I feel bad for saying it but no, not really... I can't really find two facets of the same sport interesting enough to keep up with, outside of international tournaments when I'll support England obviously.

I follow Arsenal Ladies from time to time but wouldn't really watch a game; I rarely watch the men's game despite having Sky Sports but I have to admit the main draw to watching football is to keep up with friends who watch the same stuff, so if no one I know is watching women's football, I don't really see any point if I have no one to talk about it with.

No. It's just not very good. Obviously it's a young sport, and so as it improves I'll happily watch it, but not at the moment.

My Dad watches it....but if you told him that knitting was a sport and they put it on Sky Sports, he'd watch it

I wouldn't sit down a watch a game though...

No, but am not interested in football fullstop.

If I liked football, I would prefer watching the womens I would think, especially given from what I hear, the womens team is better than the mens? (relatively. I know the men would run rings in a women v men match...no need to say that!)

I’ve honestly enjoyed following the United ladies this year. Casey Stoney is doing a great job. Usually though it’s just the world cups and steam USA if I’m being honest.

I like it cuz I'm dead woke.

To be serious, the skill level is very high but obvious the physicality is not the same and there are far more dodgy keepers in the women's game that there ever could be in the mens game. I like that most good games become very tactical.

The women's team have done ok in some major tournaments in the last few years but are ranked lower than the men atm and think they've been pretty lacklustre recently

I do watch England women in major tournaments and would watch West Ham if they were in cup finals etc but otherwise no

Nothing against it, its just a completely different product

I'm not massively into football in general, I like watching Liverpool play because of Gavin really, we always have a good laugh watching games with a few drinks or at the Pub when there was such a thing as going to the Pub. The sports I'm actually into boxing and MMA, I like the womens as much as the men's really, currently my favourite fighters from each are women (Katie Taylor & Amanda Nunes)

Promoting woman's football is done for a reason. It's all about dividing, that's the goal for the people who run things. Divide and conquer, that's the plan in all walks of life. We see them.
