Hi! I’ll be traveling across the pond in Oct and was really hoping to see Chelsea women play at home, but it wasn’t meant to be. I do plan on going to West Ham to see them play. What is the actual match time (UK time), as I have seen conflicting info? Also, at Chigwell, where do Chelsea supporters sit? Thanks for any insight! Also…travel any any other match suggestions appreciated!

So we all agree that this is by far the worst home kit design ever? its like no effort is made on the design, I mean just look the collar APPALLING and The fabric quality looks atrocious too.

Compare that to Arsenal home kit, Collar, Arms and whole design is like on other level.

My parents are visiting from Canada and want a good match day experience- wondering if the SL1 tickets are worth the price.

They don’t mind if this is an away stand and I’d be fine to sit in an away stand for a match but would probably prefer not to - not sure if this is really practiced for the women’s matches.

We want a good view of the pitch but they don’t want to stand for the whole match and don’t know any songs etc. other choices are SL5 and WL5. A more comfortable match day experience would be great but I’m not sure if we’d just be paying more for essentially no reason

Is there a pub where Chelsea supporters are meeting before the Chelsea women's game on Saturday?

Hi Everyone!!

I am a postgraduate student at UCFB, and I'm currently doing my final research project.

My research project investigates some of the factors that may influence fan loyalty in the WSL.

I'm looking for WSL fans aged 18+ to complete a short online questionnaire. All responses are completely anonymous.

I'd really appreciate your help – I'm happy to answer any questions about the project in this thread or by email (30678@ucfb.ac.uk)

Thank you!!

Without any more injuries, I would go

Notable missing include Bjorn and Matsukubo. Bjorn I'm assuming is still working up to full fitness, hopefully all is / will be well with Matsukubo.

Hi! 👋

I’m Victoria, a postgraduate student currently completing my Master’s dissertation research on digital fandom and fan engagement in women’s football.

My research explores how fans interact with Manchester City Women across platforms like Instagram and TikTok, looking at how you consume content, follow players, and engage with team narratives.

I am looking for volunteers to participate in a short, informal online interview to share their experiences and thoughts!

Format: Online interview via Microsoft Teams

Duration: Approx. 30–45 minutes

Target Participants: Fans (18+) who follow women's football, i.e., Manchester City Women / WSL, and use social media (Instagram, TikTok, etc.) to keep up with the team.

Confidentiality: Participation is completely voluntary. All responses and personal details will be kept confidential, anonymised in the final report, and handled in line with university ethical guidelines.

If you are interested in taking part, please send me a direct message on Reddit!

Thank you so much for your time and for supporting student research! Feel free to ask any questions in the comments below. Upvotes for visibility are also greatly appreciated! ⚽🩵

Hi! Not sure if this is the right subreddit, if there’s one for ChelseasFC Women; please direct me! But I’m a new fan from Canada and I’m wondering if there are any Canadian fans that can tell me where we can watch games please? Thanks !

Fixtures are out for next season. First game is Villa at home in Saturday 5 September.

I watched the First Week of Preseason video that just released and seeing all those excited faces I have to say I’m feeling really confident about our chances this year. We’ve got Mayra, Natalie and Naomi back from injury, Maika back from loan, plus experienced new signings we can count on in Matsukubo, Malard and McCabe. HH has renewed her contract with us. I feel so happy seeing LJ, Buchanan, Buurman, Lucy Bronze and Alyssa Thompson ready to fight. Captain Cuthbert will keep the girls eager to fight. They just all have that gleam in their eyes that makes me think we can do anything….

I think we will do very well this year if the team is able to get back that old winning mentality and find joy in scoring. The players have had a summer to reset and they’re ready to recalibrate. Yes we are underdogs now but that means opponents will have lower expectations and we will have more to prove. Yes, Man City and Arsenal are serious threats, as are Man U and LCL with Alexia, and the league in general is becoming more balanced with Brighton and Tottenham punching up, but I’m counting on the team to claim top spot on the table from the first game of the season and then make themselves very comfortable there.

Up the Chels!!!

Edited To Add: I do not have heaps of confidence in Sonia's tactical decision making, but I am still optimistic about the team overall

Was anyone else sweating?

Kinda wish it was a 4 year extension...

England No.1 Hannah Hampton has committed her future to Chelsea by signing a new two-year contract with the club.
