The FA has dropped Watford girl’s football academy as a centre of excellence.


This is a really good venue for girl’s football and we need more academies not less.
Please sign the petition to get keep the academy

    Surely we should be signing a petition about our own being scrapped rather than Watford's?

    Or is that already in place?

    I agree with WSS - there was no indication of why we have lost the status!

    Possibly because we are now very much an ex-Premiershit club?

    I'm pretty sure signing one doesn't preclude you from signing the other....

    They lost their status because Arsenal applied and the FA decided they couldn't both have it. So out of big boys and smaller boys guess who won?

    This is exactly why we should support them, to stop the big clubs taking everything.
