The Lionesses

I'm not a football fan. Never have been. I see it like I see the WWE - staged. There's way too much money in it for it not to be. My eyes glaze over and my head looks for a different kind of Zen-Zone when people start talking about their favourite clubs and who 'bought' who and for how much. I just don't care. Football bores me.

That said, I watched the Lionesses play today. I watched them lose, and I saw their sullen, teary faces after the game. From where I'm looking, these girls did good. I am hugely proud of them. That's my team, that's my club. From now on, I will follow nothing else but the England Women's Squad.

It's a natural fit. They're Lionesses. 

And my name is Singh.
