Our official matchday programme is back for the 2023/24 WSL season ahead of our first home fixture against Chelsea.

City welcome Emma Hayes’ side to the Joie Stadium on Sunday 8 October, with kick-off set for 12:30 (UK).

And supporters can prepare for the action by purchasing our programme at the Joie Stadium, packed with interesting content and a stunning new front cover design.

Inside the comprehensive publication, there’s an in-depth interview with summer signing and Netherlands’ World Cup star Jill Roord.

The midfielder enjoyed a debut to remember against West Ham last week by scoring our second in the 2-0 success in the capital.

There’s also a lighthearted Q&A with defender Leila Ouahabi on her teammates following the Spaniard’s maiden season at the Joie Stadium, as well as all the latest news surrounding the Club – including the renaming of the stadium.

Finally, there’s a heartfelt tribute to City legend Francis Lee following his sad passing on Monday.
