Asked Renee Slegers about her future after the game. ‘I am here, I am full of energy and I care for the club. I spoke with the club this week and we feel super aligned.’ Said her and her staff will conduct a review of the slow start to the season during the break.

By all accounts, Borbe was top class in the BCD preseason friendly against City so praying for same again

No but why did we have a loophole that Traitors could swap for another celeb so I did but I swapped to Jerry and now Jerry is looking so dead 💀

Getting Richard in the work Traitors sweepstake now feels perfectly in line with how the rest of my week is going lol

I might not be built to follow this sport x

Things have gone bad so swiftly for Renee — who still hasn’t lost at home in the league — that I would be beyond gutted if she isn’t given space for one reset opportunity in terms of another block of games. The amount of change in the summer was always going to disrupt connections.

Two years ago today, my angel came to live with us 🩷

I didn’t think there was anything worse in the WSL than Chelsea away, City away back to back but then I realised Abi Byrne, Emily Heaslip back to back is possible. Not only possible but real and happening to me.

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Yeah as soon as the time-wasting from the gk was happening in the 5th minute I was like… ah, yes, familiar

010

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

I sit in block 1 and the main perk of that is getting to see Renee and the coaches’ reactions to things up close. At one point I think every Arsenal employee was, on rotation, taking their turn to remonstrate to the fourth official over the time-wasting because it was absurd

020

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

I’ve never seen Renee so angry and I stand with her, but I also really warmed to Misa when she raced up the pitch in record time to rage at the ref at FT

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Eva Olid pretending they were still committed to their new style of play and then reheating Skinner’s nachos was actually extremely predictable stuff and a particular joy was PTJ time-wasting on every gk from minute zero… losermaxxing

Every time I see Abi Byrne I know I’m about to have a bad time

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

It's been pointed out to me that we signed a Lisa, an Isa, a Misa and an Élisa all in the same window... much to think about

Just wanna be a Borbe girl in a Borbe woooorld

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 06/09/2026

Aside from Misa over Borbe which I do not support, that lineup is elite 🥰

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Anyway, I would recommend So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed by Jon Ronson, which is not a recent book but somehow feels more relevant than when I read it many years ago

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

I don’t think anyone was wrong for being wary based on these old posts, and I can understand wanting to see how things play out even now, but there’s a big difference between that and just flatly calling her a load of very loaded names — as well as “evil” — and flooding the awfc post replies

150

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Kinda passive aggressive from me, I realise, but I feel quite sad about the total refusal from people (on X) to look inward and see how readily they participated in something that ended up quite large-scale harassment — and many seem to refuse to acknowledge that maybe they fucked up a bit

140

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

I really hope people take the time to reflect on the way this has played out and the (seeming) eagerness to spread the very worst accusations without too much interrogation or pursuit of the evidence

180

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

Oh it’s totally understandable and like… it’s upsetting to feel let down like that, and not everyone always has the emotional energy to dig into everything but… it just jumped out to me that there were so few specifics in the swell of posts that seemed to catch like fire

020

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

Yeah, I think wariness about her politics is totally valid and understandable bc for a lot of people it’s really personal as much as anything, but the degree of vitriol directed at her feels quite scary when it’s so hard to find evidence of what she’s actually knowingly endorsed

030

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

And it’s such an awful thing to accuse someone of that it seems logical to me that before repeating that she’s x, x and x in such a categorical way, it might require a “what’s she done” reply but on Twitter everyone just seems to go “is she?? I didn’t know! That’s awful” rather than interrogate it

120

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

I’ve found it really hard to get to the heart of what it’s all based on at all (idek if this is all accurate — it’s just less vague than everything else), but most of what I’ve seen said has lacked any explanation or detail and yet it seems to be accepted as gospel truth

030

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

The only post I’ve seen with a bit more detail on context paints a slightly different picture — and I don’t see how it’s surprising it might “slip through the cracks” when no one calling her these fairly serious names seems to have too many specifics around it

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Has Arteta/Berta considered the fact that I don’t really like the cut of Alvarez’s jib

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Neki getting picked for City (to rave reviews) and the more enjoyable half of that game makes me delulu that my diva is gonna start the season in goal but we’ll see what the boss has for me

030

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

The NWSL doing a timeline of Tobin Heath but not including any mention of the time she played in, scored in and won (as MVP) the first ever NWSL Championship game on a broken foot is a major disservice to Tobin lore

010

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

yeah it's hard when you're not a casual enjoyer and you're like this is family business, also dont patronise me. but also i love tanya reynolds from other things and obv love the actual sport so part of me was ready to re-engage and give it a try, but i doubt that'll go well lol

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

It’s hard to enjoy when the first sentence tends to be an irritating hook and also comes from povs that are a lot younger than I am so different way of thinking about things that usually lacks nuance (and trends towards the invasive)

110

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

I think it’s hard when you’re in that world and you can see stories that are created by people new to or on the outside of the realities — found the same issue with that awful Cleat Cute book. You could tell things were googled or read, rather than lived

110

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

And maybe they’ll name check Nettie honeyball fresh off reading a woman’s game and then sort of paraphrase a chapter like it’s a parable

010

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

Yeah the clips I’m seeing are giving exposition to a level of TikTok account user discovered women’s football last month and is now posting 3 clips a day preaching about it as if an expert — like I presume Keeley has declared to everyone that it was banned for 50 years did you know

110

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

Yeah, I just felt like they stopped thinking thru the consequences of actions after like s1 and I haven’t enjoyed it since, but it’ll really pmo if they focus on women’s football and then fuck it up with such a categorical howler of a sackable offence story choice

110

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

I mean… they did it with Sam and Rebecca so I don’t trust them not to be brainless is the problem

110

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

Seeing people ship Gemma and Alice from Ted Lasso and not watching so I can’t tell if it’s rooted in something the show is actually setting up or just fan projection, but like… sorry, coach/player relationships are just such a hard no in the women’s football space specifically, can we not x

241

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 19/08/2026

Been reliably informed Borbe was class today — a victory for divas with taste x

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

Best card ever (some lore too personal lol)

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

Kind of mad that the third kit’s only out today and yet Tobin Heath’s already scored against City in it

031

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

I’m seeing a bunch of stuff about how the key quality they’re looking for in the replacement is the ability to develop players and what that implies about Skinner, but the bigger implication imo is how that reflects a desire to develop players rather than spend money on established ones

020

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

One look at that fixture list and his squad was enough to push the man over the edge

170

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

Years of people calling for him to be sacked but United are so dire and unwilling to invest in their team that he was the one who actually ended it after all that 🫠

Jessica Kennedy @jessevekennedy.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

Tanya Reynolds being in this but not playing the role of Anneke Borbe is a bit of a miss imo

My favourite thing about this Arsenal Women transfer window?

I don’t know if I’m capable of rooting against him, I’ll be real with you
