Is there transfer fees in the women's game? Most seem to just leave after short term contracts on bosmans from what I can see?There was/is serious interest from one big club in particular down south in her.
There is now that teams are putting players on longer contracts.Is there transfer fees in the women's game? Most seem to just leave after short term contracts on bosmans from what I can see?
I’m sure Docherty is captain.who was last seasons captain?
Kathryn Hill has been made captain this season replacing Brianna Westrup who was Captain last season.I’m sure Docherty is
Doherty captained some games last season and during pre-season.I’m sure Docherty is captain.
I got the 'Back soon' and then 'We are experiencing technical difficulties...' followed by the Celtic-Hibs game with no warning. Abysmal.Response I got from the BBC:

Is this factual? I saw “back soon” and the next thing it jumped to the C3ltic game.

They’re miles ahead of most other times, but in this case it was a newly promoted side with a new manager and had lost the vast majority of their better players that got them promoted so a massive score line was always on the cards.Was on a channel last night and highlights came on. 14-0?
Is this the standard they are playing against or a freak result?
They’ve moved to Broadwood, bigger venue as they continually sold out the Training Centre and also for champions league purposes.Apologies if covered elsewhere in the thread but do the woman's team not play their games at Auchenhowie?
I'm sure they used to, was planning to take the kids to see some of the games (too young to go to Ibrox just yet) but see the games this season have been played at Airdrie's ground I think it is?

3 really good young players - their generation will see a major step forward in the quality of women's football in Scotland I think as they'll be the first who have been going through the academy in a proper pro football environment.
Wont be the last hiding they take this season or the last one Rangers dish out.Was on a channel last night and highlights came on. 14-0?

Formally Glasgow Girls and changed / updated their name in 2019.Where have Glasgow woman spouted from?
Today illustrates the women’s team problem. Games like today are no preparation for Europe, city or the hagrids. Also - it’s difficult to sell such one sided games - not only to spectators but future players, managers etc.
They’re just promoted so will struggle. Top 3 are head and shoulders above next tier who are head and shoulders above the next tierWas on a channel last night and highlights came on. 14-0?

Thanks for this - you clearly have your ear to the ground about such things. I’m relatively new to the women’s game and without much insight - keep us updated on these non football related issues. Fascinating stuffRangers - circa £1.2 million budget
Celtic - circa £500,000 budget
City - circa £750,000 budget (financed by James Anderson).
The rest are miles behind.
However Hearts, Hibs and must be in the £200,000 budget now with the signings onto full time contracts for players.
There is also a dearth of quality player across the game, SWF have made a complete s**tshow of running things in the last 5 years and it hasn't grown as much as it should of (lets just say the Board isn't fit for purpose).
HOWEVER, the embarrassing lack of any serious investment from the SFA has to be called into question. I don't think anyone is expecting a limitless cash pot, but they have to do more for the game.
She’s fantastic. Such a good attitude.

Such a nice person and brilliant ambassador for RFC
(Sorry for posting in wrong thread before!)
Is game on Alba or RTV today?
Would be good to see us destroy the sheep
Its on neither. Its available on iPlayer though and, I think, on the BBC Sport website.Is game on Alba or RTV today?

I'm sure I recall watching an evening game up at Pittodrie last season where we really struggled to eventually get the win, with a couple of goals around the hour mark. Hopefully more straightforward this time as, in truth, Aberdeen weren't very good and I doubt they have improved.Don’t see anything other than a win again today, Aberdeen didn’t get off to a great start last week but will be a sticky team at home, expect our class to show through though and a comfortable win by a couple of goals.
I don’t think they’re as good as they were last year, they lost to Hamilton last week for example!I'm sure I recall watching an evening game up at Pittodrie last season where we really struggled to eventually get the win, with a couple of goals around the hour mark.

Cheers , I know I am thick, but surely they could make it easier to find. Hopefully game is worth the effortCan't see this on the BBC Sport website or iPlayer yet. Anyone got a link as I appear to be missing where to find it?
EDIT: Found it @Gersdave but no pictures yet.

I'm interested to see Hill and Davison together at the back. That has been the worry since we lost Westrup and Swaby.Squad is frightening now.
Squad is frightening now.
I'm sure Ross was going to be captain but injury has put a stop to thatDoherty captained some games last season and during pre-season.
Westrup was official Captain. Hill is official captain this year but Docherty will probably be Vice Captain.
