I remember the shame so well. Sitting on my bed on a Sunday evening, hot-cheeked and furious with my tears, holding on to the thought that when I was a grownup, I would never cry.

We could barely name a first-team eleven for our last game, filling the bench with kids from the Academy, and that situation hasn’t really changed in the three days since. And so, unsurprisingly, the starting lineup as voted on by the WAGNH Community is the exact same lineup as we had fielded against Spurs on Thursday.
