I'd be interested to know what people think of the decision to play all of CFCW's WSL games at Stamford Bridge from next season onward?

It seems clear to me that the squad have been in favour of this for a long time but, I must say, that this decision is not popular with a large majority of the Kingsmeadow faithful I know. A significant percentage of them have said that they will give up their season tickets and either not go at all or pick and choose their games. That said I have always felt, and argued, that if we are to grow the match going supporter base it will be Stamford Bridge which drives the growth, not KM.

Sam Kerr to leave Chelsea at end of season after six years

https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/48770687/sam-kerr-leave-Chelsea-end-season-six-years

Striker Sam Kerr will leave Chelsea when her contract expires at the end of the season.

The Australian is currently one short of matching Chelsea's record goalscorer Fran Kirby having netted 115 times in 157 appearances for the club since joining in January 2020.

Kerr has been one of the stars of a trophy-laden spell for the Blues, twice winning the Women's Super League Golden Boot and helping the side to five WSL titles, three Women's FA Cups and three League Cups.

"When I reflect on my Chelsea career and doing it for the last time, I just feel happy," the 32-year-old said on the club's website.

"Happy that it happened, and I feel so grateful to have played for this club for six years and won as many trophies as we could."

There have been difficult times, too, with Kerr sidelined for 20 months after sustaining a knee ligament injury in January 2024.

Kerr, who captains the Australia national team, is set to make her final appearance for Chelsea in Saturday's WSL clash with Manchester United.

This season she has scored 16 goals, becoming Chelsea's leading WSL scorer, and the club said, "We thank Sam for her incredible contribution to our success on the pitch and sustained growth off it. We wish her all the best in the next chapter of her career."
