Players and staff now not knowing where they stand with their own lives to fund and all you can come up with is a cliche sexist comment?

Wasn't there some controversy about them to start with - did they take over/replace Lincoln City Ladies or something like that?
I'm glad I don't live in your laugh a minute world Chrisd I'd be on the Prozac...
This franchise model in the women's game doesn't seem to work very well. Using highly subsidised clubs like Man City, Arsenal etc to drag the rest of the teams along with them can't work financially. The Belles stepping in to make up the numbers might not be a good move for them.
What would happen if - lets just say Everton folded 3 days before 2017/18 season started - would the highest placed team relegated replace them or would it be the loosing playoff finalist?Thats what I'm asking. Should the Belles be reinstated to make the numbers up.
Iam with Herman on this one as I found his remark really funny.You can't have a laugh these days at whatever ISM without upsetting the PC storm troppers ,who seem to be a right set of misserable clowns
A winding up order had been issued against the ladies’ club, which was adjourned in March. They had been given until July 3 to pay money owed to HMRC. Two Premier League sides had shown an interest in taking over the business as a going concern, but the FA would not sanction a transfer of licence.

I know The Belles we thrown out of WSL to accomodate Man City, but did n't Notts County come into the equation somewhere in that farce
After accepting applications for WSL1, the FA decided to keep all the clubs currently playing in the Women’s Super League with two exceptions: Lincoln Ladies would be ‘re-franchised’ as Notts County while the Belles would be replaced with Manchester City.
