==Nature of the Link with Arsenal (Men's team)?==
==Nature of the Link with Arsenal (Men's team)?==

The wording on this is vague, at time of wring (June 2014) it says the Arsensal LFC are affiliated to the Arsenal. The exact nature of the relationship is not explained. Is it in fact one Club as Arsenal, and Aresenal LFC is simply the Ladies team?

The kit seems identical, using the same logos and sponsors- which suggests either a strong legal relationship, or that it's simply part of the same club, (a bit like Cardiff RFC, which is not really a separate club, but simply the Rugby Section of of Cardiff Athletic Club- which also has other sports teams, e.g. bowls, cricket etc).

The fact that the article explains there's an overlap of directorships between the Men's and Ladies Clubs suggests that the Ladies Club is subsidiary company? (Is part of the job of the men's Arsenal team Cheif Exeutive to be the Chairman of the Ladies Club?) Or is the "affiliation" relationship more akin to the relationships you see between firms using the same brand in Japan say?

Clearly the casual observer would assume given the logo is the same etc that the Aresenal LFC is simply the Ladies team of the same club. (Akin to say most golf clubs almost all of whom have Gentlemen's and Ladies teams, but there is no question of them being separate clubs- generally speaking). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.218.39 (talk) 22:15, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
