Re: The objective for the rest of the season

We’ve just got 4 points from our last 2 games. Muric is back in goal. There’s a good chance that Forest will get deducted points and we have them at home in the last game. I remain hopeful that we can do it. Hopeful, not confident ! I’m not sure what I’d prefer though, an exciting end to the season ...

If you continually compare against men then there would never be any female winners. You need to look at someone’s performance within their sport. Previous winners like Paula Radcliffe and Kelly Holmes couldn’t beat the best men I’d love to see Joey try and score 100/100 against Mary Earls by the way.
