I see that the Women's team have just announced the signing of Emma Lawton from Celtic.

They do realise that there are women's leagues outside of Scotland, right?

(I'll caveat this by admitting that I have little/no knowledge of women's football, and would assume that these are just a bunch of decent players who all happen to play in the same country)

The fella they hired Sean Burt is from a Scottish background:

Seems they're using up all his contacts north of the border.

All to do with Sean Burt's connections i'd imagine. And I think I read somewhere the value we get them for costs us less than if we had to recruit from within the WSL2

Basically rescued us last season - Cavanagh and Ashworth-Clifford were a level above what we had previously.

I did wonder that as well - whether the WSPL is 'undeveloped' enough (for want of a better term) that good-quality players can be found there, and bought for lower fees/wages than would be the case from elsewhere.

Excellent, she puts the fear of God into defences and quite frankly me… in a good way.
