AFC Fylde Women end the season in style with another victory
AFC Fylde Women completed an unbeaten 2025/26 league season following their 4-0 victory at West Didsbury and Chorlton on Wednesday evening.
The Coasters put in yet another complete and professional display as Danny Murphy’s NW Regional Premier champions showed their class and enjoyed some amazing title celebrations following the full-time whistle.
Fylde got off to a quick start at Platt Lane and grabbed the opener through Lois Moore.
The forward broke the line and got the ball into the wide area before catching the keeper out at her near post, finding the net from the tightest of angles.
It was soon two for Fylde after a lovely flowing team move saw Ocean Flanagan slot past the opposition keeper.
Fylde then headed into the break in complete control as neat wing play from Molly Kelly ended with Niamh Corrigan adding a third goal.
With the second half seeing more dominance from the visiting side, Fylde midfielder Orlaith O’Mahony tapped in from close range for her first goal.
The Coasters pushed for a fifth late, with Georgia Payton seeing an effort deflect over before Millie Tindall went inches away from chipping the keeper from distance.
Four goals were enough, however, for a Fylde team which also saw academy graduate Isabella Heyworth make her full senior debut and keep a clean sheet.
It ended a season that saw Murphy’s side go down in the history books, remaining unbeaten as they completed a double and an immediate return to the FA Women’s National League.
