Aston Villa Women 2022/23

[Risso]

It was incredible last year to see the journey of Ellen White from a 10 year old girl who wasn’t allowed to play with her team anymore to an England international Euros winner! In front of a full Wembley. What a journey!

Blimey, if she's a Euros winner aged 10, imagine how good she'll be as a teenager!

Hannah Hampton back in the latest England squad!

Rachel Daly also in obviously.

We've three players in the England squad for the last two pre-WC games, Daly (of course), Nobbs keeps her place, and there's a recall for Hannah Hampton, who I have just discovered is only 22. They play Brazil at Wembley on the 6th in the Finalissima, then Australia five days later at Brentford.

Rachel Corsie is having, what she calls a small surgery on her knee, hopefully this week and is a doubt for the semi.

Any idea what it is? I thought I saw said that it was something she picked up in the QF, but she finished the game.

Tbh, though, there's only one way we'll win the semi. Attack, attack, attackattackattack.

Me my wife and two of my girls have tickets for this, looking forward to it.

Does anyone know what the minute's silence before Sunday's game was for?

There was no announcement over the PA.

I was wondering this, too. And no end of internet searching has provided an answer. Still stumped.

In other news, ticket sales for this Sunday's game continue to ramp up apace. We've had to go from 1 additional to 2 and now 3 blocks available in the stand behind the goal. Fantastic stuff.

Yet they are only currently on sale to Women’s ST holders and Women’s claret members so it’s hard to see how sales can be exceptional yet! They go straight from that, to general sale online, at 5pm tomorrow with no priority to men’s team ST holders in between. General sale on the phones on Monday morning.

That's the criteria for the SF, amfy. I'm on about this Sunday's league game.

Ah I see. That’s surprising given that it’s the same game a week later in the cup with a better kick off time.
