A bit nitpicking there. City were a bit unlucky in the game. Coombes only played a few minutes
As I say, bad luck and if Park and Hemp had finished gilt edged chances we would have won

We should have had the game won before The Arse scored. I suspect any Arse, CFC or Haringay forward would have relished those chances. However, i think that was the best team performance this season. Had we played like that all season we would be challenging for a CL place for certain. Just a little disappointing that we conceded when we did, but The Arse always looked a real threat, particularly after we scored. And we still have our No4 choice in goal. Great pity she didn't keep a clean sheet, but the rest of the season looks a lot more promising than it did a month back.

We have looked a lot stronger since a few came back and we changed the keeper but still very wasteful - this game should have been over way before they scored. Taylor has his defenders far too negative with often the ball going back from good positions. They made better subs and once again the biggest worry for the team is the fact that Ellen White is so poor for us. Bunny and Stanway did a lot of the hard yards and when White & Coombs came on we conceded far too much space. Also Stokes looks a yard off the pace and has a very poor first touch.

Overall a chance to get close to CL qualification missed. No matter where we end up this year Taylor is not a good manager and they should change it for next season.

Too many of the team are programmed for a safety first in most situations. It is very frustrating to watch a team create a promising attack only for the ball to be sent back. We had more players than most recent games who appeared to relish the idea of driving the ball through, but we do waste promising situations by taking the foot off the pedal, often when it's not necessary.
 
The game should have been over.
Park and Hemp missing chances good strikers score from. Both tore Arsenal full backs apart time and time again but we just didn't convert the chances.
A sky panel full of Arsenal apologists reckon it was a fair result. Well I fucking don't, I thought we were robbed of a deserved 3 points and wonder what game they were watching as their keeper made save after save whilst our young kid in nets had next to fuck all to do.
The fucking whingeing from Arsenal manager and panel who rather than admit they don't know the rules choose to poor scorn on the ref for allowing the game to carry on whilst making their own interpretations of the rules up as they went to justify why it should have been disallowed was particularly laughable. The only mistake the ref made was booking Hempo for being badly fouled, then getting up and being shoulder barged by the same cunty Arsenal player.
The Derby return might be a bit tasty this year. All to play for anyway for the ladies and we're starting to show form now we have some players back. Ellie soon hopefully!

I see we've scored another controversial goal according to the BBC. I thought that when a ball hits the referee play is only stopped if posession passes to the other team. It didn't, so where's the contoversy?

That's what I thought, but, hey, this is The Arse, and we should all be playing the game according to the Islingtonian Laws of the Game, or whichever team turns up. I thought the ref, for once, had a decent game, apart from the shit the Arse players were heaping on her after we scored and before they kicked off! Can't understand why at least three of 'em were not booked. Compare the behaviour of our girls when they scored!
