       I'd also be worried about the sub goalie who came on!

       For those going to the Norway game: are we meeting before the
       game in some city centre or Riverside pub?

       Yeah, Flaherty is a serious downgrade on Burns.

       Rebecca McKenna was named in the squad but wasn't in the
       matchday squad - presumably she's carrying an injury because any
       time I've seen she's been excellent and should definitely start
       ahead of Magee.
       As alluded to above, if Jackie Burns misses a game for whatever
       reason then we're in big trouble because Flaherty is awful.

       I definitely think McKenna is the better player too. IIRC she
       was dropped for the England game in place of Magee, which for me
       was a really bad move. From what I've seen of Magee she's been
       really poor, but it's hard to judge as she's been playing
       against England and Belgium.

       Was that the only practice game the ladies got for their Euro`s
       preparations, or did i get this wrong?
       If it was how on earth did they only manage to get one game
       arranged, surely there were other teams available to play even
       if they weren't of a great standard.

       Happy enough with that squad, apart from Abbie Magee.

       Notice that Jackie Burns is listed as without a club. The move
       to the Swedish champions obviously didn't work out. Slightly
       surprised that Kerry Beattie didn't make the squad, though she
       didn't last long at Glasgow City. And feel sorry for Ciara
       Watling, who already plays in Southampton. She always looks a
       straightforward sort of player, not prone to taking part in
       dodgy passing movements on the edge of her own penalty area.
