It seems like an age since we last played a game here that being a 3-0 win against Coventry Utd. Our visitors today Sunderland make the long journey down from up north in what should hopefully be a fantastic spectacle and one hopefully, come the final whistle we can take something out of.
On our side of things last week we visited Bristol City in the Conti Cup and although the performance and score line was disappointing it gave us the chance to make 9 changes from our away win at Blackburn and give valuable minutes to the squad.
I would also like to congratulate Natalia and Shauna on their England U19 selection this past week along with Elise and Anna who joined up with Wales ahead of their World Cup qualifier, and not to forget Chloe Arthur who like Elise and Anna was called up for Scotland to face Austria in there qualifier for the world Cup. Congratulations ladies.
Lastly, I hope you will all enjoy today’s game, which will be a hardfought contest, but one the players will be ready for and wanting to build on the successful start we’ve had to the league.
As always thank you all for your support it means so much to us and hopefully, we can send you all home happy.
Best Dean

Like a lot of players I got into football at a young age because my older brother played. I used to watch his team and I’d run to return the ball whenever it went off the pitch, which led to a coach asking if I’d join one of the younger boys’ side: AFC Wasps.
Anna Filbey
From there I joined Queens Park Rangers and then Arsenal, where I spent eight years developing. After a few appearances with the first-team I made the move to Tottenham Hotspur. Controversial, I know…
At Spurs I had a six-month loan to Celtic, which after the initial disappointment of being loaned out was a really enjoyable time. At first it was quite a stressful period and I had a few loan deals fall through on deadline day, but choosing to move to Scotland was the best decision I could have made; the manager, staff, teammates and fans made the transition very easy.
The standard is high in the Scottish Women’s Premier League, which is mostly professional teams playing quite aggressive football. Celtic were a ball-playing team which suits
Crystal Palace Women broke club records in 2021/22, and are looking to do the same this season. In each edition, we hear directly from one of the squad, with Wales international Anna Filbey explaining her career to date. Age 23 Joined Summer 2022 Position Defender Apps 5 Goals 0 Career highlights Representing Wales in a World Cup qualifying cam paign that has taken the Red Dragons to the playoffs, the furthest the women’s team have ever been. Take note of Filbey is able to start an attack from the back with the ball at her feet. Defensively, she is committed to guarding her net, putting her body on the line when needed.

My career so far has taken me to three leagues and each club has taught me a lot, which I’m hoping to bring Crystal Palace to achieve what we want this season
my style, and I ended up playing further forward there – scoring 11 goals. The experience put a smile back on my face.
My career so far has taken me to three leagues and each club has taught me a lot, which I’m hoping to bring Crystal Palace to achieve what we want this season. It was an easy decision to move here because the club’s ambitions match mine, and I think the manager and staff want to instil the same values I believe in.
But I did move from Charlton, which isn’t the easiest thing to do. Both sets of fans are very passionate, so I didn’t know what the Palace crowd would be like with me, but they gave me a bit of banter and welcomed me with open arms, which I really appreciated. Whenever I played against Palace before I noticed the fans and the support they created behind the goal, so it’s great to be on their side now! As a team want to put on a show and play the most exciting football we can for you to watch. So please come down and support us; it really does make a difference.
As a team we want to win the league while developing week on week, and my individual goals tie in with that: I want to help in any way I can and become the best player I can be, which is very possible in the environment here.
Internationally I represented England at several youth levels but switched to Wales after Jayne Ludlow, Arsenal legend and then-Wales manager, asked
if I’d join a senior camp. I’d grown up watching Jayne and was blown away by her offer.
I haven’t looked back since committing to Wales and would make the same decision over and over if I had to again; I feel like I belong there and it’s an honour to represent them. I love every second.
We competed in the World Cup qualifying play-offs at the start of the month, which is the furthest we’ve been as a nation. I wrote this before knowing the outcome, but it would be massive if things continue as we believe they can for Wales Women, and the pride we’d feel representing the country in a major tournament would be indescribable
Whenever I played against Palace before I noticed the fans and the support they created behind the goal, so it’s great to be on their side now!
