Fran Kirby has announced that she's leaving Chelsea at the end of the season after ten years with them
Making tomorrow at Kingsmeadow even more emotional for the home fans. Emma Hayes' last home game, Maren Mjelde's last home game (who herself announced she was leaving Chelsea after seven years), and now this.
Will be interesting to see where she goes next. Definitely hasn't announced any plans to retire... -
Based on this graphic, it looks like City will be in the yellow kit for tomorrow night...

Just noticed 5 or 600 points on my account, few all to spend them on though!
That's a massive difference of 595 points. Which is it?

Not sure if people noticed but on the pages regarding season ticket renewals (especially in the FAQs), it talks about
"The My City Rewards loyalty scheme will be replaced for the 2024/25 season with a retail discount offering for all Season Ticket holders. Further details will be revealed in due course"

I was going to original date but can't make this one sadly. I hope some pertinent questions are asked.
Tonight's fans forum is the first women's one that has sold out, so I expect many will have questions...

For those going to the fans forum tomorrow (see you there!), the club have finally confirmed that supporters can park on side for free, but need to scan a QR code to validate their parking. Much like those that park to travel on coach travel for the men's away games

I hope the link above works. A interesting reading I thought. Especially the last couple of paragraphs.
This article is news to me (no pun intended!)
Am aware that this is third WSL relegation for the team, but I wasn't aware that City have been the most-relegated team in WSL history.
I noticed a few omissions: Kaylan Marckese only returned back to Arsenal because of her ACL injury, and actually there have been five different goalkeepers that made WSL appearances (Benedicte Haaland who was on a short term deal came on as a sub in one game)
Also noticed that the writer referred to the team as Bristol City, City, and Bristol all in the same article. Err... -
Posted in this thread, but Gavin Marshall will be on Sound of the City tonight (alongside Jon Lansdown)...

See the post match section here. John Galley was presented with the first ever club Legacy cap
https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/whats-on-rotherham-united-h/
(But I agree, there should have been more announcements on the day)
Myself & @Blagdon Mike (representing the SC&T board) went pitchside after the full time whistle, and waited for the presentations to take place.
President Marina Dolman & honorary vice president Doug Harman presented each winners with the respective glassware (and some of these photos have already appeared online).
Myself & Mike had the traditional trophy & shield, for which we had photos with the winners - these photos will be sent to us & an article of all award winners/photos will go up on the SC&T website & social media once all awards are presented (the women's awards are taking place on their last home game on May 18th)
The Men's Golden Boot award will be announced/presented sometime after the Stoke game as there is currently no clear winner (especially in case another player could catch up)
Photos now here

Will the team get parachute payments?
That's not a thing in the women's game.
Otherwise, you'd have had the likes of previously relegated sides like Reading & Birmingham City be back in the WSL already

Existing season ticket holders have until Monday May 20th to renew their seat.

For those of you with greater knowledge, do you see Lauren Smith as being the right coach to lead next seasons campaign?
I feel that (speaking purely as a fan here, not as a SC&T board member) Lauren has only been able to work with what resources she's been given.
I listened to the Gavin Marshall interview on the Forever Bristol City podcast where he admitted that the team have the smallest budget in the WSL.
I believe there has been more investment than last time in the WSL, but still not enough compared to all the other teams that have affiliations with Premier League clubs.
Overall, the performances have been a lot better for most games this season, despite the outcome. I would remember when Tanya Oxtoby was in charge and the team would sometimes be 3-0 or 4-0 down within 20/30 minutes. But tonight I was so impressed that we kept Man City to a 0-0 at half time.
Lauren's already proven her success in the Championship, but unfortunately only one team goes up to the WSL. And in this season, there was pretty much a five-horse race between Crystal Palace (eventual champions), Sunderland, Charlton Athletic, Southampton & Birmingham City. And with the likes of Newcastle & Portsmouth coming up to the Championship, it will be interesting.
Also depends on who stays & who goes over the summer (as well as who comes in).
The Fans Forum is happening this Wednesday evening at the SC&T Bar so fans have the opportunity to ask Lauren & Gavin themselves- 1

Crystal Palace effectively promoted to WSL. They did announce project to achieve such one year ago (recruited our general manager as part of that process). Will be interesting to see how they fare. Assuming Leicester promotion, WSL will be entirely Premier League affiliated. Meanwhile minnows Lewes & Watford relegated from Championship replaced by Newcastle and Portsmouth. Will a much tougher league than 2 season ago. Will need a big reset by City to compete.
Promotion confirmed for Crystal Palace - first time in the WSL. Drew 0-0 with Sunderland at Selhurst Park, but it was enough for them to secure the Championship title.
And yep, it will be all teams affiliated with PL sides after Leicester City's promotion was confirmed... -

We were needing a win anyway, but an extra point may well be of no importance.
Well, here goes the last game of the season. A season of what has to be seen as a miserable time at Ashton Gate. No points (with no sign of any today!) and a real disappointment all round. Of course, we didn't expect to be fighting for the title in our first season, but to be cut well and truly adrift has been a painful lesson.
However, we also should see our time as one to build on, even if it means those lessons are applied for a spell in the Championship. Several players have made their mark and the team has made some improvements in the approach. I'm not sure of the average age of the side but it must be one of the lower in the WSL. I hope we can maintain a significant presence and that those young players will stay here to carry on the dream. Perhaps we can attract some better players for the start of next season too. Hopefully.

There's two more games left to play after tonight, or are you talking about the last game you are attending this season?

West Ham just got a 95th minute equaliser against Aston Villa, FT 1-1
West Ham now on 14 points; gap between them & City now extended to eight points.
City need to win against Man City tonight now to avoid relegation...
