Good luck to the women's team this season - despite the very guarded noises coming out of the club I suspect with the team we have assembled we may have a very good season.

Got this posted to my iphone yesterday.
edit: Hope Solo is a blue. Now all we need is Tobin Heath to give us a leg-up with UNC.

It's pretty cringeworthy the way the BBC and now City are try to whip up support for women's football despite it having no merit to warrant media coverage & strong public interest. I have absolutely no problem with City having a women's team but it shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as the men's.

I don't see at as cringeworthy at all. I'm a lot more interested in whether MCWFC does well in the women's league than I am about the mens league in Scotland.

Girls and women's football has been for some years the fastest growing game in the UK in terms of participation numbers. I can't see why that doesn't warrant general media interest and I can't see why City, having made the decision to invest in women's football, should do anything other than publicise it with gusto.

Before London 2012, the paralympics were a long way down the pecking order as well. They still are, but paralympic sports have come on in leaps and bounds (sorry, couldn't resist it). Times change. perceptions change.<br /><br />-- Thu Mar 27, 2014 11:56 am --<br /><br />
