    Galway Women withdraw from WNL

    Rather depressing news from the West today, as Galway WFC decide not to apply for a license in next year's WNL. Still, the trend both here and in Europe has been towards the merger of male and female clubs, so perhaps Galway United themselves might step into the breach?

    GUFC issue a statement saying they can't meet the financial burden of the club alone, but are seeking shareholders to ensure a women's football club continues:

    Any update on whether GUFC will take over the women's football club? Felt sorry for them losing to cork last weekend. Must be grim finishing the season knowing you won't exist at the end of it.
