Niamh Harrigan has added Siobhan Harrigan, Lizzie Davis, Boots Quinn, Margy El Sharif, Mady Song and Shannon Stone to the group chat
Niamh Harrigan has titled the group chat "The Alice and Gemma Investigators"
Niamh: Okay, we need a new group chat for this. What the fuck is the deal with Alice and Gemma?
Margy: LMFAOOOOOOO
Mady: 😂😂😂😂😂
Boots: 👀👀👀
Siobhan: Of course you'd make a group chat for this you freak
Lizzie: As the captain, I'd advise against speculating about our players and coaching staff in this manner.
Lizzie: But as someone with eyes and ears that work...
Niamh: Alright let's lay out the facts.
Niamh: #1 - They played together at Arsenal but dodge basically every question anyone has asked about playing together
Niamh: #2 - Gemma called Alice a bitch and Alice barely reacted. Do you think any of us could call Alice a bitch and have her barely blink?
Niamh: #3 - I have never heard Alice or Gemma mention anything about having a partner
Siobhan: Wow you're really doing this, huh
Niamh: Oh shut the fuck up there's clearly something here and you know it
Mady: So what are we leaning towards, officially exes? Intense former situationship?
Margy: Alice seems too intense for me to picture her being romantic but yeah something's going on with them
Boots: We all contain multitudes off the pitch, Margy.
Boots: Anyways I vote for homoerotic friendship in their teens
Mady: She's been supportive of me and Margy so I can't imagine she'd be ashamed to admit she had a lesbian relationship, gotta be something more to it than that
Niamh: Does anyone know anyone who played at Arsenal with either of them? There must be a direct source we can find for this.
Margy: Lizzie as captain I believe it is your duty to figure out what's going on there.
Lizzie: 😂
Niamh: Shannon you got any opinions on this?
Shannon: 
Boots: LOL
Niamh: Right, everyone keep monitoring this, this is way more than just former teammates and I know we can solve this riddle!

Niamh: Well I guess we're not going to get any new Alice and Gemma interactions for a little bit
Siobhan: Our assistant coach just got suspended and that's your main takeaway?
Niamh: Maybe...

Mady: What do we have here?
Mady: 
Niamh: OOOOOOOHHHHHHHH
Niamh: Me when I am enjoying a quiet moment away from everyone else out on the water completely platonically with no complicated personal history
Siobhan: Please don't give her the satisfaction of being right about this
Lizzie: Mady, your ability to take photos like this is starting to worry me
Margy: Nothing wrong with a little investigative journalism, captain. Great pic, babe!
Boots: Well did they kiss?
Mady: Not yet
Siobhan: See!
Mady: But wait until midnight 👀
Niamh: How long were they out there together?
Mady: About 2-3 minutes
Niamh: Plenty of time to confess their love to each other, then
Siobhan: Oh for fuck's sake
Lizzie: As the captain and oldest person in this chat I must remind everyone that if we have any meaningful proof of them being in a relationship we must tell Ted...but until then you youngsters are entertaining me with this
