Marc Skinner predicts that WSL games this weekend will end with 'walking football'.
Transcript
00:00 I might be predicting the future and I might get it wrong, but I'd imagine every game this
00:04 opening weekend will end with walking football at the end. So by the last 20 minutes it'll probably
00:09 be like walking football because they'll be people that are fatigued, they're not up to
00:14 scratch and not up to the minutes they need right now and from my perspective it's a crazy way to
00:21 just shovel games in. I get the format, I get the intent, but I'm not even sure the international
00:29 managers were happy with it. Some might have been that didn't compete in the World Cup but others
00:34 won't be. So from my perspective I think it's a strange window and will definitely lead to
00:39 a lack of cohesion for a lot of teams going into all of their markets, not just England.
00:44 So yeah, maybe I haven't gone as scathing as Willy, but yeah it definitely wasn't ideal.
