Our preparations for the second half of the 2023/24 campaign continue apace...

Gareth Taylor‘s side are back at the CFA after a deserved rest over the festive period.

Our last competitive fixture saw us beat Everton 4-1 at Walton Hall Park, ensuring we signed off for 2023 on a high.

City’s return to action comes on Sunday 14 January when we face Championship side Durham in the Women’s FA Cup, before hosting Liverpool in the Barclays Women’s Super League seven days later.

It all points towards an exciting 2024 for Taylor’s young team, as we find ourselves in the thick of the WSL title race.

City currently sit second in the table, just three points off league leaders Chelsea, while our Continental Cup campaign goes down to the wire against Manchester United at the end of the month.

There’s plenty to look forward to, but the players know the importance of hard work on the training ground in order to maintain that promising start to the season.
