With Arsenal having to move their women’s Champions League game against Bayern Munich at the Emirates to make way for a men’s Carabao Cup game, Matt and Maggie ask the question: are clubs being too ambitious about playing games in “main” stadia?
They also look at the pros and cons of bundling and unbundling commercial rights for women's football properties, and answer a fantastic question about how they would spend a hypothetical cheque for £10 million.

Wrexham's Hollywood owners want its women's team to become "the best in the world". But if they are serious about achieving that lofty ambition, it's going to cause some serious headaches at a league, national association and international federation level.
Matt and Maggie explain why. They also dissect the new broadcast deal for the Women’s Super League, and look at the women's football strategies released by UEFA and The Football Association - why they’ve been so public, what they're planning, and who's going to be holding them accountable.

This week Maggie and Matt are joined this week by their first ever guest, Polly Bancroft.
Polly is currently CEO of Grimsby Town - whose men’s team are in League 2, and whose women’s team play regionally in the sixth tier - and spent several years heading up women’s club football at the highest level, including Manchester Utd and Brighton.
And they are only taking listener questions, which include how far off clubs are from player trading being a viable revenue stream, and whether clubs in the Championship really don’t want to get promoted to the WSL.

With the WPL last week saying they are going to test the waters of dropping the booze ban in the Championship, Maggie and Matt look at whether it’s a process driven by revenue or fan growth, and what it might tell us about the audience women’s football in the UK is going after.
They also look at why “Hollywood” investors have come in for part-time, third-tier Watford Women, and the best way to structure a team off the pitch - should it be with dedicated football and business staff for the women’s team?
