Pretty poor game. I guess a point is ok. Keep picking up points here and there and we’ll be ok. Bees losing 7-0. Coventry winning. Still pretty tight at the bottom.
in the present situation with just one due to go down will count as a point gained rather than 2 lost. Stay up and rebuild in the summer.
Yep. Absolutely.
Also, the Bees look like they’re in all sorts of trouble. We’re now 3 points clear of them with 3 games in hand and their goal difference is pretty much worth another point.
Vital point given that Coventry won. This is the sort of game we were losing by the odd goal earlier in the season, and particularly last season. It's always going to be tough in a league where half the teams are full-time professionals but we've got a couple more games against mid-table teams and then the big one against Bees. We can do this.
Hate to say it, as it’s the old cliché with women’s football, but the goalkeeping for the goal was appalling.
We've talked about it before, the powers that be should consider making the cross bar a few in inches lower. Women by nature are a few inches shorter than men.

If I remember I'll turn in and watch next Sunday.
Maybe that’s a debate for another day, but this was nothing to do with the size of the goal. One of our girls took a relatively tame shot along the ground. It should have been end of move right there. Goalie inexplicably failed to gather it and miscontrolled the ball, dropping it at the feet of our player and she put it away.

This. It is patronising to suggest women should play with smaller goals. The game was 1-1. Not 9 -8 and it doesn't seem to me that there are too many unusual scores at the highest level of the women's game.
There are women goalkeepers today that show the size of the goal is not an issue. I believe we will see improvements as time goes on. Keeping is such a technical position and we need to see the female keepers who have come out of a full process.
I thought our keeper looked promising though. Her handling was very good. She is young and I hope she is getting some top coaching now the women's club has become part of the overall club again.

can’t have the boss miss this
Awful game to be honest, compared with last Sunday.
pretty poor game so far. Lewes better but not creating a huge amount.

Come on the girls!
Terrible back header
Come on you Reds
Bowyer out
Shame that a poor mistake cost two points.
