Its obviously Man Utd time for the Albion at the moment, as the Women take on Man Utd away today in the Womens Super League.

Currently sitting 4th and 5th in the table after a win and a draw for both teams in their opening two games this will be a stern test for the Albion against a team that put 5 past Birmingham. Hopefully we will be able to stay strong defensively and get a least a point. Winning would be a very good result and have the added bonus of getting revenge for the mens team!

Kick off is at 12pm, and the match is being shown live for free on FA Player

The same Man Utd that were playing Lewes FC ladies at the Dripping Pan last season or the season before.

Hardly the same as they have invested very heavily in their squad.

Todays squad. Would've had Stott starting myself but a very strong bench to help affect the game if needed is a sign of the depth in the squad this year.

Looking forward to seeing how she does. Less good news is Stott having picked up a niggle hence why shes not starting.

Blast needed to take the dog out quickly and we are one down.

Could we have prevented the goal.

Under the kosh. We are missing Stott at the back.

Le Tissier gave away a penalty but it was hard to see if it really was one or not.

Weathering a storm at the moment, need to get to Half Time and regroup.

Ahh what a chance. Connolly puts it over the bar from close range as she slips in a crowded penalty area.

Man Utd have put us under a lot of pressure and go in at halftime 1-0 up - would like to see the foul that gave away the penalty again though! We've finished the half strongly which should give us hope for the 2nd half and had a good chance with Connolly - shame about the slip. Got to be a bit less panicky in defence and find a way to catch them on the break in the 2nd half

Sounds like it was a harsh pen against us. We had some chances to level. Lets hope we can come out with the same attitude second half.
