Tomorrow we host Crystal Palace Ladies whilst on Wednesday night, Manchester United visit Farley Way Stadium. Tickets for both games are available on the gate priced at £5 for adults and £2.50 for Concessions. Or you can watch the games live.? Went down yesterday, it was a good match especially coming from two goals behind and looked like we were going on to win it, unfortunately palace snatched it. My lad and daughter went on the pitch at the end to get some autographs, they stood shyly at the side and one of the players told them to come on and helped them out. Beer sat in the stand, sunshine, hot dogs, good footy and I managed to somehow do a likely lads and avoid the City result and watched that when I got home. Hopefully down for the man u game this Wednesday.
ChiefFox Posted 13 February 2019 Posted 13 February 2019 A big game tonight for Leicester City Women! it would be great to have a big crowd behind the Foxes!
CosbehFox Posted 13 February 2019 Author Posted 13 February 2019 Shame the Yanited game isn't next week when half-term is here.

Its a rearranged fixture so you're right they are missing a trick there . Chuck a load of tickets as junior teams and they could be getting a big crowd .
turkish14 Posted 13 February 2019 Posted 13 February 2019 Lost 0:7 v Manchester United ladies. Looking like Man Utd and spurs to go up this year. after a decent start to the season, looks like the ladies team are faltering a bit.
Vlad the Fox Posted 14 February 2019 Posted 14 February 2019 Ouch!!! Decent crowd there tonight, individual errors cost us though.

Farrington fox Posted 19 June 2019 Posted 19 June 2019 Haven’t followed Women’s football at all. But just watching Eng v Japan. Have to say it’s come on in leaps and bounds, have we got anyone in the England squad? The best thing is there’s no cheating, diving, feigning injury or arguing with referees, they just get on with!

No, but we have: 1 X England U17 - Lucy Johnson 1 X England U18 - Libby Smith 1 X Scotland U19 - Rachel Brown Plus have signed 3 England U17/18 players this summer with at least one more on the way ?

Also a few even younger navigating their way through the England development camps. The future is bright.
LCFC1996 Posted 24 June 2019 Posted 24 June 2019 "England Under 17 squad in 2018 featured five of the current Leicester City squad with Paige Bailey-Gayle playing alongside Libby Smith, Simran Jhamat, Annabel Blanchard and Aimee Everett."

I teach a number of girls who play in the French First division so I was wondering how much do the ladies (or perhaps I should say girls looking at the signings) get paid to play for the team? What is the general salary in the first and second divisions? Is there a site about the finances of Women's football (team costs/grounds etc...) in the UK? Thanks for any help.

The girls that got them promoted got around £200 a month last season (first season in the championship) However the new signings got paid ‘significantly more’ and even had expensive house rent covered if they were moving from other areas of the country. This has upset a lot of the girls who helped get the side where it is now.

I guess all of the girls work jobs alongside their football in England. Makes the clamour from the WC stars about equality of pay a little insulting to the league players I guess. Do you think the world cup and the added exposure of the moment will change things greatly for teams like yours. Here in France there is a strange disparity between a couple of clubs and the others. Lyon are paying obscene amounts whilst teams at the other end are at best semi-pro. Some of my girls (who are of France u 19 level) were asking about the English league for playing and improving their English but I reckon it's not ready for them yet. At their club they they come to the university for Sports science bachelor in the morning and train every afternoon.

I’ve got to be honest with you I don’t know a great deal about women’s football, I just keep an eye on this topic as a mates daughter plays for them. (Hence why I know a little about what they’re paid) I think it’s the first year the men’s side have part funded them but I don’t think it’s a great deal and playing their games at Quorn costs them a big part of the budget. Inevitably the more the women’s game grows over here the more money they will make but women at clubs like Leicester most definitely do not make a living out of it.
CosbehFox Posted 27 June 2019 Author Posted 27 June 2019 Ellie White, striker for England was quoted in the press recently saying her wages are £35k a year. So comfortable for a decent life but nothing major.
