Ah so it was a video of the actual goal? No wonder it was taken down
Women's Pre-season - last mystery game now played
- Thread starter RedPamie
- Start date
Inevitable really. Oh well, another 4 weeks then they won't be able to hide them. 
They could embargo the full first season at this rate.Inevitable really. Oh well, another 4 weeks then they won't be able to hide them.
It must be funny for the women's teams who've been fighting for years for every retweet, Instagram like and friendly fan site. United show up and go round deleting copyright material, closing unofficial accounts and sticking an embargo on every piece of news. Truly, United are treating the women's team like part of the club from Day One!
I am actually hoping that MUTV are recording some of the pre-season to do a nice warm up show to drum up some trade for the first official home match we play.

Wait what I missed the video of the goal 
Was deep in work last night. Or else I would have downloaded the video and posted here for eternity
@muller please download it next time, we have to be creative if the club keeps doing this.

It really is a concerted effort to keep it all hidden which is going above and beyond anything I've seen in football before.
I really can't get over how pleased I am that we have finally entered the womens game. The sport is growing and we've got the name, the badge and the resources to support them properly and make stars in the game.
Since United are once again selling kits for infants, I might have to get one for my little girl. My Nephew has 7 on his back (he's 18 months old haha) so I might got for 11 for my girl. Shes not even a year old quite yet!
Incidentally. As kids my brother and I had 4 or 5 United shirts each. Not once did any of them get a name or number put on the back. First grandchild comes along and our dad gets it done for the kid!!
It's why we should be doing it.
Good news indeed to get the striker going early. Sounds as though Sigsworth bagged a couple herself?
She needs to be told it’s not the first United women goal, though, and not the first United team. Her predecessors are an important part of the story.

Expected but still frustrating.
How long is this gonna go on for?
We'll have to chip in and get a drone

I'm in.Could we attach a little “Jose out” banner to it?We'll have to chip in and get a drone
Was wondering earlier when the "Jose out" thing will reach the women's team section of Redcafe.
Bloody hell, never realised you can get 'em from Aldi for under £50, so i'm in as well, just don't put me in charge of steering it

even for the development squad match!£50 for a drone? Value for money!
Well, at least we now know that we've got reserves/U21 team or whatever in place, and we're calling it the Development Squad. I guess the next big question we get answered on that side will be, "So are we joining the FA Development League structure."Tweet

I'm In. Also not to be put in charge of steering.Fixtures out on 1st August.
The Continental Tyres League Cup, our first official competitive competition, begins on the weekend of 18-19 August.
Also.. can't officially confirm, but supposedly a leaflet was issued regarding the women's team ticket prices, along with the distribution of Season Tickets for the men's team. They look very reasonable.. 6 pounds for a game!

The ticket prices are fair and good value for the money.
When my local women’s club was in their prime they had four world class and one superstar player starting every game , we won the CL that year, we paid £9/game. If I remeber correctly the highest paid player earned approx £10k/month and average salary for the whole team was close to £3k/month. That year they had roughly a attendance of 7k/game. One of the best women’s team ever.
Uniteds women’s team should look for 10k spectators/game as their first goal. United has the marketing infra structure to make this possible.

I'd be all over that season ticket if I didn't live 115 miles away.
Isn't the average attendance something like 1000 at the moment? if so, 10,000 is a huge leap.
Yep. City has the biggest League crowds in England and they get around 2000. Their ground is a lot easier to get to for most Mancunians as well.
I'm not sure how many matches I'll be able to get to, but given the price and the relative costs I will buy a season ticket. So they've obviously pitched it right for me, and I'm sure that will encourage me to get to more matches to make sure I'm getting my money's worth.
Great value, in my opinion. There should be a real buzz around this first season, it'll be a fun experience.

Looks like the girls got some work out and conceded some goals too
I'm not a fan of boys vs girls here but maybe they really need game time hence this solution.
Why the feck has our club allowed themto publicise the result? Are they complete fecking idiots?

I think the Academy92 lads just blabbed. I'd have thought they were asked to keep the outcome quiet the same way our women, and the Liverpool/Blackburn teams have done in the other pre-season stuff.
The only reason for playing behind closed doors is to keep the heat off and the only reason for women/girls to play lads teams is to play a team that's faster and stronger than you. It's not supposed to be contest, it's supposed to be a challenge and a chance to practice.

I mean I suppose it should be interms of an agreement or something? What's the use of playing behind closed door friendlies then.
Did you guys see one of their goals? They also posted the video. I'm not sure it's supposed to be published. The boy made fun of Alex Greenwood nonetheless. Oh well.
The pitch
It's done. So the girls/women get the taste of being Manchester United players.

I hope they get relegated\
Bit OOT but
I think it’s a disgrace they let the result even be published.
Fair play to the ladies and hope this makes them con together as a team.

eh? what are we, the mafia?
The state of some of those replies. The tweet itself is pretty shocking too given one of the lad's is clearly gripping his cock while pulling a smug face.Tweet

Some of those lads look about twelve.
Seriously annoyed these results were allowed to be published.
Why hasn't the club contacted them to remove these posts? I have no doubt they were clearly instructed to keep the results private.
Hope there are consequences to this.

I doubt there will be any consequences, except we won't invite them (or accept an invitation) to play another closed doors friendly.
As soon as the tweet was made, it was game over really. Hilarious bantz for the lads involved and the twitter trolls, bloody annoying for anyone interested in the women's team.
