Yes , she played for them before ... Also Chelsea, and capped for England....
It's great when you know them personally...
She was amazing.
The only lass that was allowed to play in the lads footy team at school she was that good !!

Not heard of that player,think Leeds ladies fairly low in the leagues.We had a girl playing for an under12s team I used to play for the only famousish players that were part of later teams were Trevor Ross and a Blackburn reserve goal keeper,I am sure though that David Batty or a lookalike played in one of the Sunday leagues we were part of(at one stage we tried to get a mixed team going,some good training sessions but never got of the ground)I never liked the seriousness of the game when it got to a certain level,some of them knocked the fun out of it.

Hi POD , may well of been David Batty.
Of course we knew the Yoraths too , Jordan , the youngest in one of my other sons class .
Lovely family.
I sat next to lad at school that was a child actor and went on to become a TV presenter , but that was not sport related LOL..

You were talking about chess before.
I can't play chess, but was surprised ( don't quite know why) to learn from that gentleman that it's big in India ..
He was saying football not as popular as cricket over there, but I wasn't expecting chess !

I met a chap who was writing a böok on chess,it was him who told me it started in the Vedic times,have not looked into the history of the game though and I expect there will be dispute about it's origin(one take on history via the Vedas is that the whole globe was India,a Vedic culture,which has shrank to what we know todax as that country)

Well you could use the ' prawns ' for a lovely Curry with boiled rice and a portion of chips, yummy, or mybe a crispy Stir Fry with Rice Noodles, use your imagination AB

Just found out that UEFA received 9,000 complaints from LFC and Madrid supporters about the final. Wow, I thought it was only 3,000.

Apparently the independent panel recommended 21 changes to be done at all venues for European championship games.

I wonder if that will get done hey?
