Bought tickets for said game to get the kids used to the stadium .. realised I've booked in 119 which is safe standing usually isn't it? Anyone think it'll be full of people standing in this game or ok for them to sit in there?

Very different crowd for WSL matches, even in the main stadium. I doubt everyone will be standing.
 
don't worry there will be plenty of empty seats if you want to move
 
My SC is in 119
Yes we all stand normally.
You'd be better off in 219 tbh where everyone sits its a couple of quid dearer for an adult and £4 for kids.
I'll probably go to this but my seats gone already. Hospitality is reasonable for women's games, might have a look at that or elsewhere in SS1, might have to be sharpish though.
 
Ragettes have played most of the also rans in the league, soon as they faced anyone decent they get humped.
At least that stops the BBC pundits from rubbing one out talking about their clean sheet record.
Nearly 40K sold for the Derby at the Etihad now with a month of sales left. Let's hope we can hump them as well. Way to go yet but we might sell it out to break the attendance record set in the Spurs stadium for the girls NLD of 47K.

Rags definitely going to start favourites, for good reasons too they are better than us.

I know some players have changed, but I go back to the Cup game last year where we came back to win 3-1 with a brilliant second half. They couldn't get the ball off us and their manager just put it down to lack of fight - well, when it comes down to it, we're just better than them.

That was last year though. We gave them about a 10 point advantage due to injuries and ended up above them.

I still say we're better than them if we can impose our game. However, they are a more settled side and must be full of confidence. I worry about our defence a bit, but we've got a decent chance. A win would really set us up for the rest of the season, but I fancy 2-2 maybe.
 
The ragettes are extremely physical so that's where we'll need to be ready. Against Arsenal they got away with a lot of questionable tackles that broke up attacks and bordered on assault.

I like that the women's game is physical and the refs don't blow up for everything. However, teams like United will take advantage of that to disrupt better sides.

If we can cope with that, protect the ball and limit the service to Russo we should win.
 
Just seen that Beth Mead did her ACL. Looking at the clip it does appear that the ragette had no intention of playing the ball and was just going to shove Beth Mead over but missed badly due to being shit. Like the men's team full of hype, over performing and diving ands cheating their way to wins

As well as being truly ugly ****, Blundell is a dirty fucker who strangely enough doesn't seem to get many cards.
