- In today's #MLSSuperDraft @mplscitysc.bsky.social standout Joe Highfield (college, Portland) went 11th overall to Houston Dynamo! Congrats to Highfield and the Crows on the first round pick!
- We 100% without question support and second everything being said here.
- Today @theleaguefc.bsky.social announced true semi-professional (pro-am) men’s league slated to kick off in 2027.
- Sound the Sirens. There are no unbeaten left in #WSL, following Everton's 1-0 win against Chelsea. #UWCL spots are currently Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United. Graphic courtesy of Fotmob

- Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance and as we do every year we swap our colours to those of the trans flag in honour of those who we’ve lost. Let’s all make sure to do everything we can to promote love & support of our trans friends and make sure they do not become another statistic.

- #WSL Update: Arsenal drop from the ranks of the unbeaten after a loss on the road at Manchester City. The other two unbeaten sides, Chelsea and Manchester United, draw 1-1.
- ESPN breaking the news that @mnaurorafc.bsky.social are continuing on their twin track of high end investors and community owners. The latest to join that first group are Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve and head of business (and former soccer player and coach at college level) Carley Knox.
- #WSL Liverpool goalkeeper Rafaela Borggrafe is under investigation for using discriminatory language towards a team mate during a preseason camp with the club. She has been absent but is now eligible to play for the club this weekend. They are pointless from 2 games.
- Hat tip to London City Lionesses, who secured their first win in #WSL today. The club are currently part of Michele Kang's organization but they were founded in 2019 as the successor to Millwall Lionesses, whose Championship (now WSL2) license they took.
- #WoSo is back underway in England, the first with a fully professional top two tiers. We'll break down the full regulations when they are published, but they are already scary enough to send Blackburn Rovers scuttling back to the amateur ranks despite winning their division last season.
