Good results for us,but these blank Saturdays are so depressing.
Rearranged fixtures for cold Tuesday nights not good.
But decent ladies game on BBC today.
Arsenal outclassed spurs,who have slow reacting defenders and goalie.
28k at spurs but they only get a trickle when at Brisbane road

Nice that we are still outside the relegation zone even though we haven’t played, but winning at Stevenage should start to put some daylight between us and the bottom four, which is what I really want to see.

Arsenal outclassed spurs,who have slow reacting defenders and goalie. 28k at spurs but they only get a trickle when at Brisbane road I also watched the Spurs vs Arsenal game and the gunners are playing so much better and continued their resurgence under interim boss Renee Slegers with a comfortable win at Tottenham in the north London derby. The in-form Gunners have now won five and drawn one in all competitions since the Dutchwoman took charge following Jonas Eidevall's resignation last month.
I also watched the Chelsea vs Manchester City game which Chelsea won 2-0. The Chelsea centre forward Mayra Ramirez was far too quick and strong for the city defenders and scored a very good opening goal for Chelsea. Manchester City were without England international Lauren Hemp because of a knee injury and really missed her creativity as striker Khadija Shaw was largely kept quiet.
The ACL curse strikes again.Chelsea defender Kadeisha Buchanan suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) knee injury that will require surgery, manager Sonia Bompastor said.
The 29-year-old last played for Chelsea in their Women’s Super League victory over Liverpool on Nov. 10, leaving the game in the first half.
Bompastor announced the news after the team’s 2-0 win over Manchester City on Saturday evening. “I have sad news to share with you. We found out the results this morning but she did her ACL after the Liverpool game,” Bompastor told reporters. The Canada centre-back joins a growing list of female WSL players already sidelined with torn ACLs, including Chelsea teammates Mia Fishel, Sophie Ingle, Jorja Fox and Sam Kerr.
Liverpool’s Sofie Lundgaard, and Everton’s Inma Gabarro and Aurora Galli are also expected to be lost for the season in an issue that continues to plague the women’s game.

Hope Renee Slegers gets the Arsenal job full time.she has given a lovely flow to their football.
Spurs couldn't cope with it.
Sad to hear about these ACL's.
Seems lady players are susceptible to this injury more than men.

Seems lady players are susceptible to this injury more than men. Awful injury and I busted the ACL in my right knee when playing football when I was around 21 years old and playing so well at that time but no operations for it back in around 1970 so that was me finished playing football although I did try to play but the knee kept giving way. I later had a couple of operations on it with no real success. the in March this year I had a knee replacement operation on that same right knee. Still a bit stiff and painful but not as bad as before the operation where I was reduced to getting around on crutches for around 6 months before the operation. |

There's a whole science looking at female ACL injuries. There's little accepted reasoning for or the huge statistical instances but theories abound and boot makers are marketing "women's boots" with zero evidence they make any difference.
The main thrust of credible research concerns the evolution of human females where those with wide hips are much more successful at childbirth so their offspring proliferate and evolution does the rest.
A wide hips/pelvis mean that the line between ankle to hip joint is not a straight line, the knee joint has to accept angled stresses whereas males don't suffer the same problem. Fallen arches produce a similar knee mis-alignment.
I'm a sad man 🤔

Hormones (relaxin) are the cause and without hormone therapy, ACLs will continue to be a problem for women. The hip part may also be part of the story. Women are not designed for many forms of contact sport to the level that is required by today's professional standards. |
