  1. Need a piss at half time but there's a massive queue for the gents? Nee worries, just pop in the pitch-side pool I mean who has ever wanted to go swimming in a football stadium.
  2. CB, RW, LB. Getting 2 out of 3 of those with real quality would make a massive difference next year.
  3. All the booing etc seemed jovial and very much in jest around me. Only surprise was how many fans left as soon as the final whistle went, rather than stay and applaud the players. Despite their poor performance yesterday, you'd think that's the least they deserve after getting to a cup final in the first place.
  4. Just got back and despite the result, it definitely made me want to make the effort to see the lasses again. Kenilworth Road was, erm, interesting? Loved visiting it personally, but it was like travelling back in time to what (I assume) football grounds were like during the 80s. Such a bizarre choice for a women's cup final. When your trying to grow the game, why would you chose a ground that felt so old fashioned in such a dreadful town. On a weekend where their was planned engineering works between it and London too. Can't imagine its the sort of place that makes new fans to the sport want to keep coming. Shame about the performance, felt like we didn't deal with their physicality and pressure on the ball at all and never controlled possession. Silver lining for me was Cataldo, watching the streams the past few months, I wasn't convinced she offered us more than we already had. However, today I thought she was great. Composed at the back and in possession, constantly driving the ball forward effectively. She has won me over today.
  5. That was the idea, but apparently not
  6. First ever NUWFC game for me today, actually my first ever women's football match. Also my first NUFC game since Rafa left. Lovely to be back supporting a team in black in white in person. Howay the lasses!
  7. Not really, they were just formed when Basildon AFC joined Hashtag United. Hashtag United are a bit odd in that their various teams are based all over south Essex really. There is a training ground on the outskirts of Basildon that is linked to Hashtag United but I think that is just the youth squads.
  8. You just know Man City are getting Coventry in the next round.
  9. That second goal has proper killed us, look so much more fragile.
  10. Lascelles with time and space.... lumps it straight to a Man City player.
