We're heading for a grey, dull, miserable era I think....  :-\

The England ladies team train in Sandhurst and I discovered this by accident one day whilst in the grounds.  Womens rugby has really come on leaps and bounds over the past 5 years and I like watching it now whereas before I would watch it because Emily Scarratt was playing out of loyalty.

I bumped in to the England ladies football team last year when they were staying at the same hotel as I was.  Some of them were very easy on the eye but most of them had very nice posteriors indeed.  Unfortunately that would be the only reason to watch football for me, cant stand the game these days.

No, it's great days had been in the 1890's Opti with massive crowds watching woman's league and cup games. In 1921 the English FA actually banned women's football from all their grounds and it's resurgence didn't take place until the 1960's.  It is only now being taken seriously alongside  men's football. ;)

Football is a game for girls anyway so doesn't really count as a step forward.

Wasn't that the era when 'players' were considered a lower social class than most, including prostitutes?  Hardly a great era for players and I suspect even worse if you were a woman?

No, not that I have read.  I think you are thinking of actresses who were considered of loose morals.  Certainly during WW1 women played football as teams from the factories, were they worked on war production as a replacement to the men fighting at the front.  They achieved some celebratrity, but that slowly disappeared when the men returned from the war and took over from the women.  Women were then shunted back to their stereotypical roles, and in 1921 the FA banned women's football from their grounds as it was ‘quite unsuitable for females’ !!! :o :o ;)
