Euro 2017

[Rockford's Love Child]

Don't know if anyone else has been watching, but Jodie Taylor scored her fifth goal of the competition as England beat France in the Quarter Finals tonight. The ex-Rover has been the outstanding player of the tournament so far.

Her story is interesting. She has been a good player for many years, but only broke into the England team when Mark Sampson took over. The BBC website tells the story. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40759335

I watched the last half an hour or so and was a bit nervous towards the end! They have a real chance now of winning it, Taylors finish was decent although the keeper gave her an easy decision to make. She's has an interesting career playing all over the world. What impressed me wasn't just her goal but her workrate too.

I havent seen any games. Do they spit every time there is a modicum of exertion or a shot on goal? Do they leave a trailing leg to catch a body part of the opposing player so as to get a free kick? ;0)

No Mal, it's all very sophisticated.

Just watching England on BBC2 go one nil up at the Kop end.

Nice to see a team in white scoring at Prenton park for a change!

Wow Jodie Taylor with a second

Best football I have seen at pp for a while, lol. England are really good technically, better than I thought watching them on TV. Decent crowd here, so we will make a bit of money.

 

[Boz]

What size crowd? Good result for the Ladies Team.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Just over 7,000. We probably made at least £50,000 from it, which is something in our current predicament.

When was the last time an item from PP made the Ten o'Clock News? Let's hope it happens again soon and for the right reasons.
