Will there be a bank holiday if the Lionesses win the World Cup?
Unfortunately, the government has turned down the chances of an extra bank holiday for a win.
As a government spokesperson previously said: "The current pattern of public and bank holidays is well established and there are no plans to change this."
Can Lauren James play in the World Cup Final?
Although Lauren James was banned from two games following a red card, she can play in the World Cup Final if England boss Sarina Wiegman gives the go-ahead.
James's ban lasted the two previous games, against Comloubia and Australia, meaning so could still go against Spain for the final.
