The Leeds Utd Ladies have been forced to change their name to Leeds Carnegie Ladies FC after Leeds United cut off funding to the women's team.

They were also threatened with legal action if they did not stop using the word 'United' in their name. This action has now been dropped.


Typical behaviour from a men's team. The women's team is doing a lot better than their male counterparts and get abandoned and money is withdrawn from them. I hope the girls can go on and prove it was a bad decision by the men's side to do this.

it is a bit petty saying to stop using `United` ...but that is business for you ...dont get nothing for free in this world .

I think just `Leeds Ladies` would have been fine ...short and simple .
