@JanetDawson7 @NSoulby Always has to be all about them and whining. Never any credit to opposition. Any sympathy aside, and it will soon wear thin with this type of report. Beaten fairly and convincingly. 🤷

@NSoulby I’ve just read it and it’s laughable 😂 I don’t remember a game where we have been so dominant it could have been double the scoreline, I sympathise with what’s gone on at Rovers but be honest 🤷♀️🤣

@LadyMontyA350 Love this, by far my favourite aircraft as it stands.

@Adventurooga @MattHughesMedia @Since71Blog @ObserverUK Lol, yeah whatever. I'd just like to see where upto 4 grands of worth kit is and where it comes from. I just can't work it out.

@CoolTails @MattHughesMedia @Since71Blog @ObserverUK Except that’s not how you phrased it. You phrased it as though it was a lie.

WSL players paying up to £4,000-a-year to buy their own boots, with sponsorship deals not commonplace and many clubs not providing them. Story for @ObserverUK observer.co.uk/news/sport/art…

@Adventurooga @MattHughesMedia @Since71Blog @ObserverUK Struggling to come up with 4 grands worth out of own pocket.

@EmmaHickson The bubble burst long ago. Nothing but talk and waffle

Oh the Euro22 bubble has well and truly burst…
Sad to see another club falling victim to performative backing. Token support followed by withdrawal the moment it became inconvenient - players/staff and all connected deserve better 👍🏼

@JanetDawson7 Any other business would have been closed down. No idea how football keeps getting away with it. No other business would

@CoolTails Pretty much every men’s football club in the country (probably planet) is in crippling debt - people do not have a clue what they are talking about 😂🤯

If I got paid everytime someone said to me the boys is where the money is, I'd be able to buy my own club. Totally broken.

For as far as women's football has come, it has a long way to go until situations such as this are no longer a regular occurrence. Blackburn Rovers and Barnsley FC may be two of the latest incidents; they sadly won't be the last.

@JanetDawson7 And 0 appreciation or understanding of any clubs that are breaking even and not in debt and swimming against the tide and pushing on. Let alone girls and women's only clubs

@J_Slater_ @TomJGarry That's the problem, 2.8 million in losses and what for unless it's making money not worth it

Before we rush to criticise men's clubs for not stumping up yet more cash - remember that for many years, the FA deprioritised sustainable revenue generation, in favour of encouraging women's teams to be acquired by men's clubs to access quick money and facilities.

There are growing concerns that Blackburn Rovers may withdraw from WSL 2. No decision has yet been made but the club are yet to fully commit to the extra funding needed for next season's licence requirements. Deadline to decide is next week. #BarclaysWSL2 theguardian.com/football/2025/…

These girls deserve absolutely everything. They’ll be doing a sponsored walk in July to raise funds for a new matchday kit. Please, if you can, sponsor us and share. #JustGiving justgiving.com/crowdfunding/j…

As the season starts to come to an end, I’ve come to truly realize how thankless grassroots sport can be, especially as a committee member. Speaking with former coaches and club members, many who’ve stepped away after years or decades, they’re happy to have their time back, but I can’t help but reflect on the immense effort involved.
Coaches and committee members sacrifice a lot of their personal time—sometimes missing work or taking on tasks for free—just to ensure clubs meet their requirements. They dedicate hours preparing training sessions, attending meetings, and more. This needs to be acknowledged:
When you’re rushing to training or running late, remember that coaches are leaving work, sometimes having only minutes to change, or even coaching in their work clothes. While you sit and relax, they’re there before and after you.
When you say “it’s too early” or “too far,” know that your child’s coach is getting there even earlier, driving long distances, and already prepping the pitch and warm-up drills by the time you arrive.
If you have other children or commitments, remember that many coaches juggle similar responsibilities, often in challenging weather conditions.
Coaches sacrifice social events, evenings, and even holidays to keep the season running smoothly. They commit, even when it’s inconvenient for them.
After training, how often do you stay to help with setup or takedown? Coaches, many of whom are parents themselves, do this without hesitation.
Before criticizing, remember that coaches are volunteers who put in the hard work for the benefit of all children. They’re not doing it for personal gain—they’re doing it for the team. Grassroots volunteers, especially coaches, are priceless, and their sacrifice does not go unnoticed.
