timeEd32 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Shit, I glanced at Wikipedia the other day and thought they had gotten promoted to the Championship. The club really didn't try before, huh? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I think the problem someone mentioned is to move up you have to win the league and THEN win a playoff against the southern league winners to go up. I think it's going to be an long process for the lasses. Looks like they are doing the long approach like Eddie and will be building up the youth and trying not to dismantle the squad morale bringing in too many new players and pushing out others. This is a step up though so there will have to be some turnover.

Paullow Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Crazy how in this league, as well as the two directly above them in the third tier (Northern Premier Division and Southern Premier Division) the top 2 all had the same W,D,L record and all 3 leagues were separated by goal difference.

TheBrownBottle Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Great news. The women's game was treated criminally for the majority of footballing history - and of course Mike Ashley's NUFC kept that inglorious tradition going far too long into the 21st century.

TomYam Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Manchester United Women F.C was only formed in 2018 and were immediately invited into the newly formed Championship, which they won in that first year and so got promoted to the PL after one year. They were Johnny-come-latelys but got their act together in the nick of time. Ashley didn't care one iota and so by 2018 we were the only one of the top 16 clubs in the country to show no interest in having a women's team (let alone a competitive one). If it hadn't been for Chris Hughton and Rafa Benitez, the senior men's team might have been as uncompetitive as our (non-affiliated) ladies and youth and u-21s. The man was poison.

They only play 11 matches at home in the league, 1 of those was at SJP where they got 24,000. 3817 x 11 = 41987 through the gates for the season. 42,000 - 24,000 = 18,000, so they would have got a total of 18,000 for the other 10 matches, which works out an average of 1,800 per game. They had a couple of evening matches at home and I'm sure they had a few matches at Druids Park as well which would have likely knocked a bit off what they usually got at KP on a Sunday afternoon. Hard to find official attendances per match, bar that one at SJP, but they have clearly taken into account the big one.
