QUITE why women’s football doesn’t seem to have really taken off in Scotland and broken through to the mainstream as it has elsewhere remains something of a mystery. And a pity.
Take this match between Rangers and Celtic. There were 3228 in attendance, a healthy enough figure that stacks up very well against some regular Premiership men’s matches, but there was a slight tinge of disappointment from the hosts that their record attendance of 4421 wasn’t threatened under the circumstances, with no top-flight men’s football to compete with the fixture.
