How do you plan to get to the game tonight, ginger? No car park, seemingly and no trains because of the strike

Park and ride from MK train station. It was either that or take a very big chance with a local industrial estate, or a Tesco, which is about a 15 minute walk.

good luck for tonight. Give yourself plenty of time... it got a bit hairy time-wise last time IIRC

[Durhamfootman]

After a frenetic first 40 mins, we suddenly have a game. 1-1

harsh on the German keeper to call that an og, but good play from Diani straight after a well taken opener from Popp

[Durhamfootman]

never in doubt

Lionesses -v- the Ericas

Well the logistics of getting there was much better last night. They even had a fan fare at the train station, which was quite lively. More importantly, shed load of buses, so the wait was minimal. In all, a very good afternoon/evening was had. Thought Germany were much better first half and deserved the win, even though France could have easily nicked an equaliser near the end.
The atmosphere was weird. We were in the German end but I reckon half were English, so when Germany did score it was of a polite round of applause.

I expect Germany to win, and have very little expectation (but then I thought Sweden would be the end, so what the hell do I know)..... I think the ladies in someways have defied expectations, so if they eventually lose today, lets hope the d*ckhead brigade wont feel the need to attack them on Twitter.

Over the last few weeks they have totally revolutionised the games reputation in the country, so their place in history should be assured.

Difficult game to predict. Just hop we play as we have been doing and if we do lose it's because the Germans were too good.
