I asked @astonvillfc Women's boss Natalia Arroyo what ONE thing they needed to do well to beat United today. "Score more goals than them", she quipped. As a Utd fan I'm gutted about the result. As an admirer of Villa, I'm pleased they've show how good they can be.

"Our teacher spent the lesson sneering at the idea of girls playing football." It's 1992, I'm 16 & we get to play football at school. In PE. Progress. Except it isn't. Every missed pass or miskick & our (male) teacher is smirking. From my book, "She Can Kick It".
