Women’s FA Cup defeat
#1
The women’s team lost 7-0 to Man U on Saturday. Up until the 77th minute they were only losing 1-0 but fitness clearly set in as they were overrun by a team made up of internationals.

BBC reported it in their usual style of glorifying Man U and hardly mentioning West Brom they didn’t even get a ‘plucky’ which is the usual go to phrase. What really annoyed me however was the report couldn’t even be bothered to put the Albion crest up adjacent to the scoreline substituting it with a grey shield as though we weren’t important enough to bother with.

I hadn't noticed that about the shield. That's a disgrace.
I thought the women did brilliantly to hang in so close until the last quarter of an hour against full-timers with a load of internationals. A shame they conceded so many at the end but legs evidently went.
As a comparison, Rangers put 14 past Queens Park in the Scots WPL.
I hope the team can take pride in what went well, and bounce straight back.
