Spurs Women managed to avoid a defeat away at Everton on the final day of the season, but could not complete the comeback for all three points. This left Spurs with just one win in 2025 and an 11th-place finish in the WSL—the club's worst-ever finish in the competition.

We chat:

• Ella's first senior England call-up
• Surprise Sarri's free kick goal
• Drew's MD22 tradition
• Frustrating substitutions

Plus, we assess the season as a whole, consider Robert Vilahamn's future, look ahead to the off-season, and criticize the new WSL rebrand.

Spurs lost this one but the vibes were a whole lot better.

We try and identify what was different and talk about:

• The return of Eveliina and Drew
• Olivia's skills
• Charli on the wing
• Ash's acrobatic 'clearance'

And we ask: will anyone other than Beth ever score again?

We also look ahead to Brighton, get into the WPLL's rumoured plan to scrap relegation (bad), Becky Spencer's loan to Chelsea (confusing) and Kit Graham's return to training (good).

* Note: This episode was recorded before we saw the transfer rumours about Olga Ahtinen's return to Sweden.
