useless Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Just seen that Small Heath have sacked their manager Scott Booth, he was seen as a coup for them in the summer relative to their standing, as he was seen to have done a good job in Scotland with Glasgow City, I think he'd won six titles with them. BBC originally reported that he'd been told that he'd be allowed to sign players from overseas, but then after he was appointed fount out that they'd failed to pay the fee that would allow those players to get work visas, that's been removed now, so maybe it was disputed, but either way seems a shambles behind the scenes.

useless Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 As for us, we play Man City away tomorrow, not sure what's going on with them they went from being comfortably second best to only Chelsea last season to losing four of their first seven games this season, and winning only two, they're below us in the table as it stands. They will probably pick up at some point and will be favorites tomorrow, but would be nice if we could sneak a result whilst they're out of form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the likes of Missy and Isobel Goodwin, along with Mary McAteer and a few of the others might have started as well. But good chance for some of the older first team squad members to get some game time. Sheffield United not doing great in the championship, so normally I think we'd be expectd to win comfortably, but the side we've put out might even things up.

My goodness, your either racist or sexist on here lately?? Women react differently, that's fact!! Although it happens in the mens game too ya know, which is why managers lose the dressing room.

useless Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 We were drawing 0-0 at half-time so I very much doubt that Carla Ward will have given them grief, at that point we would have been very pleased with that scoreline. Also can't recall a trend of us collapsing in the second half of games, that's only really happened today and against Arsenal, Arsenal have been the best women's side by some distance for a while now, and whist Man City haven't been as good this season, today's result was always a possibility and they will probably be top four come the end of the season, so losing to those two is no great surprise whether the goals come in the first or second half. Today's result illustrates why last weekend's win against small heath was so important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Our U21s beat Liverpool 4-1 today to move back to the top of the table, seven wins and one draw from eight games so far. At first team level both Leicester and small heath lose, so at least the points gap between us and the bottom of the table is maintained. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Playing Sunderland at 12pm in the Conti Cup... Game is live on the FA Player... Rogers, Mayling, Asante, Sargeant, Pacheco, Blindkilde, Allen, Littlejohn, Petzlberger, Lehmann, Gielnik Subs: Hampton, N'dow, Arthur, Boye-Hlorkah, Hutton, McLouhlin, Davison, Ewers. A much more experienced team than I was expecting Laura Blindkilde the only one who still plays for the academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
