OTD in 1996, Arsenal made a less than ideal start to the new season, losing 1-0 to title rivals Doncaster Belles. This would end up being Pat Pile's last league start for Arsenal, although she went on to have a handful of sub appearances before retiring at the end of the season.

Striker Geena Gordon spent the 2003/04 season with AFC Wimbledon Women playing in both the reserves and first team. Clearly she’s passed on some football genes as her son Zhaviah Campbell has recently been called up to the Jamaica U20 squad! Welcome to WOPA Geena 🔵🟡🤝 #602

This is what women's football looked like in 1972, the same year that the Lionesses played their first-ever official match. Taken in Croydon, we think these photos are from the inaugural 1972/73 season of the Greater London Women’s Football League. 📷:Gerry Cranham
