How good is Women's football?

I always thought that we may see a Woman in the Premier league but I'm not so sure that a woman would be good enough for League 2 let alone non League sides.
What made me change my mind was the Harry Redknapp program where the 1966 World Cup teams were going to play each other and a very unfit and fat England team still beat (I think) Crystal Palace Ladies when I thought the women would have run circles round them.

So if we took the England team which league do you think they would do OK in?

Thanks everybody, that last story linked by McBain shows the level.

wasnt there a clip somewhere of an old man harry Redknapp running circles around the england womens team? was within 2 or 3 years ago I think

Harry Redknapp had a two parter on earlier this year where old English players were going up against old German players, I think it was mentioned above by me.
Anyway, while totally unfit our men played Crystal Palace ladies and still beat them.

I've really been enjoying this World Cup, there has been some great football and the Keepers are way better than they used to be however I still know I'm watching the football skills of a well trained 15 year old school boy team.
