Leicester City Women

[TornadoShaunUK]

Leicester Women aren't messing about. Adding international quality. Now Janice Cayman, Belgium's most capped international. https://www.lcfc.com/news/3559930?lang=en

 

[taupe]

We're adding some real experience and quality to the squad. It's really heartening to see.

Ashleigh Plumptre leaves

Ashleigh Plumptre Departs LCFC Women

LCFC Women can confirm that defender Ashleigh Plumptre has left the Club following the expiration of her contract at King Power Stadium.

That's a huge surprise, a real downer one too. I can only assume she's going on to somewhere 'better' as she was most certainly one of our better players.

Local player too.

Nah, she's from Nigeria!

 

[jb5000]

One of our own.

A real shame, looking at the players signed so far we seem to be going for real quality but I'd think there'd be a place for her amongst that. No news on her joining anyone else so I'm not going to assue she's anything lined up - hope she gives a good account at the WWC and the offers come in after that

 

[taupe]

Perhaps there are other reasons? I mean, obviously there are numerous possibilities and I'm certainly not about to venture into conjecture. I am just massively surprised and saddened. Ashleigh was one of my favourite players, if not my favourite. I loved the way she'd take the ball forward, she had a real confidence with it. I just can't see that we'd not want for her to stay, she was a hugely important member of the team.

 

[taupe]

Having read Ashleigh's 'goodbye' tweet, the responses to it and some other interviews with her etc, I think it's a possibility that she's moving on to other things entirely. I'm sure we'll find out in good time.

 

[taupe]

Hannah Cain has signed a contract extension, I thought I read somewhere it was for another couple of years but I can't find that now so I'm probably wrong.

Anyone catch the WWC opener? CJ Bott played all 90 minutes in what must count as a shock with the New Zealanders beating Norway, looked solid and contributed to the goal.

 

[taupe]

I've watched NZ the twice now. I thought Bott wasn't her usual self in both. I think she's given a freer role for us and gets forward more. NZ seemed slow in midfield, lethargic even, particularly against Phillipines. I thought Phillipines thorougly deserved their win; they hassled and harried and shut NZ down then took their chance well. I felt chuffed for them.

Another new goalkeeper.

LCFC Women Confirm Lize Kop Signing

LCFC Women has further strengthened the goalkeeping department with the acquisition of former Ajax shot-stopper Lize Kop, subject to league and international clearance.

And I notice that season tickets (for us old gits) are only £31.50 (normally £42.00) - and just £4.00 on the gate. Seems ridiculously cheap

Should be paid the same as the blokes though
