    I've never had much interest in women's football but watched this programme and thoroughly enjoyed it.

    I was really impressed by Shelley Kerr. Everything about her screamed leader - intelligent, determined and a wonderful communicator.

    Obviously I want Scotland to beat England at anything and everything, but it would be magnificent if she had a game plan that led a weaker group of players to a result against Neville's team.

    Shelley Kerr definitelycomes across as an inspirational leader.

    I’ve followed women’s football in Scotland for several years now. I really enjoyed the programme, but once again, Hibs contribution has been airbrushed out.

    They made a big thing about Glasgow City having 11 players or former players in the squad. Hibs have 10. And Shelley played for Hibs.

    I should be used to the weegie bias after all these years, but it’s still annoying.

    Anyway, next stop Nice 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Just watched this excellent!

    Rose Reilly my heroine

    Scottish Womens Football pioneer and World Cup Winner even scoring in the Final

    Inducted into Scottish Footballs Hall of Fame

    Well worth a watch

    SPOILER ALERT!

    This wifie scored for Italy in the World Cup Final even although she was scottish

    She was banned by the narrow minded SFA who refused to recognise a female professional football player back in the 1970s

    She got the lash every day at Primary School just for playing a boys game at play time

    One tough cookie

    I thought that there were a few ex-Hibs players but didn't realise it was that many.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    That's great. She's definitely my favourite character in the team outside of the gaffer.

    Being just old enough to vaguely remember the 1980s TV smash, 'The Manageress' do you think Kerr could cross over to the mens senior game?
    I know she's managed mens sides before, Stirling Uni I think, but could you ever envisage her taking the hot seat at Hibs for example?

    Agree think it was poor not to mention Hibs who have seemed to have been pretty much the dominant team in womens football in Scotland apart from the last 5 years or so and surely merited a mention of some sort for development of some of Scotlands best players such as Kim Little and Caroline Weir (I think). As you say unnecessary bias and lack of context particularly given Hibs recent amazing cup record.

    I remember back when Kerr was manager of Arsenal, they were interviewing her on Talk Sport. Near the end of the interview they asked her who she'd like to win the Scottish Cup final that weekend between Hibs and Celtic. And what did Shelley Kerr, former Hibs player and manager say?

    "Well, I'm a Hearts fan so neither of them!"

    I've forgiven her.

    More likely Hearts if her appearance as a pundit at the Inverness-Hearts semi final was anything to go by. Massive yam!

    It wouldn’t surprise me if Budge considered her for the Hearts job either.
