Tottenham Hotspur Women just fell short of the 9-0 WSL scoreline record that Chelsea hold on to still as Rehanne Skinner's side bounced back from the Man City disappointment to record a whopping 8-0 win against now manager-less Brighton and Hove Albion.
Hope Powell decided it was time to step down after five years in charge of the Seagulls following the home humiliation and the outpour of support aimed at the former Lionesses boss has been added upon by Skinner who hopes to see her managerial compatriot back in the women's game in some form, 'sooner rather than later.'
“Hope is a fantastic person and a fantastic coach," she started in her press conference on Thursday afternoon. “She mentored me through the early stages of my career when I was involved with England at youth age groups. She has offered so much to the game and has contributed so much too. I’m certain she will be back in the game in some way shape or form.
