Noted, but with the discussion surrounding whether power and weight were relevant to success in Women's football, I found this stat quite interesting. Looking at the England forward line in particular, I noticed that they dominated the aerial battles v Spain. Perhaps that physical edge also gave...

My mum bought me the 1978 Scotland world cup kit. It was in the bargain bin at our local sports shop. I've still got Rod Stewart's supporting single somewhere too.

I'm bedding a shower tray down this week. The manufacturers recommend bedding down on blobs of mortar, but I removed a tray a few years back and the cement blobs beneath it had dried and crumbled away leaving areas of the tray unsupported. Can anyone suggest an alternative? Thanking you kindly!

Now that's what I call an answer!

So the tallest team did actually win the tournament. Interesting.

It's great that women's football is getting good coverage. That may be because it's a cheap option for the broadcasters, but if it inspires females of all ages to get into a sport, that's a very good thing.

Fair play! Love it!

My lad played for Norwich at U16. It's an incredibly physical game, and the lads are taught to be intimidating in order to get the upper hand psychologically. It's a simple point of fact that no female would ever have been able to compete in that merciless arena. It's about weight, power and...

Any bicycle kicks? Haha!

Really useful! Thank you!!

Spain women average 5ft 7, so let's see what happens...

Interesting. Just googled it. England average 5ft 10! Finland only 5ft 6! Hmm...

I'd like to see the physical stats. I mean, I wonder if the most successful women's team are also the biggest?

So... rather than break the law and risk life and limb, asylum seekers should just stay put... unless France is considered a hostile country. Which it isn't.

It should be though. That's the point. I had to fill in countless forms, share my DBS, supply references and demonstrate that I could be an asset to the country... as opposed to a drain.

No, but like those who use the French 'ferry service' (merci beaucoup) I was trying to move from one lovely country to another.

Admit it, you've just clapped it out! Lol

I spent £800 trying to secure residency in NZ, but I failed. They didn't need any more teachers at that time. So, did I: a. Pay people traffickers to get me into the country illegally b. Count my blessings and crack on with my life France is perfectly safe. My son is taking his family there in...

I went to a 'football match' in NZ a few years back and I realised that only Brits know how to do football chants properly. Sorry Kiwis, but you're so bad at it. For example: 'CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP...' is supposed to be followed by a TWO syllable team name!! It doesn't...

I managed to save head space in our loft by adding a second 4" joist [literally] on top of the existing ones! We used C24 timber, and the two joists had to be connected every 600mm with steel fixing plates. Building Regs were happy and there was zero flex in the floor.
