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 women’s teams Ria Percival went down. There was no contact, it was no-one’s fault. But, unlike the innumerable times this season that we’ve seen Ria get fouled or watched as she’s gone in for a …

Matchday 16: Tottenham vs Manchester City.
After a long wait, our Lilywhites were back in action at the Hive. Tottenham was looking for revenge after defeat to Manchester City in the Conti Cup semi-finals as they continue their search for Champions League football. After last week’s draw to Reading, Tottenham was looking to bounce back by completing a double over Manchester …

Matchday 15: Reading vs Tottenham
After what seems like an eternity, the WSL is back. Tottenham travelled to 6th place Reading as our Lilywhites looked to take third place back from a Manchester United who beat Leicester this weekend 4-0 to go third. Tottenham last took on Reading in September, where our Lilywhites ran out 1-0 winners thanks to a …
Spurs Women fans on the season so far
We’re on International Break with just eight games left in 2021/2. They include some tricky ones: Man City at home; Arsenal away; Chelsea home and away. But we’re lying third in the WSL on 27 points, have already won three more games than we managed in the whole of last season and have long since …
Matchday 14: Birmingham vs Tottenham.
Tottenham travelled to St. Andrew's to meet 12th placed Birmingham City. The last time the two teams met back in September Tottenham ran out 1-0 winner with a goal from Kit Graham. Tottenham was looking to build on last week's 4-0 at the Hive and remain in the hunt for Champion's League football. Highlights of …
Spurs go to Birmingham minus Kit
This weekend Spurs Women travel to St Andrews to face Birmingham City Women. Spurs are on a high after last week’s demolition of Brighton while Birmingham are currently sitting at the bottom of the WSL, on just 4 points, their only win of the season over Arsenal. This is therefore an eminently winnable game. Moreover, …
We’re Back – and it’s a new old Spurs
Freewheeling, high-scoring, clean-sheet maintaining. What’s not to love? We’ll add a full match report soon, but for now this collates video of the four goals from the victory over Brighton that put us a point off of third place in the WSL. What's especially notable is how many different members of the team played critical …
What’s happened to Spurs?
The last five games have seen Spurs Women's worst run form in the 2021/2 season to-date: one win (against Championship opposition), one draw and three losses. More disturbingly, for a team that prided itself on its stinginess in defence, each of the three losses have seen Spurs concede three goals. It could be argued that …
Ria Percival is Massive
Not literally. According to Wikipedia she is just 5 foot 3 inches but Ria's contribution to Spurs this season has been absolutely massive. To start with some stats: Ria has played the full 90 in every one of our first 12 WSL games (along with only Ashleigh Neville and Molly Bartrip). This season she is …
