Last season 2nd got a playoff against 2nd bottom of the league above.

They certainly know how to find the back of the net! Great to see them doing so well and I hope they’re building up a decent support behind them.

Embarrassingly I have to admit I know sod all about the league structure for the ladies, about time I checked it out. 

Will the women keep scoring goals this weekend?  Another win would be nice.

 

Another barrowload of goals from the women today 

Team lines and result.

 

Our final competitive game of 2023 is on Sunday when we host Ayr Utd in the Quarter Final of the Championship & League One Cup.  I hope the women can finish with another win.

 

A big game for the women in January.

 

Inverness Caledonian Thistle Women will face a somewhat different challenge this weekend – hosting Dutch outfit Leeuwarder Zwaluwen.

The match will take place at the Highland Football Academy in Dingwall due to pitch availability, kicking off at noon on Sunday.

It has come about thanks to a connection through Caley Jags defender Janina Morgan, who is half-Dutch and has connections with the north second tier outfit – step five of the overall Dutch women's football pyramid.

Good to see the Manager and one of the players interviewed on Reporting Scotland who featured Sunday’s game against Rangers in the Cup. It will be a tough game for them with Rangers one of the top three teams and two leagues above us. Hopefully they attract a good crowd. Admission is by donation.

Best of luck to them, it’s a very exciting opportunity to play against a top pro side.

Realistically though, is the score going to get into double figures before Rangers hopefully ease off in the second half?

We should be fine so long as we don't accidentally send out the men's team.

Good luck ladies. Hope there's a good crowd there to cheer them on.

9’ | 0-1 Goal. Rangers take the lead through Jane Ross.

20’ | 0-2 Rangers double their lead through Kirsty MacLean

27’ | 0-3 Goal. Sarah Ewens makes it 3-0 to Rangers with a close range tap-in.

33’ | 0-4 Jane Ross makes it 4-0 to Rangers.

37’ | 0-5 Lizzie Arnot makes it 5-0 to Rangers.

45’ | 0-6 Goal. Brogan Hay makes it 6-0 to Rangers.

Ended at a dozen. Tough one for the ladies but they'll be back.

THAT'S PLENTY!!!

Very tough game this afternoon and a not altogether unexpected scoreline given the gulf in resources. Fantastic to see over 1000 in attendance though. 

Hope the result doesn't shatter their confidence.

I hope they’ve learned from the experience. All the women will be used to seeing the weekly coverage on BBC and would be aware of the standard of the Prem clubs, especially the big 3. I thought maybe 12-0 when I saw the draw but scores like this happen in the prem as well.

To put our ladies result into perspective

Rangers beat Dundee United 10-0 today while Celtic beat Montrose 9-0. Both games in the Premiership.

Due to the horrendous weather we have faced this week and the weather warning in place for Sunday we requested this game to be postponed which was granted by the SWF. A new date will be confirmed soon ☃️ 🐧 ⛷️ ❄️

Great write up for the Women's Academy awards evening on Sunday.

A return after the break for the women with a home game on Sunday against Rossvale.

 

Kayleigh MacKenzie scored one goal for ICT today and were drawing one goal each till Goals for Rossvale in the 96th and 97th minute means the 3 points go back to Glasgow.

 

An away game for the women tomorrow.

 

Well done to Kayleigh
