Yes, but - can she play left back?

4-1 win for the girls today as well, still top of the league.

A great signing.
Good looking too - not that that matters, of course.

Needs a good few Hollands inside her.

Good luck Laura!
If it's the right account I'm looking at she is pregnant? Can't get my head around Instagram, the sycophancy from her posting idyllic pictures seemingly living the dream, to me it's just weird people would do that but then I'm old!

Funnily enough, she is a left back :)

cannot find any reference to Laura joing us :?: only the 2 girls from City "Burnley FC Women are delighted to announce the double signing of both Lois Marley-Paraskevas and Gracie Prior from Manchester City on dual registration deals."

We went to watch yesterday, thought the LB (no3 Paul) was brilliant, as was the number 7, Embley.
Enjoyed it, as did the kids, will definitely get over again.

Good to hear. I’d love to go more but with kids football on Sundays, the 2pm KO and the drive to Leyland I can’t. But great to hear others are.

They’re doing fantastically well and by all accounts some very good signings recently.

I got mixed up too, saw this post and assumed it was one of the City girls that had signed.

It does appear she was at the match yesterday though (maybe just supporting?) and also pregnant. Not sure how long players can play whilst pregnant.

Alethea Paul is pleasing on the eye I must say!

She looks like she’s a good footballer as well ;)

Finished 2-0. All Burnley.

That’s six wins in seven now. Big away game vs Newcastle (who have won all four of their games so far) on Sunday.

JJ was also watching. Nobody is telling me that he’s just in it for the money.
