Summary
Brighton did a little bit of a dirty on Chelsea at the weekend as they held the league leaders to a draw. So with Chelsea's lead now at five points, is the title race back on?! Clo reckons there’s a cool draft coming through that slightly ajar door…
Meanwhile, the WSL managerial merry-go-round has been in full swing after Liverpool parted ways with Matt Beard. Then just 24 hours later, Crystal Palace followed suit by sacking Laura Kaminski! Clo’s obviously here with some sage advice: “Don’t go into management, kids!”
Plus, we weigh in on the leaked WPLL proposals to scrap relegation in the WSL and discuss why it’s caused just a bit of a stir…
