Up to you, but football is football, it's all the same game, whether it's Premier League, Women's Championship, Conference, pub team, under-12s or some six-year olds playing their first ever 4-a-side. And I've seen some technically awful kids grassroots matches that I've enjoyed far more than some PL ones. Shame you feel the way you do, you're missing out.

It's the same game but different. What people need to get away from, is comparing it to the mens game. Other than the rules and the aims of the game, its a different entity, and should be judged on its own merits. We don't go to a mens  game on the park and expect to see the quality that we see in the professional game, and yet some seem to want to put the women's game up against the mens game and compare, and that it is unfair.  Much like non league football, the women's game can be enjoyed for the game it is, if you accept it for what it is, and I mean that in a positive way.

Men's game is different from the women's game. It always will be. It's not sexism and if people of all sexes and gender like watching or playing the women's game then great, but you can't compare the two as they are on different levels of physicality and especially technicality.

...not sure why you are using the word their, surely "us", "we" or "our"!!!

Why? Personally I support Leicester City men and love women's football, but I don't support Leicester City women.

I thought we were unlucky in the end. Started reasonably well but let our heads drop after they scored and looked like we lacked belief. Once we scored though it seemed to come flooding back and we were aggressive going forward and get physical with them and caused a few scary moments in their box. Thought Jones and Whelan were good and O’Brian was a real handful. I’ve seen enough to believe the girls have more about them this season than last.

First womens football game, thought they started of brightly enough. I thought thye lost their way for a bit after the first goal and spurs looked the more comfortable on the ball with the second goal before half time was a blow.

They gave it a good go in the second half and I think unlucky not to get a draw.

A bit off tangent but wondering if anyone knows of any car parking close ( ish) to the ground on WSL match days please?

Got a new season ticket and saw the official car parks close to the ground last week- is a pass required for these? 
TIA!

...did not get to find out about the line up for the last game!!!

  I managed to get to watch most of the game, but why was Levell in goal. She is a terrible Keeper and a liability with the ball at her feet. Her injury previously was a blessing for Lambourn who is a much better Keeper. 

  Playing with a back three, we seem to have a set up where Howard is on the right but should be central Tierney who is central, should be on the right and Plumptre needs to come out of the backline. 

  We either seek to play her in central midfield or screening the backline.  She is very good with the ball on the ground,  very purposeful and can instigate an attack. In defense however it is like watching Bambi on ice, wild swings at the ball , very awkward  with anything that bounces. I think it might be worth swapping her for Molly Pike (she is very  ineffective) and see if this strengthens us and get us playing quicker.

  Tash Flint needs to know that her role is to keep the ball and link up with the support,  she seems unfit and for someone of her size, weak when challenged. I have seen her play and she is intelligent enough when she does get involved, she needs clearer instructions of what her role is. She seems to think she needs to be attacking the defence on her own.

  This was not too bad a start to the season, the same issues are there, we never seem to create enough.

You can park at the ground, it’s £5 but has to be booked online beforehand on lcfc.com. Otherwise park at the local hero just up the road and put your reg in on the iPad at the end of the bar for 4 hours free parking. You’re expected to by a drink for a couple of quid, I get my kids a bottle of coke to take in.

Missy Goodwin looks to be really talented with the ball at her feet, I've watched YT clips etc and been impressed. I think that as she learns other aspects of the game, she could become a class player.

I think Lambourne must be injured as she wasn't even on the bench against Spurs. SportsMole's preview of the Villa game says she is 'unavailable'. Can't seem to find any info more detailed than that.

O’Brien missed a couple of big chances, 1st was from a cut back unmarked, second from the edge of the box, needs to work the keeper at least but she looks lively

We really don't have a player who creative or has any pace.

 

Whoever is playing upfront is so isolated, in this system, by the time support arrives we have lost the ball. 

 

Be surprised if we get into double figures for goals scored.
