Another WSL weekend that wasn't short on shocks! In the battle to decide the one true English Second City, both Manchester sides (City & United) convincingly beat both Birmingham clubs (Blues & Villa) and that race for third place heats up. Plus, Lionesses fans must be happy seeing those performances from Galton and Stanway! Leicester City continue to spice up that relegation fight with a 1-0 win over the struggling Brighton and we get a proper London derby at The Hive! Sponsored by FotMob
We're back for 2024! Two WSL gameweeks of the year are down, so lets review how clubs have started the second half of the season! Viv scores her first goal back, Lauren James is on fire, City keep winning and United are, well, United. Plus, crucial wins for Leicester City and West Ham United.

It's that time again, our Christmas Plonkcast! It's our final podcast of 2023 and a chance to provide a festival review of the WSL season so far. Which manager is in our Christmas stocking? Who's been the most helpful elf? Who's our Christmas pudding and who's been our Christmas cracker? Proudly sponsored by FotMob
With another international break coming, the WSL reminded us what we'll be missing - 26 goals across 6 games! Even better, 2 were from the returning Beth Mead. Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City continue their free-scoring ways, Liverpool and Man U get back on track and the league's mid/lower league teams are consistently inconsistent. Plus, we talk about future potential WSL/Championship changes and investment.

One month into the 2023/24 Barclays Women's Super League and the Nations League has butted in! At least it gives us a chance to take stock of the first 4 gameweeks. We talk through the first month of the season; who has surprised, who has underwhelmed and who can stop Willie Kirk's Leicester City?
It's been a slow start for Arsenal, Villa and one or two others but our Manchester City & Chelsea title race prediction is looking very promising. Plus, Brighton's stadium plans, Marc Skinner's UWCL comments and we spin the 'Wheel of Doom' to get our new Booze from a Boot (new forfeit to be confirmed!) goalscorers for the season.

We’re through those nervy quarter-finals, and we've only just got our breath back. All 4 games couldn’t have been much tighter; an extra-time battle between Spain & Netherlands, a nervy finish in Sweden v Japan, a long penalty shootout between Australia & France and a comeback England win against Colombia. We review it all and preview the scary semi-finals.

The Round of 16 didn’t disappoint, unless you’re a WoSo fan. Commiserations to the U.S who will be sipping tea all the way home against a seismic penalty shootout against Sweden. England on the other hand undeservedly snuck through against an impressive Nigeria side.
Upsets, penalties, VAR drama and 19 goals across 8 games. We’ve lots to catch you up on. Plus, we preview the tasty WWC Quarter Finals. Spain v Germany, Japan v Sweden, Australia v France and England v Colombia - all crackers!
