She did play for Bham City though at one time Birmingham City have actually been pretty good for the women's game overall. It's just about the only thing they've ever managed to get right. They're suffering a bad decline now, but overall anyone who has been involved in their setup over the last few years is good value for money. For instance, Carla Ward. She's considered a top class manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 The topic of this thread is Remi Allen, if you want to discuss anything else I suggest you all use the things that piss me off that shouldn't thread in off topic. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ender4 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) For those who have just started taking an interest in Villa's womens team, this was the league table from last season where we stayed up on the last day of the season on our first season in the top division (remind anyone of the men's team the previous season). https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/womens-super-league/table Aiming for a lower-mid table finish this coming season hopefully (again following the trajectory of the men's team).

NeilS Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Welcome to Villa Remi. I can’t say I knew anything about her before today, but It sounds like she is a seasoned pro and will add a lot of experience and know how to the squad over the next couple of seasons. Fingers crossed the Women’s team should have a more comfortable season this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post John Posted July 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2021 Another new signing and another 5 pages, much of which has involved whether the signing of a young woman by our football club should be featured as an individual topic on VT. Women have been playing football and have been following our football club, since before all of us were born. They would rightly wonder why this is an issue in 2021, particularly when we now have an Aston Villa women's team. I for one, had great aunt's that were fans of our great football club, that told me of games they had attended, that had featured the likes of Harry Hampton, Howard Spencer and Billy Walker, when I was a young boy. I'm sure many of us know of ladies that have been an influence on them and on the team that they support. Whether you choose to read on having found that a topic is about our women's team or not, is a choice that we are all free to make. In the same way women, have the choice to read about the men's game or not. It is encouraging that increasingly more do so and actively support both the men's and women's teams. I for one, have an interest in how all of Aston Villa's teams are getting on. That said it's a choice that we are all free to make and if you decide that a topic on the women's team is not for you, then there are plenty of other topics to look at. By the way, welcome to our football club Remi! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is that people almost exclusively joined this forum to follow the AVFC football team. Men's football. While there's nothing wrong with having a thread with women's footy, it's largely annoying to have 'new player' threads thinking they are for the men's team. Almost click bait'esque. Keep it marked or to a seperate forum. If the interest is there people will read it either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's already there, but i suppose it's easy to be blind to all the tags, Someone suggested a '[W]" at the beginning of the topic header, which is also a solution..
