A former England goalkeeper has labelled it 'shocking' that Manchester United do not have a women's team - in a situation 'under review' at Old Trafford.
Rachel Brown-Finnis who won 82 caps for the Three Lionesses' between 1997 and 2013 has slammed one of the world's biggest and richest football clubs for not running a female side.
The Old Trafford outfit have been without a women's team since 2005, when their team was disbanded just before the north-west hosted the women's European Championship.
Near neighbours Manchester City's consistent support of women's football has increased the scrutiny on United, whose lack of team angers Brown-Finnis, who can list Everton and Arsenal on her CV.
