SOLIHULL MOORS chairman Darryl Eales has expressed his dismay at a row over the club’s women’s team and promised a swift resolution of the “collective failure” which prompted it today.

A statement from the Moors Women’s squad posted on X by player Alex Liddiard on Friday aired claims that the players had “endured conditions that no team, at any level, should be expected to tolerate,” including ill-fitting kits, a lack of basic equipment, no provision of transport for away games and no guaranteed pitch for midweek fixtures.

Eales has revealed he held a meeting with representatives of the team, which plays in the fourth tier of the women’s football pyramid, Division One Midlands of the National League, and the Solihull Moors Foundation, under which it operates, on Sunday in a bid to address the issues raised.
