    Emma Hayes looking like she'll be bowing out with no trophies then.

    City still have a tricky game with Arsenal but they should win it from here.

    Tickets turned up this morning. I'm finally going to an FA Cup final.

    Made it very clear on these forums over the years how much I value the cups and how the FA Cup was largely the "big one" for me growing up. Somewhat bitter that my (American) wife's first game is going to be an FA Cup final.

    Where's the 30 odd years of suffering and misery? :no:

    They were 1-0 up until the 89th minute. Then two goals in three minutes means it's back alive for Chelsea who play an already relegated Bristol later. They'll no doubt be looking at that game as a chance to close the goal difference gap down. It's currently at 7.

    City slipped up. Chelsea have a chance again if they can win their games in hand.

    Chelsea currently 8-0 up. Title race looking very interesting suddenly.

    Nauseating coverage the way they're fawning over Hayes. Can't believe she was never charged for the incident with Eidevall.

    anyone else would have been, Sky claim they want to help the league grow but the only time they put teams like Leicester on for example are in games they are likely to be dominated, how does that help the lesser teams grow?

    Are you going ?

    BBC1 are showing it Live a 2.30 kick off so I'll give it a watch & hopefully a result in 90 mins as Bayern v Wolfsburg is Live on Sky Sports Mix at 4.30 so don't want a clash .

    Cracking goal from Toone & great time just before half time & should make for a good 2nd half albeit temperatures of around 30° pitch side can't be nice .

    Bit of a canter for Man U finishing 4-0 but felt sorry for Spurs GK , but if you p*ss about at the back you'll make mistakes & get punished , at Posh we know this all so well .

    76K in attendance , probably more than at Old Trafford this afternoon & if you're a fan base & in the East Stand once again the luck is with you .

    I did.

    Great timing for the first goal. We just needed to bring Toone down and take a booking that close to half time.

    I thought we came out and looked better at the start of the second half but if you can't defend set pieces you're going to struggle in any game.

    Horrific and uncharacteristic mistake from Spencer for the third goal.

    Ultimately United were the better team over 90 but I don't think it was a 4-0 game.

    Miedema to leave end of the season. Apparently not the most popular decision in the world.

    All time WSL leading scorer, still only 27. Will be interesting to see if she remains in England considering she's in a relationship with Beth Mead.

    She's welcome at Spurs if she wants to stay in North London :)

    big woop some of us have done that since we were in the league...


    not a dig at Arsenal but there really is no reason for clubs not to be doing it, if only to get goal line tech in WSL, the refs need to full time now too

    Chelsea were always going to win the game in hand v Spurs but given the title will come down to goal difference it'll probably be disappointing they've only won 1-0 tonight.

    United still on the piss celebrating the FA Cup win.

    Gift-wrapped Chelsea the title with that first half.
