Wee Lion Cub
England Women's Football Team won the Euro 22 Final last night, as you will no doubt know (because we are all banging on about it).
As I passed Trafalgar Square there were hundreds of excited little girls hoping to get in to meet the team.
Would you believe the FA banned women's football from the 1920's to the mid 1990's, so their achievement in such a short time is immense.
If I have one criticism is that the team is all white and seemingly blonde. Wondering where all the talented women of colour have gone I might say they have traded in their boots for more lucrative careers as TV presenters. Another reason may be the expense of US 'Soccer' Camps these women need to attend.
Either way the lack of diversity shocked me.
