Don't fall in to the trap of comparing the women's game with the men's game.

It's different, and should be treated on its own merits.

And in terms of participation, the women's international v. Germany on 7 November is sold out. And I am talking Wembley stadium, not some non-league ground. A good thing, in my own view.

I do agree but let's not fall into the international trap. The real money is at the club level and average league games are rising but still too low to justify anywhere close to mens wages. I mentioned in a previous post, get out of the shadow of mens and re brand entirely and I think it could be a future success.

For me one of the most annoying things about having womens football is that the BBC results service not only gives the scores from the most remote unknown mens teams in Europe but also womens.It is becoming quicker to read War and Peace than it is to read the full results service!
