PRESTON TAKE ALL THREE POINTS IN CONVINCING SHOW

BORROWASH VICTORIA'S ANDERSON ELECTRICAL BOWL WELCOMES THE WPL

Having covered Derby Ladies a few times in the blog so far this will be a short one and for home fans its probably the best.
Derby's first game of the new year at The Anderson Bowl and under a new management team was eagerly awaited but sadly the hosts failed to get out of their own half for much of the first 45 minutes and they found themselves 2-0 down to a convincing Preston North End side.

SOME FIRST HALF DEFENDING FOR THE EWES

With credit to Derby their second half efforts earned them a 2-2 draw in the second 45 minutes but that first half had seen the points disappear back to Lancashire and the final score of 4-2 was certainly a fair reflection on the game.
It was good to see the refreshment cabin was open today at Borrowash and although the ground needs a major tidy up its just good to see football being played here after their problems with ground incursions.

REFEREE ANDREW HARLAND GIVING SOME CLEAR SIGNALS

In praise of Derby Ladies as a club I always enjoy the little programme that is put together for games and its a credit to them with some of the attendances before Christmas being around the mid 30 mark, today was about 50. 
The club have some cracking friendly games approaching against Arsenal and Liverpool and its to be hoped that all local football fans will pop along and give the ladies a cheer on.
As ever PA man Nigel is breath taking and just needs a better system for his undoubted enthusiasm.
Well done Derby County Ladies FC its good to see people making the effort for the women's game.

THAT WILL BE THE REFRESHMENT BAR THEN
