She Kicks, issue 48, July 2018 pp.4–5

Lucy Bronze becomes the first English player to win the BBC Women’s Footballer of the Year, voted by supporters worldwide and ahead of Lieke Martens and Sam Kerr (Australia), and says she really did not think she would. The FA confirms the make-up of the restructured leagues, with West Ham straight into an eleven-team top tier and a Casey Stoney-managed Manchester United in a fourteen-team Championship. Jess Fishlock and Sara Booth take Queen’s Birthday Honours, Fishlock’s work for the LGBT community recognised alongside her football. Manchester City launch the league’s first sleeve partnership, Notts County Women are relaunched a year after the collapse, and a Scottish Cup tie between Blackburn United and Ayr United finishes 10-9 after extra time.
