I have views, some of them might be yours.

Scotland AND England (in that order), Southport, Newcastle, & Hearts.

@themattrd @SWPL God its tragic isn't it how badly documented the whole thing is. I'm gonna try and crack the Hearts history if nothing else

[James Keep @JamesKeep]

She definitely is for Hearts but is Lucy Jane Hope, at just 15 years and one month, the youngest ever goal scorer in the @SWPL? I can't find any evidence to suggest otherwise so unless someone else can I am going to say that she is.

We should be celebrating this.

Given how the last SPL season ended and how this one is unfolding I would expect bids for this to be LOW. Viewing figures down again, no-one outside Scotland (and a good few people in Scotland) couldn't care less to watch a two-team league.

Heart of Midlothian Women enter the international break third in the SWPL after a 3-2 derby win at Easter Road.

Mariana Speckmaier was the hero with a hat-trick as a young goalkeeper made her first start for Andy Thomson's side | @JamesKeep

Watching back the BBC Alba footage, I particularly enjoyed Kayla's reaction when she's told they want her for a TV interview. 😂

Good draw for Hearts. Should be strolling their way to the semi final now. One of Glasgow City & Celtic drew the short straw this year and face each other in the quarters.

🏆 We have been drawn away to Boroughmuir Thistle in the Quarter-Finals of the Sky Sports Cup 🇱🇻

Trip to the Basque country is a difficult but fun away day for Hearts. Shame it's unlikely to be at the proper Real Sociedad stadium 😔

[Hearts Women @heartswomenfc]

🆕 We have been drawn to face Real Sociedad in the Europa Cup Second Qualifying Round.

The ties are scheduled to take place on the 23rd and 30th September.

Further information will be announced in due course.

[James Keep @JamesKeep]

@themattrd I dunno man, I think you're right about Hjorring if absolutely everything goes perfectly on the days but, from the games against Køge and Rangers, my confidence in that happening is low. But I will enjoy the ride no matter what.

[James Keep @JamesKeep]

Here are the six teams Hearts could draw in the Europa Cup third qualifying round on Friday.

I can't sugarcoat this: A.C. PAOK is the only team Hearts could get that would even remotely resemble a chance of them progressing.

[James Keep @JamesKeep]

Will be interesting to see what % of the crowd is LCL fans rather than Man Utd fans. Hopefully a majority but I have my doubts.

[London City Lionesses @LC_Lionesses]

SOLD OUT!
Our quickest sell-out ever, and a record for ticket sales for a London City game 🩵
A huge thank you to every single fan who made this happen. Your support is breaking records.

[Hearts Standard @HeartsStandard_]

Hearts Women fell to their first defeat of the SWPL season on Sunday.

@JamesKeep on the possible key learning for Andy Thomson in such fixtures.

@mikey32132 Very true. Could have won the league last season if not for that weird final day blowout and it looks like they're back to being the strongest/ most clinical attack.

[James Keep @JamesKeep]

Lots for Andy Thomson to think about here at Ainslie Park. Hearts look comfortable in possession for the most part but have offered no threat going forward. Rangers hit them twice straight through the middle. Speckmaier offerIng very little and seemingly playing out as LW/LB.

[James Keep @JamesKeep]

Have Hearts accidentally announced that the first Edinburgh derby of the season is at Easter Road or is this a mistake?

Wouldn't be a huge surprise for another year of the Capital Cup but as of yet no official announcement and both clubs' websites still say Meadowbank.

It's nice of @BBCSportScot to have given us an extra goal. Hope that counts towards our goal difference at the end of the season... 😉
