Glasgow City Co-Captain Aims to Build on Past Experiences for SWPL Title Challenge
Glasgow City is focused on learning from last season’s shortcomings as they prepare to compete for the SWPL title, according to co-captain Amy Muir. The team previously claimed the Sky Sports Cup by defeating Rangers 2-1 in the final and had a commanding lead in the league before finishing third.
“Obviously, off the back of last year, a bit of disappointment for us in terms of how the league campaign finished,” stated the Scotland defender. Despite the disappointment, she highlighted the significance of winning the Sky Sports Cup and enjoying a successful run in Europe.
As they look forward to the new season, Muir emphasized the importance of integrating new players into the squad. “We’ve made a few changes, but what we aim for this year is very much silverware again and competing at the top,” she said.
With a taste of victory from last season, Muir expressed a strong desire to replicate that success. “We know how good that feels, so we want to repeat that again,” she added.
Glasgow City holds the record for the most SWPL titles, boasting 16 overall, but last topped the league in 2023. Muir urged the team to learn from previous experiences, stating, “Last year, we felt we dipped at a key moment, so I think it’s about learning from that and using the experience to try to come out better for it.”
“Getting off to a good start this season is crucial,” she concluded. “We want to compete in every competition that we’re in. I think that’s what Glasgow City is about.”
