FA issues statement surrounding Notts County Ladies
The Football Association has issued a statement following Notts County's decision to terminate its Ladies team.
An FA spokesperson said: "The FA is aware of the situation and is liaising with all involved parties.
"Our priority is the welfare of the players and we will work closely with them, the PFA and wider stakeholders to support them through this time.
"We would also like to make clear that an FA WSL licence cannot simply be transferred into another club’s name.
"To maintain the integrity of the league and in fairness to all other FA WSL and FA Women's Premier League clubs there is a rigorous application process to meet licence criteria."
