Hi all, I'm looking for some help from fans of LCWFC.
I'm a publisher and writer, currently preparing an illustrated fan yearbook covering the leading women's teams in the UK. It's designed to introduce new supporters to their local club, give a bit of background on the matchday experience, fan culture and history. I want to give a really positive write-up to every team featured, and be as representative as possible of existing supporters' views and perspectives. I've had a pretty good response from fans of most WSL teams, but as yet I haven't had anything from Leicester fans.
I would be so grateful if two or three of you would be willing to take a few minutes to complete this online questionnaire (and maybe ask two or three match-going family or friends if they would too):

There will be a namecheck in the book for everyone who responds, and the first five from every team will get a free copy of the book when it's published.
By the way, specific to Leicester I'd really like to know a little bit more about the formation of the team in 2004 - who were the main people responsible for it, and any players and moments of particular note from the first decade or so. I've found details a bit sketchy through my research so far, so if any of you have been supporting the women from the early days and would be willing to share some of your memories, I'd love to hear from you - either through discussion here or drop me an email at

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer,
David Moloney
