That’s a rugby tackle

Nice wake up call into what European football is

Look rattled as ****

Brilliant from Barnes & Thomas there

Putting it lightly! It was mentioned in one of the reports about it too (Telegraph I think) but yeah it’s not going down well here or at Brum.

Couple of Birthday’s in the women’s team last week looking at social media, can probably draw links to who is involved there, fact that as many as 10 attended means almost half the squad ffs

A Leicester City spokesman said: "The club was extremely disappointed to learn of this breach, which had the potential to undermine the extensive work of club staff to provide our professional teams with safe environments in which to train and play. "Moreover, such behaviour undermines the national effort in which our communities continue to play their part, making daily personal sacrifices to control the spread of the virus. "It is in this context that we set high behavioural standards for our personnel which, in this instance, have not been met. Our response to the matter will be concluded internally." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/56103097

Nothing like Leicester and a scandal...

Just seen that Huddersfield who are leading the National League North won’t be applying for promotion to the Championship even if they win their league because of the finances involved...real shame it’s still such an issue

Was hoping it’d be shown over here but with England not being involved looks like it’ll be a stream job!

LCFC’s Ash Plumptre and a City fan from Canada were on Talksport’s women’s football show last night

3-0 up in the 7 minutes Perez was on the pitch...hope that’s not as bad as it looks

Finished 3-0, lovely goal from Caroline Weir to wrap it up

I’d like to think that 6th-10th range...The top 4 are all well clear with Everton not far behind then you’ve got a Reading side that are rebuilding but are very solid and an inconsistent but promising Brighton, Spurs are hard to get a read of but don’t seem anything special, Birmingham hiring Carla Ward in the Summer is the only thing that’s kept them out of the relegation zone and if she goes the club are in a mess, Villa will probably improve with a years experience, West Ham are only going one way and lastly Bristol City look much better than last place since Matt Beard took over but are still probably a couple players short of doing anything

Man City 1-0 up at half time, would half open the door for Arsenal to get back in the race for the 3rd Champions League place if they didn’t look so void of ideas lately

No need to worry lads, we’ve got one replacement lined up at least

Yeah I guess it has been, I’ve just started a thread in the General Football & Sport forum, see if there’s any interest there 👍

I guess for anyone that wants to discuss the game or ask genuine questions about it this might be the place Manchester City play Manchester United tomorrow night at 7pm on BT Sport, both sides still in the title hunt with Chelsea Then there’s 5 games from across the WSL/Championship on the FA Player service on Sunday including Leicester away to Durham at 12pm

Sunday’s game will also now be live on FA Player

Yes, it’s still an investment to give it to the women’s team rather than flog it to a developer though. Top/King Power are bank rolling us just like the men’s team, before their takeover last summer it was just the Morgan family and you get basically nothing just for promotion, before Barclays became sponsors of the WSL you didn’t get much for winning that! The new TV money combined with Barclays sponsorship means that will start going up pretty quickly though.

So far, turning fully pro, signing established WSL players like Remi Allen, Sophie Howard & Kirstie Levell, the best Championship players in Natasha Flint, Sam Tierney and Sophie Barker as well as a load of good young players too, the plan is to continue that on promotion should we get it An investment off the pitch would be the move to Belvoir Drive.

We’d invest fairly heavily I’d say so I’d fancy our chances to establish ourselves, if they don’t drop this season then West Ham would be favourites to go down imo

WSL’s Red Button/BBC Online games are expected to move to BBC One/Two next season with the new tv rights deal (Sky mooted to get the pay TV games from BT) so you won’t even have to go to the Beebs website to see em
