to get and keep girls in sport is good. As an elite and professional sport that can survive on its own funding. I think it's highly unlikely any time soon. Currently I have little interest in watching women's elite football and I don't know many others who are. They may well be fit and skillful and corinthians, but it's far away from the diet we have got used to and will take time to break that mould. | |||

The women's were far better to watch. Excellent sportsmanship meant the women spent so much more time actually playing football, they demonstrated great skill and athleticism and generated a fantastic atmosphere. | |||
