It just struck me that Hibs have the perfect colours for a womens team - Green,white and Purple - the original colours used by suffragettes !

in 2028 it'll be the 100th anniversary of equal voting rights in the UK, a themed strip that year would probably sell quite well to Hibs, and non-Hibs, supporters.

FT's

Celtic 13 Aberdeen 0
Dundee United 1 Glasgow City 3
Hearts 6 Hamilton 1
Motherwell 2 Partick Thistle 4
Rangers 7 Montrose 0
Spartans 1 Hibernian 4


still 5th behind the four Glasgow Sides, big test next for Hibs, i think that's 15 points taken from the last five games v sides below them but home v Glasgow City next up

A severe credibility issue for the SWPL when the current 7th best and 6th best budgeted team in the country is beaten 13-0 by the 2nd top team.
Partick Thistle continue to be the best performing £ per point team in the country. The only team bucking the budgets in the top 7.

Unless you tell the top teams that they can’t spend money then these results will continue.

This isn't something limited to the SWPL, every league/competition will have teams losing by silly margins, even in the top 5 leagues (Bayern have recorded a 7 and an 8 nil win already this season). Happens a bit more in the SWPL as teams are developing, if anything they have a more valid excuse.

For the 2nd season in a row challenging Hibs and Hearts with a relative budget of buttons.

Yes, lovely strike to equalise but the draw sees them relegated.

We were unlucky with injuries this competition, much like the men's team, if we lose our best players to injury then there is a big drop. In saying that, I'm still not convinced by Losa at all and extending his contract to 2027 when he's not achieved anything yet (not qualifying for the WC was a massive failure) is madness.

Yes they've been a bit unlucky to go down, having played well in spells and there's definitely potential there. They'll be keen to make life hard for England in their final game even if it impacts on GB Olympic hopes.

England have gone off the boil themselves of late but that was a cracking comeback against the Dutch last night.

At least he’s finally starting to get some fresh blood in. Goalkeeper is an upgrade. A few others still to be removed from the squad. Corsie, evans are long past it.

Yeah the key area is the back, I'd add Docherty and McLauchlan to the list as areas needing improved upon.

He seems to suffer from the same problem Kerr did, when we are the team with the ball we struggle to create decent chances and put them away. It cost us the Euros under Kerr and then it cost us the WC under Losa. No real plan B.

Spartans manager "steps down" to concentrate on her new role as CEO of Spartans community. Will be interesting to see who applies for the job.

[Brightside]

Scotland v England will be on BBC and iplayer for anyone wanting to see Scotland getting battered. It’s an awful starting 11 that’s been chosen.

[cabbageandribs1875]

free header, Docherty can't jump either

amateur

[Pretty Boy]

Marking was piss poor and the keeper not much better. Awful goal to concede.

Should be 2.

Scotland have played some decent stuff since conceding though.

Scotland have a few decent players but the drop down in level to some of the others is massive.

Particularly defensively the players are absolutely miles off the standard to compete at the top level.

Erin Cuthbert is also clearly nowhere near fit.

[Brightside]

Some of these players should be nowhere near the squad never mind the starting 11.

[cabbageandribs1875]

our keeper pulled her arms away from the ball


meanwhile in the Netherlands they're screaming "fix"

[chasitup]

Scotland are utterly honking. Offer next to nothing going forward. Not sure what Emslie offers other than running. Gibson is a dreadful goalkeeper, and the defence is brutal.

[hibby rae]

Stroke of genius giving Losa an extension until 2027

It wasn’t docherty. Emma mukardju (sp). She is awful. We’ve taken Maciver the English keeper - yet still play Gibson. Makes no sense. Also playing the games at Hampden is just stupid. A big empty stadium.

The decision to play at Hampden all the time is mental, I know the players wanted it but I personally think the national team should be as accessible to as many people as possible, and that means different stadiums. Especially as the women's games are nearly always a week day evening.
