Brighton & Hove Albion WFC

Um, so massive opportunity.

So now it's time to look at Brighton Women and their season so far.

And a little earlier, I spoke to Annabel Bassett, the Brighton-based correspondent for the women's game.

[upbeat music] Hey, Annabel.

All good.

All good.

So it's been, it's been a busy start to the season for Brighton Women.

Um, probably best place to start is right back in the summer.

We'll dive into things with women's football expert Flo Lloyd-Hughes in just a bit, but one club that probably wishes it had a bit more of an off-season is Brighton, whose manager, Dario Vidasic, abruptly left the club last Friday, just a week ahead of the new season.

Vidosic had a successful run with the Seagulls last season, leading them to a fifth-place league finish and an appearance in their first FA Cup final.

The departure reportedly came as a shock to most Brighton players, but the club quickly filled the void with former Real Sociedad manager Arturo Ruiz.

Vidosic had been linked with a vacancy at Angel City, who fired their manager in June.
