Aston Villa Women 2023/24

[Lastfootstamper]

Our new goalkeeper registering another clean sheet as Netherlands progress to the quarterfinals with a 2-0 win over South Africa. She had quite a bit to do for a change, drawing praise from the coach for keeping them in the game in the first half.
Next up, a big test in the small hours of Friday morning: Spain.

Brilliant news, she was fantastic last season and is Scottish, which makes it even better.

[Lastfootstamper]

That's brilliant news.

That's brilliant news.

Definitely, was what I was hoping for, she was my favourite player last season.

Should have been the first pre-season friendly today at Bodymoor Heath against Southampton. Can’t find any info about it anywhere. Does anyone have any idea how we got on ?

Lost 1-2. There's a minimal report on the website. Lucy Parker scored inside 4 minutes on her debut.

Thanks Lastfootstamper. I did notice the website’s brief description of the game a few hours later. Away at Spurs this Saturday. Behind closed doors again.

Good. Footballing-wise, we've other options and I think we'll see different systems so she's not going to be an uncontested starter. But for the growth of the game and putting Villa front and centre in the modern game's online landscape, she's massive.

And she likes a Marmite sandwich.

This popped up on my YouTube homepage the other day. Haven't watched it but the comments seem positive.
