Celebrating Bethany England
Some strikers score trophy winning goals. Some strikers score goals that dig out their teams in difficult times. I hope that there is a future in which Bethany England wins trophies at Spurs, but right now, with six games remaining, it looks like her goals might keep the club in the top-flight. Bethany England in …
Mentalityย
I wanted to write a little in praise of the mentality of the Spurs Women team as I donโt think it gets remarked on nearly enough and I think itโs something we can all be inspired by and learn from. https://twitter.com/AshNev10/status/1632739992073109505?s=20 Ashleigh Neville remains positive following defeat vs Manchester City away.

Spurs Womenโs baffling injury silences
Working out which Spurs Women players are injured has been turning the clubโs fans into detectives. But it doesnโt have to be that way. Other clubs provide detailed updates.

Why We Need More Goals
Since we joined the Super League Spurs have not been a high scoring side. We surprised many in our first season by finishing safely in 7th. We scored only one goal in a win or draw 4 times and never more than 2 goals in any game in that 15 game truncated league season, keeping …
Ria is Out. What does this Mean for Spurs?
On Saturday April 9th in Townsville Australia in the fifteenth minute of a dramatic friendly between New Zealand and Australia womenโs teams Ria Percival went down.
