Great signing for Hibs. Weakens their nearest rivals. She’s a young dynamic centre mid and has been outstanding for Spartans this season
might pop along :)

Any idea why the Women's kit doesn't have a sponsor again this season?
Would have thought it made sense for Utilita to sponsor both men and women, particularly given the rising profile of the women's game.
Holders Hibernian scored 10 for the second game in a row to reach the SWPL Cup last eight, while Rangers joined them with a 5-2 win over Aberdeen.
Michaela McAlonie, Colette Cavanagh and Alexa Coyle each scored a double as Hibs thrashed hosts Dundee United 10-2.
Kilmarnock will face Dundee United on Sunday for the remaining quarter-final berth in Group B after winning 3-0 at Stirling University.
Rangers saw off already-qualified Aberdeen for a third straight win.
Goals from Rachel McLauchlan, Zoe Ness, Jane Ross, Lizzie Arnot and Chantelle Swaby inflicted the visitors' first loss in Group A and sent Rangers top with a game to spare.
Motherwell saw off Boroughmuir Thistle 4-1 for their first win, with both sides unable to progress.
Glasgow City, in Group C, are already through, with the four remaining places to be decided in Sunday's final round of group games.

I have enjoyed watching the womans team in recent years and was hoping to catch them more often, but the strange livi move decision has put paid to that.
For me it's a shame we are not pushing the womans team more. We seem to be building a good side and players like murray, boyle and hunter are great club ambassadors. It would be sad to watch the old firm and others overtake us when we have been so competitive for years.
Personally I would play nearer ER and allow first team season ticket holders in for free to boost crowds and engagement.
The womans game has kicked on down south and would love our club to push our side a bit more to keep up.
I would agree that we should be playing nearer ER if not at ER. Letting our season ticket holders in free will not work as Hibernian women have their own Season ticketQuote:

They don't use Ladies anymore as a name.

I was hoping they'd play at Meadowbank. Should be opening soon. Not only is the Livi stadium a pain to get to if you don't drive. There's also limited options for pubs etc.
Mickey already proving to be a great signing. Weaken the neighbours and strengthening the core.
Our club appear to have pushed our side right enough ......out of Edinburgh and far away out of sight.Quote:

Ron was at the game as the weekend. So if he's gone out of his way to go to Livi to watch it there must be interest. They've also signed a lot of players this season which suggests more focus.Quote:

Yeah but the bus takes forever, and your life force is drained out of you as your are forced to see Livingston.Quote:

That's good.Quote:

Why would they need 2,500 seats.Quote:

Canny mind,had a few beers by then
I would imagine they'll get a few hundred at best at Livingston. Will seem virtually empty.
Think they should have played at some where like Meggetland. Decent enough setup close to the centre of Edinburgh.
:rolleyes:Quote:

Following Edinburgh City about again.Quote:
