ahead of the FA Women's National League Northern Premier Division
fixture.
Manager's Thoughts...
Manager Sam Griffiths spoke to RamsTV following Wednesday night's 2-1 home loss to Stoke City at the Don Amott Arena.
While she was disappointed with the defeat against the Potters, only a few days after the impressive 2-1 success at local rivals Nottingham Forest, Griffiths felt there were encouraging signs to build on from the performance of her side.
She said: “We just need to look forward now and prepare for another
big game on Sunday at Huddersfield.
“This is a tough league, we know
that, and there are no easy matches.”
From The Dressing Room...
Versatile performer Charlotte Steggles, who can play in defence or midfield, is confident the Ewes have what it takes to bounce back with a win this weekend.
Steggles spoke to RamsTV following the 2-1 loss to Stoke City on Wednesday and says the sole focus of the squad is on offering an immediate response against the Terriers.
She said: “Our focus now is on Sunday’s
game at Huddersfield.
“We’ll go back to the drawing board, look where we
went wrong against Stoke and how we can get a win to bounce back.”
The Season So Far...
Derby County Women have two wins and four defeats to their name in the league so far this term. They started the season with a 2-1 home defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers, before bowing out of the League Cup at the Determining Round stage with a 4-2 loss on home turf against West Bromwich Albion.
A 3-2 loss at Liverpool Feds was then followed up with a 7-1 hammering of Stourbridge for their first away win of the season, prior to losing 1-0 to promotion favourites Newcastle United on home turf.
A 5-0 away win at Doncaster Rovers Belles in the First Round of the National League Plate earlier this month and the impressive 2-1 success at Nottingham Forest last Sunday was followed up with a 2-1 reverse aganist Stoke City at the Don Amott Arena on Wednesday evening.
