May end up as one of the smaller crowds for the women at SJP which is a shame. It is disappointing based on previous attendances, but to put it into perspective, Man U women got about the same for their champions league game against PSG last night. Arsenal women have shown in order to build the attendances you need to be patient, but you need to be consistent! The focus on our women's team is very inconsistent, and the fact they still dont have a manager, and no one is even being linked, speaks volumes!

Arsenal get good crowd but I think they have always priced the game right for what is essentially an event in central London. They are also historically one of the bigger clubs in the womens game as well, and have a good history of success which has only really been challenged in recent years by the likes of Chelsea and Man City.

The fact that nobody is being linked doesn't bother me particularly. I don't think there is a huge amount of value for journalists digging around for info and I fully expect it to be announced out of the blue. It's frustrating that, judging by how long ago they binned Langley, they are struggling to get who they want. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but Chelsea win the league every year (5 or 6 years in a row) and have a squad full of superstars, yet they get mostly 10-15k attendances when they play at Stamford Bridge, because they've not as consistent with their support, despite the success of the team.

Yep, and bare in mind it's the second tier and we're matching and bettering attendances at the top level. Edited November 14, 2025 by Decky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OpenC Posted November 15, 2025 Share Posted November 15, 2025 Anybody know who's been turning out for the reserves recently? Alnwick Town Women playing them tomorrow, I had maybe been maybe planning to maybe go along to SJP but I'll probably go to the reserves instead.

toontownman Posted November 16, 2025 Share Posted November 16, 2025 Can't find that final pass. Sunderland have been comfortable so far, even if we are just edging it so far. Sevenius has been bright but cant finish sequences consistently enough. Although everytime she gets the ball and loses it i am waiting for the commentators to start the lion king. The close up camera shots look like slower motion replays too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JigsawGoesToPieces Posted November 16, 2025 Share Posted November 16, 2025 Not a frequent watcher of WSL2 football but god its a hard watch, there isn't much quality even when i tried to watch WSL a couple of times in the last the bar for quality wasn't particularly high Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted November 16, 2025 Share Posted November 16, 2025 Been extremely poor quality. Constantly passing it to the opposition or out of play, heavy touches etc. Nobbs has been shite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted November 16, 2025 Share Posted November 16, 2025 It's like playing with 10 men playing with Hayles as she just doesn't move. Dominant in terms of possession, but again lacking quality up front. I'm surprised Gregory was dropped. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted November 16, 2025 Share Posted November 16, 2025 Watched 10 mins of it on YouTube but switched it off and got Hungary v Ireland on now. If that's the usual standard of the womens team I dof my cap to all those who sit through that every week because I thought it was dreadful as a spectacle. Standard is abysmal and there's just zero intensity to it. I'm sure in the small part I watched a Sunderland player pulled a Newcastle player down to the ground by her pony tail as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
