Newcastle United Women

I really hope Amanda's tenure ending doesn't have a negative effect on the lasses. The relationship, with both the men's and especially the lasses, was unique in football. She is very tactile and has personal relationships with the staff and players and was very open and loved a hug and kiss when the game was over, win lose or draw. With the Kingston park crowd she regularly held impromptu meet and greets and it created something no other clubs can match. This can't be replicated as it's real, personality based and natural. It's what makes us different and as many have said, she just got us.

I'm sure the lasses will continue to be backed and Becky and Sue will still drive us forward but a part of what made us so special is no longer going to be there. I'm sure we are going to be competitive yet again and I wouldn't be surprised if we continue as we have and win the league again but it's going to be difficult to maintain the personal investment from the board without Amanda's involvement. A professional corporate management appear to be the wish of the majority but for me the close, hands on approach is what made supporting the lasses so special.

Roll on the next signing and winning the championship

I think we'll be just fine... 

I really really hope so, and im sure we'll all enjoy the ride! But realistically not one of our players would slot into a WSL team, including the new signings!

Demi stokes is a high profile signing but she's barely played in the last couple of years!

Would love it if we could get a few in with great potential, but I'm sure that will come eventually!
