Notts County Ladies defender Laura Bassett has admitted her side are ‘raring to go’ ahead of the new FA Women’s Super League season.
Last year the Lady Pies made headlines by reaching both the FA Women’s Cup final and the Continental Cup final.
Ahead of Wednesday's game at Manchester City, Bassett told The Offside Rule: “Every season it has to be about getting more points and finishing higher in the league.
We gained so much momentum early in the season getting ourselves to the FA Cup final and then because we didn’t deliver we lost our way a little in the league.
Then the Continental Cup came around and we decided to focus on that and we managed to get to the final again.
“As a club we’re very resilient, we’re very focused and when we put our minds to it, we’ll get what we want but we know in finals anything can happen – that’s football!
This season we want to focus on getting some silverware on the table, we have to be determined and we have to finally prove to ourselves that we’ve got that potential and that we’re hard to beat at Notts County.
We also want to thank our fans and all those people who work so tirelessly every year too.
“Everyone at Notts is so raring to go. You speak to anyone in the team who hasn’t been away on international duty and you can tell they’re all raring to go and that the first game just needs to come around quicker, so yeah definitely we’re all ready to go.”
