    No sign as yet of tickets for the trip to Brighton on 4 October going on sale. Brighton have had home tickets on sale for ages and their website confirms away tickets should be available from Charlton. It looks like we're getting block E1I, right in the far south corner of the East stand. Not the best of views, but it's a day out and the men aren't playing so I assume there will be a few takers.
    No details for how to buy tickets for the Brighton away Subway Players Cup game on Wednesday. Presumably the WSL1 requirement for away tickets to be sold on the club site doesn't apply.

    The Brighton website is selling tickets in block G, which is colour-coded as away seating in the layout plan. Link here. It's a digital ticket to be saved into a Google or Apple wallet on your phone.

    Red cards received in the League Cup count in the league right? Not asking for any particular reason..

    Though actually, having said that, does this count as one of Neville's suspended matches?

    Club preview said Neville was suspended

    Odd that some games are on YouTube and some, including ours, aren’t 
  • About 30 of us in the away section plus probably a few in the home seats.

    Christ, Sheff Utd are 9-0 down against Man Utd. The gap really is huge now, we're not doing so badly
  • Both keepers playing in pale shorts, yellow for them, greenish white for us. Looks odd now I've got used to the dark colours.

    Glad our game not being streamed, by the score it looks like just the same old rubbish from us.
  • That wasn't as bad as the scoreline. A couple of shots on target, albeit neither of them really testing the keeper. The defence played pretty well most of the time, which they had to given how little of the ball we had. We were in the game for the first half.

    Having said all which, this is going to be a long hard season and without a striker of the quality of Tvedten who scored their first two and played the assist for the fourth we're going to finish 14th by quite a distance.

    What a depressing start to the season. The players and manager are like rabbits in the headlights.

    Saturday at 1.30pm against Man City will be fun!

    Stats say: 17 shots to 3, 10 on target to 2, and they had 73% possession. 

    Their striker Tvedten who you said is quality, signed for them in January and last night was her first goals for the club. Clearly we make anyone look decent.

    That said Brighton are no mugs, as they reached the FA Cup final last season.

    Hard to judge Koivunen as I don't think she could have done much about the goals, but one impression I got was that she was reluctant to come far off her line to field crosses or long through balls. Her kicking did look a little better than Whitehouse's.

    Having seen Cissokho play for the first time, it looks like every game is going to be An Experience. She mixed the ridiculous (one pathetic clearance in the first half, one underhit backpass early in the second half) with the slightly less ridiculous and showed some good recovery pace on occasion.

    The vaguely threatening moments we had came down the left, with Korhonen and Azzaro linking up well. It didn't translate into any genuine chances though, and we're going to be reliant on Hutton or someone else pulling a rabbit out of the hat for the goals we score this season. We have no physical presence at all up front, so when we get the ball forward it's easy for opposition defenders to deal with.

    Something needs to be done about social media and reports for the website.

     “It was a first league start of the season for Koivunen”. It was a cup game.

    Apparently Crawley is a seaside town.
