Southampton Women’s Team

Big game for Portsmouth too. Cringetag United. Who are the only team to beat us in the league so far, cringetag have lost a couple of games but overall their form has been annoyingly good. Doesn't feel too melodramatic to say this could the title decider

And if they do expand the leagues, I wonder if they'll do applications again or if they'll just temporarily increase the number of promotion places.

 

Sunday 14th January 2024 The Women's FA Cup - Fourth Round
Sunderland Women 0 v Southampton F.C. Women 2 Wilkinson 55 & 88 minutes Full Time.

 

Just spotted that it was an FA Cup game
Doh

Fact that we won is a good sign for the league though

 

Portsmouth won 2-1 against cringetag. Now top of the league by virtue of goal difference but have two games in hand

Watch out Southampton, we're coming for you, maybe

 

That's last year. That's ancient history, man.

 

Sunday 21st January 2024. Women's Championship

Southampton F.C. Women 3. (Collett. Pharoah 2) v Watford Women 0. FT

 

Another league win
Next 2 games v Palace and Brum are 6 pointers

 

Couple of really good goals from Pharoah who is up for the Championship player and goal awards for Jan ...

 

Saints equalise v Man Utd.

 

Sunday 18th Febuary 2024 Birmingham 1 Southampton 2 FT

 

Portsmouth lost today in the semi finals of the league cup against Newcastle, in what is looking like the dress-rehersal to our inevitable play off defeat to Newcastle if we win the league.

Sigh

 

Saints lost 1-0 to Sunderland
Shows how close they are to the teams fighting for promotion

Their next 4 are very winnable vs bottom half teams

Sunday 31st March 2024.

Southampton Women 2 Lewes Women 1. FT . New player Emma Thompson with both goals.

 

So Portsmouth now just need one point to win the league and it turns out it's auto promotion hurrah.

Derby days are (probably) back again

Also from a person perspective, there's a couple of close sides to me in the championship next season so might get to a couple of away games

 

Still an outside chance Saints could get promoted to the WSL.

That would be such a shame

 

Yeah but if Sunderland win one of their last two games then they win the league... It's doable but the odds aren't in your favour.

Hoping reading stay up though
