Re: CCFC women going semi pro
That is real progress.
I wonder how much of a financial commitment it is from the club? I doubt the sponsors on listed under the club report are making much of a contribution.
Part time salaries for the whole Womens' first team squad may not be that much, but it puts Cardiff in a different position from most other sides in Wales. Wrexham gave part-time contracts to 10 of their Womens' team on Monday - but I think that is it for the Welsh league.
Are Cardiff City Ladies (semi) professional. If not the change announced today might make the Women a more attractive proposition than the Ladies - even with where the two sides play. -
Re: CCFC women going semi pro
An interesting development, should help bring about an improvement in European competition for City and should give the players a better chance of a lucrative move to a bigger club.Comment

Cardiff City Ladies were attached to Cardiff City FC from 2001 to 2003 but went their own way 20 years ago. They play in the English League pyramid (3rd tier - Southern Premier after promotion at the end of last season).Originally posted by Carl Dale's Mole View Post
Cardiff City Women are part of Cardiff City FC. They play in the Welsh league system (Adran Premier). Current league champions, FAW Women's Cup holders and playing in the Women's Champions League next season

Very interesting to see a Cardiff City team that has nothing to do with us outside the name.
And I just read Jess Fishlock came through there?! Will the next Fishlock come through Ladies or Women you think? Who wins in a match?
I'll be following that Champion's League run for sure. I'm guessing that will be a truer test for the Women than the league was last season.Comment

Re: CCFC women going semi pro
Great news and good luck to the girls out in Lithuania.
I suspect it will be some seasons before they are able to compete at Eurpean level though. Hopefully will eventually have better luck than the current men's Welsh league teams have.
Wonder where this leaves the longer established Cardiff womens team though?Comment
