Langley celebrating her 100th game in charge expressed pride in the team’s journey and thanked the fans for their support. Despite potential challenges such as the departure of sporting director Dan Ashworth to Manchester United, Langley remains focused on achieving promotion to the Women’s Super League (WSL).
