It's Manchester City's Day In Sunny Sheffield
Saturday’s Continental Cup Final at Bramall Lane was contested between the current top two in the FA Women’s Super League, Manchester City and Arsenal, and was a predictably tight affair which was settled on penalties in City’s favour after a goalless 120 minutes.
The
victory was deserved as they created the vast majority of what chances there
were and had far more attacking intent than an Arsenal side missing some key
players and who even managed Joe Montemurro admitted played in a far more
reserved manner than he would have liked because of the absences.
Prices
of £10 for Adults (£7.50 during the early-bird phase) and £1 for Concessions
were in place for the game and so a crowd of 2,424 was disappointing and for
the foreseeable future it looks as though the FA Cup Final will be the only
domestic fixture that goes beyond this core audience.
Tickets
for the Wembley showpiece, which takes place on May, are priced at £15 Adults
and free for children.
And
many of the players on show in Sheffield today will be in the England squad
that builds-up to this summer’s World Cup with four home friendly fixtures
against Canada (at Manchester City Academy Stadium on Friday 5 April at 7pm),
Spain (at Swindon Town, Tuesday 9 April, 7pm), Denmark (Walsall FC, Saturday 25
May, 3pm) and New Zealand (Brighton & Hove Albion, Saturday 1 June, 1pm).
Tickets
for each game are priced at £10 Adults, £1 Concessions (£7.50 early-bird offer for
adults if bought before 28 February for the April matches and 10 March for the
other games.

A chance for the hosts to keep alive their play-off hopes against opponents in the relegation zone at present and with League One leaders Luton not in action until Sunday maybe a few Hatters supporters will be in attendance.

Coming Up
A selection of matches over the next few weeks that may be of interest...
This coming weekend sees the FA Vase reach the quarter-final stage and Wembley is now so close for the teams involved that the nerves will be building throughout the week.
It also means some long journeys and Chertsey Town will be travelling from Surrey up to West Auckland FC for their last eight tie.
Admission prices (pay on the gate) are £6 Adults, £4 and £1.
Another competition where quarter-finals are is the FA Youth Cup and for Bury it is a first appearance at this stage for 53 years with the visit of Liverpool on Wednesday 6 March at 7pm sure to attract a big crowd to Gigg Lane.
Prices for the game are £5 Adults and £3 Concessions.
There are two free Manchester United Under-23 matches within a week at Leigh Sports Village as the Reds take on Reading in the Premier League International Cup on Monday 25 February at 7pm and Norwich City in Premier League 2 on Friday 1 March at the same time.
And there's a double bill of Spurs Under-23 action at Stevenage with an International Cup tie against Dinamo Zagreb (slightly more exotic than Reading) on Tuesday 26 February and a Premier League 2 clash with Chelsea on Friday 1 March.
Both matches kick-off at 7pm with admission prices of £5 Adults, £2 Concessions.

A good win for the Diamonds last weekend as over 600 watched a 1-0 success against King's Lynn Town that keeps them firmly in the hunt for a play-off place in the Southern League Premier Division Central.
With 'Pay What You Want' admission against Leiston this Saturday at Hayden Road there is sure to be another good crowd.

World Cup Preparations Gather Pace For England Women
England Women will play four World Cup warm up matches on home soil over the next few months as Phil Neville finalises his plans for France 2019 where his side have been drawn in a group alongside Scotland, Argentina and Japan.
The structure of the Women's game in this country means the national team is very much at the apex of the pyramid so Neville has already been able to take a squad to a training camp in Qatar this year, during a break in FA WSL action and will benefit from more time with his players when they travel to the USA for the SheBelieves Cup at the end of the month.
Competitive friendlies have then been arranged against Canada, at Manchester City Academy Stadium on Friday 5 April and Spain at Swindon Town on Tuesday 9 April.
Preparations will then be fine-tuned with matches against Denmark, at Walsall, on Saturday 25 May and New Zealand at the Amex Stadium on Saturday 1 June.
Early-bird tickets for each fixture are available from the respective host clubs priced at £7.50 for Adults (until 28 February for the two April fixtures and 10 March for the Denmark and New Zealand games).
Concession tickets are just £1.
A number of Neville's potential squad picks will be in action in a big FA Cup tie between Chelsea and Arsenal this coming Sunday, 17 February.
The game kicks off at 2pm at Kingsmeadow and all categories of tickets are priced at just £3 if purchased in advance. Adult tickets will cost £6 on the day.

Under-23 Update
Although Under-23 football is not to everyone’s taste, perceived as it often is as lacking a competitive edge, it can provide an affordable way to catch a match at a big stadium and with the occasional big-name player taking part.
The main competition at Under-23 level is Premier League 2 which is split into two divisions of 12 teams each.
One of the rules of the competition is that 'each club must host at least three league matches at their main stadium during the course of the season, which helps to enhance the matchday experience for the players and fans.'
And Swansea City have a trio of games scheduled for the Liberty Stadium between now and the end of the season which will all be free admission with donations very welcome to the Teenage Cancer Trust.
The fixtures are against Everton this coming Monday (4th February), against West Ham United on Monday 11th March and Tottenham Hotspur on Monday 15th April.
Leigh Sports Village offers free admission to Manchester United Under-23 matches and there are games scheduled against Norwich City on Friday 1st March and Wolverhampton Wanderers on Friday 26th April.
United's remaining home fixture, against West Bromwich Albion on Friday 5th April is currently due to be played at Old Trafford where these games are usually free admission on the night.
At present there are also matches scheduled for the King Power Stadium, Anfield, the Amex, Stamford Bridge and the Emirates among others between now and the end of the campaign.
The official Premier League website has a good fixture guide but keep an eye on the websites and social media pages of the home clubs as fixtures can be changed at short notice.
