Is it free for season ticket holders ?

Yep, if your a Women's Season Ticket holder. 

Conti Cup v Man City now moved to Ashton Gate due to high demand.

It's good that they have an alternative date in mind. Hopefully discussions will have taken place between AG and the organisers 

The organisers have known pre Xmas re potential move as police would not sanction both events on same day.

Out of interest does anyone know what the capacity is at the HPC?

The other question is what will happen if the women win the league as the HPC won't meet the criteria for the WSL

I think there are around 550 seats with standing allowed behind the seats and some limited standing at pitchside. I'd guess 1200 max. Not sure re WSL as pretty sure capacity is better than the SGS where we played when last there.

Big game on Sunday against London City 

Hopefully standing room only at the HPC.

First half, City well on top 1-0 up and doing all the attacking. Could have been more, Hayles in particular was  clean through, but goalkeeper saved. Second half complete contrast. City flat as a pancake and could have no complaints at going behind. Then the late drama. Got away with one today. Good crowd today including some boisterous Germans.

That would just seem completely baffling to me if true, just looking at the stands it seems as if there’s barely a difference in gradient between the two. You only have to look at Dortmund’s yellow wall, one of the steepest stands in Europe, who manage 25,000 in there without any issues whatsoever. 

Might be the narrow rows in the Dolman. It's a lot tighter fit in there than the newly developed stands 

Gracie Pearse signed on loan from Spurs until end of season. Central defender. Presumably one more to come in according to Lauren's interview.

The same channel where messi will be heading come the end of the season,and still 3 years younger 

Can I just buy the head to head. Not sure I want the drudgery of a dusty Tuesday night in Riyadh every week

Still a star. What channel do I need for Saudi League football?

I remember a emergency retreat from visiting relatives in order to beat the snow home. Would have been 6 at the time.

Trust the women have a good holiday cause it's going to be a hectic January. 

Sure I read a few days ago that the European clubs association had told him to do one,  so there's probably a battle to be fought yet.

Match postponed. Presumably now back to the dripping pan at some point. Does this take priority over our planned visit in January. 

Youth team game scheduled for tonight at HPC postponed due to frozen pitch. Will be a challenge to get pitch playable for tomorrow.

I'm old enough to remember cars that had these instead of flashing light indicators

Think they were called trafficators.

And wing mirrors out near the front of the car. A right pain to adjust.

What was Symes’s free-kick like?

Top corner (or thereabouts). Nicely taken.

Dominant performance by City. Southampton never in it. Back to our best.

I have Netflix and Amazon Prime, yet find myself watching less and less. The absence of a fixed broadcast time has meant much watch has turned into might watch. If regular TV disappeared today, I'd just watch less. 

As it's pantomime season, oh no they're not.

So he can claim his appearance money? I'm sure photo ops must be written into the TV coverage contract somewhere. 

Always looks like Billy no mates. Is it a spec that the stadiums should have a certain capacity plus one big armchair 

Game over, Portugal have brought on the reserves

And the final pass for Spain will be the boarding pass

@old_eastender we did sign a creative midfielder this summer in Emily Syme. I can't comment on today's game until I see the highlights (which would be out tomorrow), but it's a bit worrying when there hasn't been a win since the Charlton game at the end of October 

The problem today was that Palmer had a poor game and we lacked any muscle in midfield leaving Syme on her own. At the start of the season, we were winning the 50/50s. Not so much today. Felt a bit lightweight with the wind and rain not helping.

Frustrating performance today. Conceded when well on top. Too many loose balls today conceding possession and a real struggle in central midfield. Woman of the match, Fran Bentley, says it all.
