The Roses were missing Ellie , Evie , Katie , Lily and Poppy for this match. An early KO in Rugby, a roadblock on the A5… it felt like it might be one of those days in the winter chills at Butlin Road before we even got there. The Roses started well but after 10 minutes Rugby scored with an unfortunate deflection off a Roses defender from a powerful shot which left Lyla with no chance. 1-0 quickly became 2 when a cross found the lively Rugby Town winger who finished high i

A tough one today — our first taste of defeat in a long while. We looked a little unsettled in the first half and struggled to deal with the physical side our opponents brought. A few errors and a couple of scrappy goals left us chasing the game. But the boys came out firing after the break. They showed real character, winning battles, putting in big tackles, and moving the ball around with confidence. We pulled it back to 3–2 and looked like we might complete the comeback, b
