Holmes_and_Watson Posted 19 November, 2023 Share Posted 19 November, 2023 Palace Equalise. That was coming. Palace had been able to get through our defence quite easily. That was worked across the box, then back for the finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 19 November, 2023 Share Posted 19 November, 2023 2-2 at the break. We had chances, but look a little tired against Palace. They are a little sharper, get forward in numbers and we're struggling to get a spell of control. We're just about getting it clear. But it's more where it goes that determines if we're doing anything with it. It didn't lead to a goal, or even a chance but Palace's Hopcroft nearly made a lovely through ball for a great chance.

Saint_clark Posted 19 November, 2023 Share Posted 19 November, 2023 It's really a shame some of the promotion team opted not to take full time contracts and left the club. Caitlin Morris would have made a big difference at CB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 19 November, 2023 Share Posted 19 November, 2023 We finished very strongly. Clever subs really helped, but we looked to have more in the tank towards the end, and that could have been more.

In the women's game generally you can only afford to drop points in 3 or 4 games if you're going for promotion. All the teams have dropped points in at least 4 games so far (Saints on equal least).

Doctoroncall Posted 19 November, 2023 Share Posted 19 November, 2023 Charlton and Birmingham the form teams out of the top five looking for the only promotion spot.

Master Bates Posted 19 November, 2023 Share Posted 19 November, 2023 (edited) Erin Bloomfield signs for Bournemouth. Bloomfield signed for Saints in October 2019 and had scored 12 goals in just ten games when the season was abandoned due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Bloomfield then spent three years studying in the United States, turning out for Troy University, in this spell Bloomfield stood out in a struggling team, earning 'Sun Belt's Offensive Player of the Week' in her second season. Following a return to English football Bloomfield, again signed for Southampton, netting 3 in 7 games.

sibster Posted 19 November, 2023 Share Posted 19 November, 2023 Cracking game and a lovely header to secure the 3pts. It's so right at the top right now, if it stays like that we are in for a thrilling end to the season! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabrice Fernandes no.1 fan Posted 23 November, 2023 Share Posted 23 November, 2023 Sold over 12,500 tickets, the final last year only had 19,000 so clearly a big deal! Sadly I do think a large number will be wanting to see some of the Lionesses, rather than necessarily the under 23 lionesses we have, but if it inspires a new generation of Saints fans then that is a great thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winners get 2pts, 1 for the draw, 1 for the penalty win and the other team get 1pt for the draw. That's why we have 5pts from a win and a draw.
