Covid-19 strikes, shutting down the Women’s Super League mid-way through the season.

When Covid-19 strikes, shutting down the Women’s Super League mid-way through the season, the lives of the West Ham women are turned upside down. While Martha Thomas is stranded in Wales with her girlfriend Ellie, 18-year-old Jacynta Galabadaarachchi has got to try to get home to Australia; and as veteran Julia Simic faces a decision about the end of her career, there’s an emotional farewell for one of the other hammers. But with Jack committing to a new stadium with a bigger capacity, and new players arriving to bolster the squad, will Matt’s team and the women’s game itself be able to survive the financial impact of a global pandemic?
