Boro women

Two goals quickly make it 3-0. Cheadle won’t be losing this one now. Also helping their goal difference.
 
Cheadle beat Barnsley 3-0.

Other results:

Huddersfield 2-1 Leeds
Norton 2-3 Stockport

With Leeds losing, I think it’s a 3 horse race for the title. Cheadle (39 points), Boro (36 points with 1 game in hand over Cheadle) and Chorley (33 points with 1 game in hand) left in it.

Cheadles remaining games. Huddersfield still stands as the most difficult game but let’s hope Doncaster, Norton and Fylde can also do us a favour.

Not seen this reported on the Boro site but Boro loanee Georgia Gibson made her international debut yesterday for UAE against Bangladesh and she scored twice. The Newcastle website mentions her living in Dubai as a child so I’m guessing that’s the link for citizenship. Boro women's Instagram has the link to the goals….

From what I can tell, just living in the UAE as a child would not give her the right to UAE citizenship but it would explain why they might have granted her citizenship, probably under the special achievement category, in that it would have made her eligible to play for the UAE under FIFA's eligibility rules.

These state that one of the ways a player over the age of 18 can avoid having to live in a country for five years after gaining citizenship before becoming eligible, is to have lived there as a child, either for at least three years before the age of ten or five years after the age of ten.
 
Does anyone know if there are any plans to play any of the final games at the Riverside? If it’s a possible promotion decider I think they would get a big crowd.
I don’t follow the women’s game at all other than looking at Boro scores occasionally but would definitely go to back the women in a game like that and I’m sure lots of others would too. And I’m sure it would grow the overall fan base for the future.
 
I expect the final home game of the season against Doncaster will be at the Riverside (13th April) if they have still have a chance of promotion.
