Watching the Leicester game from home, because I’ve only just tested negative, and the commentator has made lots of mistakes today but saying that “the referee has blown up” might be my favourite slip of all

Horrible, horrible news. I’m sure Liverpool’s fans will pay an incredible tribute to him, but it’s a huge loss for the women’s game

[David Lynch voice] Football, once again

Every time the FIA puts up one of those “incident” graphics they should have to play the clip of Leclerc saying “just an inchident”

I think if I had booze in my house every time I watched this United team I’d be an alcoholic

harry maguire player-manager, anyone?

Glad to be back at the “we’re so back” stage of a Manchester United season

ENGLAND ARE NEVER DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is going to kill me tbh

ENGLAND ARE NEVER DONE

ITV Curse strikes again, innit

Leah Williamson Lucy Bronze Chloe Kelly Michelle Agyemang Hannah Hampton the women that you ARE

[clears throat] and it’s HI-HO HANNAH HAMPTON EVERYWHERE YOU GO

I Iove the break glass in case of emergency paper instructions in football

OH MY GOD

Extremely pleased that England are doing well but icl, I feel bad for the Welsh given how we’re 2-0 up

Oh that SLAPPED tbh

Genuinely think if the Lionesses win tonight it might pull me out of this Sadness Funk, at least temporarily

These twinks are so messy, I love it

Shoutout to Becky Hill for trying to make God Save The King at the British Grand Prix her Whitney Houston doing the Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl and failing pretty spectacularly

Trying to remember this is just the first game, tbh. Plenty to do but plenty of chances to come

I have no idea why I ever doubted Hannah Hampton tbh. New Queen of Stops just dropped

We’re on for the Lionesses, let’s goooooooo

Shout out to the lesbians on their way to the Lionesses game who took a selfie by the road sign for the street the stadium is on (Raw Dykes Road)

Engerluuuund (also! SEVEN NIL! Bloody hell)

Time to save this season (or continue to fuck it up), let’s gooooo

Dipped on the Lyon game bc United are often (esp this season) bad for my mental health and I’m already getting that elsewhere. Checked a liveblog at half time and came back to it thinking “it’s absolutely 2-2 now, isn’t it” [in the most weary voice possible] Wheeee

0-0 at the end of the first half and ngl, it’s been a bit shit. No real bite from either side. Lad(ie)s, it’s Tottenham.

It’s actually kind of sunny for once at the King Power… nice weather for four home wins in a row for Leicester women? Maybe? As a little treat?

Oh shit, here we go again (v Brighton)

Time for me to be the Sleepy Bowl Champion, am I right

I have no idea how I’m supposed to watch more football after Kendrick just killed a man on live television

That DeJean touchdown, holy shit

Outside of the frantically checking my understanding of the game this has been real fun to watch

VAR really is everywhere, huh

You’re telling me a guy called Dickerson who’s number 69 is playing? GO BIRDS

Quietly imagining how mad it’d be if we tried to rip off all this weird nationalism stuff for the FA Cup, tbh

I have absolutely no stakes in the Super Bowl, and am mostly going to be watching for Kendrick, but uh. Go birds

lol. lmao, even.

What a win this afternoon for #LCFC Women: they eked out a win in grinding, drab, blustery January coldrain (not like the fresh, carolling cold of Christmastime), the sort that seeps between layers & seems to bring the sun’s very existence into doubt. But somehow they found the warmth of a win... 🦊💙

A work colleague (a scouse butch lesbian who is really fucking cool) came down as part of the away contingent so we got a lil selfie but with our thoughts on the game that had just happened

Taking a pal to the football for the first time to see Leicester Women play Liverpool and… nice day for it, I guess?

There is only one way I can currently bear to watch United, and it’s by hoping they do well and then catching the highlights

I do kinda love how pissed off Højlund is that he’s not getting the ball. Clearly feeling hungry for chances on goal, you love to see it

I don’t like Amazon that much but icl, it’s going to suck next season when all the Boxing Day games are behind the Sky/TNT duopoly — Prime is way less expensive, and it’s way less of a faff to get on your parents’ TV if you’re away. Just a profoundly worse experience

Nothing makes me happier than Pep Guardiola suffering ngl

[goes away from The Computer for an hour] WAIT WE WON??

1-1 in the end; a nervy end to the second half but impressive to get a point against Chelsea and frankly the crowd treated it like a victory with good reason!
