She's a centre half. She's highly rated so would be a coupe for hibs. Where have you seen that?Quote:

For some reason I thought she played midfield last season. She’s just been released by Man U along with 8 others I think. In the process of signing with Hibs.Quote:

Hopefully the new signings all prove to be successes.
I'm surprised Mutch is leaving. Thought she'd be our no. 2, but maybe wants to be first pick somewhere
Had a feeling Coyle might be going given the number of strikers we've got now.
Muir's gone to Glasgow CityQuote:

How many full time players will Hibs have next season ?
Going by signings and current players we've announced as signing permanent deals on social media.Quote:

Boyle hasn't signed yet, but she said she hasn't had a conversation about it yet. She certainly intends to be because she mentioned on the Behind the Goals pod that with full time training she thinks she could be playing by March.
Cheers , thats a really encouraging numberQuote:

Makes sense. I'd say, purely on guess work, that there enough for a starting 11 who are full time.Quote:

No. Also Joelle's Head of Girls Academy was advertised last week (assuming thats the same role she used to do - she may have another role in the foundation) Only £10k a year for 20hrs a week.......Quote:

She's a proper coupe then. Well done to hibs for getting her. She's powerful, reads the game well and she'll kick on a develop.Quote:

Welcome to hibs Poppy... you've traded the biggest club in the world, for the best.

Edinburgh City Women havent even been put in the championship. Very surprising. That league they are in is awful.Quote:

Good about the season tickets. £100 is very reasonable.
Maybe next year they'll do a combined one for both teams.
I hadn’t realised they were a separate entity. What was the reason for that?Quote:

Great news, it was never a good look to have the women's team at arms length so to speak. We are all one club and this goes a long way to showing that.

Yeh I thought they could have a double header if both at home, meadowbank would make sense for that, give the women's game a boost in attendance...
I think leith are playing there too. BUT perhaps a few of the teams will be in the other astros? (If they are full size)Quote:

1st game in pre-season friendlies
Hibernian 6 Aberdeen 0
Aberdeen will struggle if they dont sign some players this season. 4 or 5 of the 18s from last year have been promoted but i've not seen anyone come into the squad.Quote:

Been looking at Celtic as well thinking this is a real opportunity for us this year. Especially as I feel, bar the 4-0, we were unlucky against them and FT football was the key factor in them winning.Quote:

Rangers beat Spartans in a bounce game wed night. Think it finished 3-0. Rangers young players were very impressive. Spartans did well to keep it low. Hibs beat BTFC 8-0 tonight. An easy work out for Hibs. At the moment I expect Rangers to win the league easy. Hibs should be pushing for 3rd. They need to add some more quantity to the squad.
Just announced Lucy Parry on loan from Liverpool. Imagine she gives us more depth at the back.Quote:

A young right back. That’s 2 very good English players they now have in the squad. They are certainly going for immediate success with the signing policy.Quote:

Going by the pre season games, it looks like Lawson is a stick on with maybe Shiv, mostly partnering?
I'm not sure if Gibson bothered trying a back 3 again.
Just noticed a Hibs women ST is £100. It think that’s more expensive that any of the WSL in England. Rangers are £89. We need to get down below the £50 mark if we are going to grow the game. Man U is £32.
I wonder if that is partly down to the rent at Meadowbank? A FC Edinburgh season ticket is £250 and a walk up is £18!Quote:

fancy 4th for Hibs this season
I just think the ST has to be a lose leader though. Get the money off people once they are in the ground. (I realise that’s tricky when must clubs aren’t using their own stadiums). The challenge or getting gates of 500+ every week then grown for them.Quote:

I think Glasgow City might reclaim the crown this season. Cav is a great signing for the Huns but they've lost Jane Ross to injury and I believe are light at the back.Quote:

Just annoying the first game is away to Celtic and it looks like we're still waiting on some of the new signings arriving.
I think long-term it certainly makes sense so you can develop the fanbase and make it a habit to go see the women, or the Hibs game of choice at the weekend for some fans (like it is for my friend's daughter when he makes her chose one!)Quote:

Rangers are moving to that stadium in Cumbernauld. They ares starting to get 200+ most weeks. The WSL is clearly heavily subsidised. Just trying to think of ways to get more fans in. Not many people are going to spend £100 on a womens ST unless its family and friends.Quote:

It'll be interesting to see what crowds we can get now we're ateadowbank, but I agree we need to be setting the goal of filling it.
Apparently FC Edinburgh have only sold 10 season tickets or something so we'll probably beat that 😂
They’ll sell out most weeks, nothing available for Dunfermline at home on SaturdayQuote:

good result for Rangers winning 4-0 in Greece v PAOK, one more win away from the group stages
Motherwell have Leeanne Crichton involved now but this result is not good.
