Aston Villa Women 2023/24

Fine.  But it's just frustrating Rachel Daly should be the one people talk about far more

Because she's good and scores goals?!

[Footy-Vill]

Best ever Villa woman's player.  Fact.

[VillaTim]

That Leon looks a decent prospect

Have I missed a deleted post? Afterall the thread has plenty of mentions of Daly.

Obviously we are also playing poorer opposition then the first few games, but no surprise with Dali and Hanson back and playing, we are getting results again.

[Footy-Vill]

In the opening minutes of the League Cup, already up 1-0.
Salmon scored.
With this one, we can afford to rest Daly and a few others against Blackburn. We have quite a mild and easy set of Championship teams,  Durham, and Sunderland and Sheffield United in the group . Sheffield United we defeated last time 5-0 away including a hat-trick from superstar Daly.

Finished 7 - 0

Brilliant result!

[Somniloquism]

Not sure how the groups are drawn and any seeding but looking at group B compared to all the others......

[ADVILLAFAN]

Assume it is regionalised, as we always seem to get northern sides
We've definitely played Durham a fair few times.

[Somniloquism]

There does seem to be some regionalisation, Group B is both Manchester Clubs, both Liverpool clubs and Leicester. Blues seems to be in the London and Southern teams. They could have easily done us, Blues, Leicester and throw in Bristol to make the numbers up and is not far to travel compared to us having to go to Durham and Sunderland. But it seems we don't qualify as a region and so have to be split between north and south.

I was going to go tonight, despite it involving a round trip from Stockton-on-Tees. However my niece cried off earlier, and I weighed up that the trip without her involvement wasn't worth it. So I've tried to watch it on my phone in the pub. Between assorted distractions and diversions I managed to miss 6 of the goals!

Salmon really is smoking.

I guess you know a lot about smoking fish, kippa?

[kippaxvilla2]

Certainly do.  Certainly relieved the tenchion.
