Summary
On this bonus edition of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Pippa talk about the recent decision to terminate the WSL season with the Guardian's women's football writer Suzy Wrack. Have the FA lacked ambition with the decision to terminate? Does it reflect badly on England and its commitment to women's football that it hasn't found a way to return? The panel discusses the decision in-depth.
In Germany, the Frauen Bundesliga will return this weekend, however and to talk about Germany's approach to getting women's football back up and running, Tim is joined by Ellen Hanisch from the Frauen reden uber fussball [FURF] podcast. Tim and Ellen chat about the current situation in the Bundesliga table, how Germany was able to get the show back on the road for women's teams, the situation with USV Jena who are not allowed to train yet but will be asked to play and some of the games and players to look out for.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to another episode of the Arsenal Women Askcast on AskBlog.com. |
| 0:24.0 | The best podcast about the Arsenal Women's Team because it is the only podcast dedicated |
| 0:28.4 | solely to the Arsenal Women's Team. You're getting two episodes this week. We have one earlier |
| 0:32.6 | this week with Rich Labrity and Catherine Eto looking back at Arsenal's ladies domestic dominance |
| 0:38.0 | of the 1990s and the naughties as well. But Pippa and I thought that given that there's some big |
| 0:43.7 | news in the WSL this week around the cancellation of the season, we thought we owed you another podcast, |
| 0:50.4 | so that's what we've done. Pippa, welcome back. Hello, it feels like it's been ages. |
| 0:56.0 | How has lockdown been treating you? Well, I'm kind of, I mean, lockdown, because I'm a key worker, |
| 1:02.2 | I've been working majority of it, so it's been quite an awkward, weird time for me because I feel |
| 1:07.0 | like I'm putting my life on the line, but I still feel a sense of normality, but it's been it's still |
| 1:11.3 | been crazy. How about you? Yeah, yeah, okay, okay. It's like that things kind of all right for me. |
| 1:17.4 | Haven't haven't changed hugely. I've been able to spend a little bit of time at home. I'm |
| 1:22.3 | recording this from what used to be my office, but is literally turning into a nursery around my ears. |
| 1:28.8 | And my wife is literally putting something together about two yards away from me at the moment. |
| 1:34.4 | So if you hear any like clanking in the background, that's her like putting together what I think |
| 1:39.5 | is basically a medicine draw. So yeah, what used to be my office now has pink curtains and a |
| 1:45.2 | cot. But there we go. There we go. Life is about to change. Anyway, without further ado, |
| 1:51.5 | let's start by introducing our first guest for this week, I guess this month. And welcome back, |
| 1:58.8 | Suzy Rack from the Guardian. Suzy, thanks for joining us. Hey, both. So Suzy, we've had big news this |

| 2:12.5 | the cancellation or the decision not to continue with the WSL season. Suzy, perhaps can you just give |
