Chelsea Ladies vs Manchester City Women (WSL1) Thur 1st Feb 2018 KO 19:00 GMT (19:00 UK Time)

Featured Replies

The ladies currently lie second in the WSL 1 table, two points behind a Manchester City Women side who have won every game they've played this season. That includes domestic and European matches. City visit Chelsea this Thursday evening in what, even this early, could be a title decider. This is a must win fixture for the Blues. Defeat would see us fall five points behind a team which just doesn't look like it's going to drop 5 points all season. Even a draw would, realistically, leave us needing to win at City later in the season to retain any title hopes.

Chelsea Ladies home games are played at Kingsmeadow Stadium, 422A Kingston Road, Kingston Upon Thames KT1 3PB

Tickets are £6 adults, £3 juniors/seniors and will be available from the Kingsmeadow stadium box office on the night or from usual Chelsea ticket outlets. If you can get down there to support the ladies you'll enjoy the quality of football on display.

For those who can't make it, the match is live on BT Sport

BBC Highlights of our latest fixture. (Everton at Home)

My 10 year old daughter who is a great defensive midfield player would love to one day play for Chelsea ladies. She plays for Hollingbury Hawks here in Brighton at the moment but one day maybe her dream will come true. So good to see just how much ladies football has developed in recent years.

Wow best of luck to her. I've got a 13 year old niece who plays for the Sussex girls U15 rugby side. It's great to see how women's sport as a whole has developed. I sat next to a family of Chelsea supporters at the recent CLFC fixture against Arsenal. The thing is they live in the 'wrong' part of London so their youngster is a part of the Arsenal Ladies youth development structure. Best of luck to the young lady, I hope she fulfils her ambitions but come on people, you've got to think of these things before you move into a property!!

P.S. Love the scarf. I was there the first time we played in that kit, an Anglo Scottish Cup tie against Fulham at Craven Cottage. We were bad that day, and bad every other time we wore it as far as I remember. I didn't get that version of the scarf. I got the silk effect red one with white lettering, and green tassels. Dear, oh dear.

Very much agree with you on the development of women's football and am pleased that your niece is doing so well at rugby here in sunny Sussex. I remember the silk version of the scarf  which was popular at the Bridge when I was a teenager in the Shed. My friend knitted the one i am wearing  in my picture as I lost my original one  years ago and had not been able to locate another commercially. Having said that I was at the Newcastle game yesterday and walking out of the East Stand afterwards there was another Chelsea fan wearing one. We both had a good laugh and a bit of a reminisce about it lol.

White wall by any chance? I was there every home game for years and years.

i was a bit more towards the middle and always stood on the ledge above the gangway that ran along the length of the Shed about half way up. I always made sure the crush barrier was behind my back after having been squashed against one my first time in the shed following a knees up mother brown surge. After that when the surge came down I would just step off onto the gangway and survive intact lol
