Julie Raffel admitted South Shields Women found things “tough” against AFC Fylde Women in their Adobe Women’s FA Cup exit on Sunday. The lasses had high hopes heading into the First Round Proper tie following convincing performances against Washington FC Women, Fleetwood Town Wrens and Wallsend BC Women in all competitions previously, but it wasn’t to be. AFC Fylde came out comfortable 5-0 winners at 1st Cloud Arena. “Yeah, Sunday was a tough one,” she shared. “We didn’t real

🏆 We have been drawn against Dunston UTSFC at home in the Second Round of the FA Trophy, with the tie set to be played on Saturday, 15th November.

South Shields Women exited the Adobe Women’s FA Cup at the First Round Proper stage in a 5-0 defeat to AFC Fylde Women on Sunday. The opening goal was one that was scored in quick time, with the visitors going one goal to the good through Hollie Kelsh-Ridge in the third minute of the game.

South Shields recorded their first defeat of the Enterprise National League North campaign against Macclesfield on Saturday.

Results elsewhere mean Shields remain top of the table on goal difference with a game in hand over AFC Fylde. Ian Watson’s side began the game well, though momentum shifted in the hosts’

The Mariners take on the Sead
