Yep!

This is one of those concepts that’s taken for granted in men’s football here, but is never accepted for women’s football,

Seriously, imagine working a part time job and your boss asks you to double your productivity without providing extra pay or hours to do that.

It is a truth, universally acknowledged that if a club uses the phrase “one club” in its marketing, it’s not really.

WSL Results

Chelsea have completed an undefeated league season!

Chelsea 1-0 Liverpool
Arsenal 4-3 Manchester United
Aston Villa 3-1 Brighton & Hove Albion
Everton 1-1 Tottenham
Leicester City 4-2 West Ham United
Manchester City 5-2 Crystal Palace

 

What’s The Point Of This?

WSL 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The top 2 divisions of English football have had a rebrand with the Championship being renamed as WSL2!

The Championship name has been in place since the 2018/19 season & it will now revert back to the original WSL2

The move has generally not gone down positively amongst fans

I… what? I don’t know whether to be offended or inspired. Offendedly inspired? Inspirationally offended?
