Bowyer to cheer on Charlton Women against Millwall Lionesses

Lee Bowyer will be in attendance for tonight’s FA Women’s championship clash between Charlton Women’s and Millwall Lionesses at The Valley. 

Speaking after last night’s 2-1 win over Burton Albion, Bowyer spoke about how he was looking forward to seeing the women’s team play in SE7.

“I’m going to cheer on the ladies, it’s a big occasion,” he said. “I’m looking forward to seeing them play because I don’t get much opportunity to see them play, so I’ll be cheering them on.”

Bowyer has a history with our local rivals and spoke about his previous encounters against Millwall.

He said: “I’ve got a bit of a history with them (Millwall), played here and scored against them and when we were away there I got sent off! So, highs and lows.”

When asked about the women’s team playing on the pitch, Bowyer gave a heads up about the conditions.

He said: “It’ll be good for them. Our lads got tired really quickly on the pitch last night. But they’ll enjoy it and hopefully a lot of people come out and show their support and it’ll be a good occasion.”

Kick-off is at 7.45pm on Wednesday night and supporters can purchase tickets on the night from The Valley’s turnstiles
