[Mellotron]

As the title suggests really, apologies if fixtures.

Why is the Amex in the middle of the English Channel?

...and Saint Mary's on the Isle of Wight for that matter?

Not sure I was aware that the Amex was hosting an England game, so that's great news. Will try and get tickets.

No worries, it's actually just one fixture so you're alright.

How did Leigh manage to host a game? Surely there must be plenty more suitable football stadiums in that area. I never realised that Leigh RMI were still going, let alone in a 12,000 seater stadium.

Actually in the provisional schedule, Brighton will host 3 games - 2 group games including one England game and the first quarterfinal (which would involve England if they win their group):

Its where the Man Utd womens team play. Its a relatively new ground I think

Fun stuff! Not sure how much women's football can grow on a league level, but the hype around World/Euro cups are here to stay.

Nothing to do with Leigh RMI. Its the home of Leigh Centurions (rugby League)

Opened in 2008. It is a very BASIC ground.

Man United use it for a lot of women's and age group stuff. The Albion's FA Youth Cup game was played there last season.
