Howard Webb has called on his fellow South Yorkshire natives to cheer England’s Women to victory over Belgium at Rotherham United’s New York Stadium.
Mark Sampson’s side will resume their Euro 2017 qualifying campaign on Friday 8 April, having already collected two wins from two – against Estonia and Bosnia.

And Webb, England’s most celebrated referee and one of Rotherham’s most famous fans, wants a full house to help the Lionesses extend their 100% record in Group 7.
He said: “We need the support of everyone in Rotherham to come down and make the New York Stadium rock for our Lionesses.
“They have had a great start to their campaign on the back of an amazing performance at the World Cup in Canada.”
Webb, who took charge of the 2010 World Cup Final, added: “I’d urge anyone to come down and watch some great athletes playing some great football and hopefully continuing that great start to their qualifiers.”
Tickets are priced £5 for adults and £2.50 for children. A family ticket is available at £10 (two adults and two children).
Tickets can be bought via TheFA.com/Tickets or by calling 08444 140 754.
