Think there’s plenty of people on the women’s side that make these decisions anyway. Can’t imagine they’re all sitting around waiting for Scott Munn. Also not sure where the Donna Cullen stuff comes from as never really seen her presence around the women’s set up.

Seems to be quiet all around at the moment from the women’s side. No news on the manager, nothing on the whole raft of players whose contracts are up very soon, nothing on season ticket renewals… I know it’s still another 3 months until the season starts but it’s so quiet I’m beginning to wonder if we’re even still going to be playing football next season!

They did confirm the releases:
Although I understand that we're hoping to bring Mana Iwabuchi back. Assume if it's happening it'll be announced Friday.

Oh I know they did announce those, but there are a lot more (Zadorsky, Ale, Ayane, Graham, Summanen, Pearse) who are also out of contract that we’ve heard nothing about.

Gotcha. Although I think (THINK) that Zadorsky had an extra year as an option, which presumably has been taken up. Possibly the same with Summanen.
I know Rosella has her critics, but I really like her and hope we keep her too.

I don’t think Shelina does, I think that Summanen, Graham and Pearse do though.
I don’t mind keeping Ros but do think we should be looking to upgrade left wing if we can. I’d prefer her coming off the bench.
Nah, Zadorsky, Ale, Ayane don’t have options, the rest do. They’ve done the releases and non releases very differently this year, guess the manager aspect is part of it.
I hope she goes, but would be ok if stays as strictly bench cover. Going nowhere keeping the same line up.

Yeah that’s my thinking too, that it’s to do with the manager. The ones who already left were mostly not surprising (though I was sad Kerys and Esther left) due to playing time etc but these ones remaining will have a bigger impact if they leave.

Emily Ramsey released by Manchester United, 22 year old GK on England stand by, you'd think we'd be interested since we released ours.
There’s so many keepers available and slots tbh (think 6 of bottom 7 teams on the market). Imagine Ramsey is back to Everton though permanently. Just hope we land one of the better ones.

There have been a couple of signings since this thread was last active.
Grace Clinton seems like a perfect signing for us. A shame it's only a loan, but who knows maybe it could turn permanent if things work out. Man Utd have so many players after all.
And never heard of it tbh, but reading up on her welcome she sounds very useful.
Vilahamn's staff have also been named. Vicky Jepson back of course, in an interesting role. I like there is a lot of focus on her role about bringing players through from the academy. Plus, the fact that there is mention of working closely with the men's team is interesting.
I didn't know that Anton Blackwood had been working with the women as well, but it seems now he'll be full time with the women's team.
And Perry Suckling has now moved over to the women's team as well. His experience will surely be really valuable.

Recently left PSG and their fans didn't seem too happy about it , so that sounds really positive

Be interesting to see what the plan is. Obviously, last season Becky Spencer and Tinja split the games 50/50. With Tinja gone and Becky having had a great World Cup, I would have thought she'd have first choice in her head. But sounds like this new signing is very much coming in to start.
