    Good to see Newsham and N'Dow here just went past me to go down pitch side and give support. She's in a full leg brace

    Is it Carla Humphrey who's been on Maternity Leave?

    Even though she's clearly shattered I don't know that I would have taken Hutton off. Not many players left on the pitch who can provide a moment of magic for us
    Is Debbie McGee on the bench?

    It's not pretty for the most part of it. 

    Having watched the under 18s game last week, they are streets ahead of this team, on performance and quality. 

    Not comparing men's to women's football, simply the quality of the play on the pitch. 

    I have no idea on the quality of women's super league 2, but if this team was in a promotion spot all season until the last day, it can't be that high a standard or skill or fitness. 

    That said, if they can get over the line in the next 30 minutes, then the owners have a choice on whether to invest in the squad. Not being able to beat a side that has won 2 (TWO) games in the entire season, and they were many months ago, would be very disappointing!

    Mason overhits the cross but it's flight means it dropped just wide over the keepers head

    Ooh, keeper had no idea where that was

    I’m surprised by the terrible standard if our players. It seems to me that we get by on hard graft and determination, which is commendable, but I think several of Leicester’s players look a class above, the best of whom is Neville.

    That's not how it works though, the gulf between the 2 leagues is huge, and only getting bigger.

    Yes you are and you shouldn’t.
    If you have no idea on the quality of WSL2 why are you even trying to compare?

    It was . Just ,  but I thought the ball crossed the line. Only moment of quality in two hours of drudgery

    I don't think the people popping into this thread for the first time telling us how unimpressed they are are too helpful today. It's 10,000 degrees out there, this is a squad that has had next to no investment and the idea that they're still in this game against a team with experienced international players is insane. Support or, with the exact right amount of respect, bugger off until tomorrow

    Wonder strike hits the bar and goal line then the stranded keeper watches on as a Charlton player nods it past her, only to have been ruled offside.

    Lobato played a big role in the buildup too.
