Women’s football is fine and stands completely on its own. Must admit I’m not entirely won over by the idea of watching women’s games in the flesh because of the fan culture – or lack of it. Even watching on TV, I find something about the TV coverage grating – so relentless positive & lacking in nuance. The game is perfectly good enough to withstand criticism, it doesn’t need everyone to cheerlead from the sidelines. Understandable though, I guess, given the battle the game has faced to get to where it is today.
