Well! At least for now - check it out.

Here's a table of of the 8 clubs that compete in the four top leagues (unfortunately - Liverpool don't compete in the womens Super League - so are excluded).

	Club	Premier	Under23	Under18	Women	Aggregate	Ave Pos
1	Brighton	5th	2nd	6th	1st	14	3.50
2	Man City	4th	1st	7th	7th	19	4.75
3	Chelsea	2nd	12th	1st	6th	21	5.25
4	Arsenal	16th	3rd	5th	2nd	26	6.50
4	Spurs	6th	5th	11th	4th	26	6.50
4	West Ham	7th	4th	7th	8th	26	6.50
7	Man Utd	1st	11th	14th	3rd	29	7.25
8	Everton	8th	8th	10th	12th	38	9.50

Not bad for a "Small" club!

Love random stuff like this, but it does show much we have progressed and how far we've come!

Their first team would have to be 4th to go above the almighty BHAFC in this table.

It is so obviously early days - and won't last to this extent - but it IS remarkable and a better reflection of where we are as a club than was our Premier League points tally and placing last season...

Indeed, let's all rejoice for as long as it lasts.

It certainly highlights the way the club are trying to progress. Building the entire club at the same time, not just concentrating on the mens first team, but investing in players, coaches, facilities across the whole of the club. Giving us a really broad and strong foundation that will serve us well in the future
The confidence across all of the different teams must be sky high, with a such a successful start to the season, and with all of the teams playing a similar style progression from the underage teams to the first team will be a lot easier than when they were effectively separate entities. Just look at Fergusson, playing for both underage mens teams and the first team -even if it was a cup game. It shows how coherent the the planning has been from the youngest players through to the first team

Just an amazing time to be supporting the club

I was thinking most English because we have an English Owner, English Manager and many English Players - typically 6 in the matchday team.
