And we have been drawn against Man City at home in the next round of the FA Cup. This will be the 4th time we've played them, 7 -0, 2 - 0, 1 - 0...It's our time to shine COYSW!!

They've definitely become the bogey team.

At least we're home and the results have got 'better' each time we've played them...

It's not a bogey team, they're just much better than us.
Yes, that's absolutely true. However, in this season's games whilst you start with that slim little bit of hope against the better teams with City they seem to snuff that hope so quickly and completely it feels like they are becoming a bogey team; and getting them in the Cup just days after the last turning over feels ominously prophetic. But heck, I'll tune in with optimism and hope again...

As I saw someone on Twitter say yesterday... I feel like I've seen Chloe Kelly more than I've seen my family this year 😂

At home to Aston Villa today, Kickoff 2 pm - Brisbane Rd. Tickets available on the gate & free to watch on FA Player.

It's been lashing down all night here in East London, it's finally clearing now & looks promisingly bright with a chance of sun for kickoff.
An hour ago I was beginning to hope for a postponement.

Good news, Ash Neville & Drew Spence are fit and available for the Arsenal game.
That's the complete squad, I think.

Good game so far, the Woolwich are putting on the pressure and it's astonishing how they manage to get so many players around the ball, or being available, really is.

Refs a homer, but didn't I read this is sold out? Lot of empty seats for a sold out game.

It's nice that we can actually give them a proper game now, rather than all out defense to stop double figures.

I read it was a sell out too. Perhaps there’s some sort of rule or law which lowers the permitted attendance. Or they lie :D

either way it’s an impressive turn out

Sold out does not mean everyone turns up. Just that all tickets were sold. They had a decent turn out v United didn't they? At least women's football is increasing in popularity and competitiveness.

I think EAs inclusion of women players in this years Ultimate team has brought more attention to the game. Before this year I wouldn’t have been able to name 1 player, now I know most of them even the scum players.
