I would imagine it's been discussed as Sir Simon wants us to integral in the community.
Just a cost issue probably?

No idea. Think they're in the equivalent of the NWCL.

Currently 2nd in the league.
Basically equivalent to being in EFL League Two in men's football.

They used to play at Wyre Villa. Not sure where they play now.
Mac Barlow has been around for most of the time they have been in existence too.
There is a Wikipedia article with more details though it doesn't appear to be up to date.

North London derby today there appeared to be no one there. The exposure the women’s game gets for the actual number of people interested in it is massively off kilter.

It has not stopped the men's team from doing well since 2004 though?
