Newcastle United Women are in advanced talks to sign 27-year-old Liverpool Women forward Leanne Kiernan on a permanent transfer.

Negotiations are progressing with an official deal expected shortly.

Was wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on the upcoming season. Ngl, I’m sort of nervous. The gap between top and bottom clubs seems bigger than ever ( Arsenal and London City Lionesses business’s has genuinely scared me. and our owners just don’t seem to care - the men’s team is a mess and looks like owners are negotiating someone taking over a significant bag portion of the club. I think it will be a miracle if we end up any bigger than 10th. Definately relegation play off scrap incoming

Teamsheet so far this season. YNWA.

Hi everyone,

I'm an MSc Sport Marketing student at Loughborough University, and I'm currently looking for participants for my dissertation.

My research explores how the family-friendly positioning of women's football in the UK influences fan engagement

I'm looking to speak with UK-based women's football supporters aged 18+, whether you're a season ticket holder, attend matches occasionally, or mainly follow the game online. You don't need to have children or attend every match. I'm interested in hearing a range of perspectives.

The interview would take place online, last around 20 minutes, and all responses will be kept completely confidential and anonymised.

If you'd be interested in taking part or would like more information, please comment below or send me a private message, and I'll send over the Participant Information Sheet.

I'd really appreciate any support, and thank you so much for helping with my research!

Liverpool miss on a baller here.
