Either that game will take place at Hayes Lane, and/or be moved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. I haven't seen the full game back on FA Player, highlights are below. Will be interesting to see if/what changes are made against Southampton this Sunday in the FA Cup...

Erithacus Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 Pity. Was one of the early top players at a time when the women's game barely had a pulse. Wand of a right foot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miser Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 Dominant performance by City. Southampton never in it. Back to our best. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erithacus Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 A foggy and chilly HPC but no problem for the girls. A solid performance all round, with increasing dominance in the second half, resulting in the win and into the hat for the next draw. Without Ffion Morgan to open up the wing, there was a chance to move the ball through other channels; Emma Symes was able to power through the middle on several occasions. Meanwhile the defence was lead by Layzell and kept the visitors to a few sporadic shots; Bentley did what was needed when needed. Shania Hayles pounced first on a loose ball at the back to score the first and Symes wafted a twenty-yarder into the top corner Good to see Brook Aspin doing some drills with the squad too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erithacus Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 Free kick, quite central outside the 'D'. Symes hit it into the top right corner, not a thunderbolt but beautifully flighted shot - a bit like Rashford's the other night against Wales. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southampton had a lot of players missing due to a flu bug that's apparently gone round the team, according to a Saints supporter I know who was informed by someone from that club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erithacus Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 That'll be three home games on the spin, then: Coventry, London City and Oxford in the Cup. Busy month for the girls - hope the injuries don't mount. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should City get through (they're currently second in the group), that'll be an extra time. I remember last January where the home game against Coventry was postponed due to that club's situation, and then there was a bad form of run after losing to Man City in the Conti Cup (probably expected) & Southampton a few days later in the FA Cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This fixture has now been reversed due to the frozen pitch at Lewes.(Must have been that blooming dripping pan all this time!).
