It is the story of a rise, fall, and rise again: from the games first appearance in England in the late nineteenth century; through the incredible teams which at their height in 1920 drew 53,000 spectators to Goodison Park; to its 50-year ban in the UK and the aftershocks when that ban was lifted.</p><p>Now, as the womens game is once again on an unstoppable upward trend, with internationally renowned players and a record 11.7m viewers for Englands semi-final match against the USA in the 2019 World Cup, Suzanne Wrack considers what the next chapter of this incredible story might be. From its relationship to the worldwide fight against oppression, to its ability to inspire change in the wider world, this is both a history of football as played by women, and a manifesto for a better game.</p><p>A thoroughly entertaining and enlightening read.<br /><strong>CLARE BALDING</strong></p><p>A fantastic book on how the game has developed and what its future could hold.<br /><strong>PHIL NEVILLE</strong></p><p>An impassioned rescue of brave pioneers from enormous condescension, and a joyous look ahead to better days.<br /><em><strong>THE SPECTATOR</strong></em></p>(*_*)9781783352173_<p><strong>WINNER OF A <em>SUNDAY TIMES</em> SPORTS BOOK AWARD<br />A <em>TIMES</em> SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR<br />LONGLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR</strong></p><p>A truly important book. <strong>MEGAN RAPINOE</strong><br />Hardhitting and clear sighted. <em><strong>THE TIMES</strong></em><br />Impassioned . . . joyous. <em><strong>SPECTATOR</strong></em><br /><strong>DISCOVER THE STORY OF THE WOMEN WHO PAVED THE WAY FOR THE LIONESSES</strong></p><p>This is the astonishing history of womens football: from the games first appearance in England in the late nineteenth century to the incredible teams that at their height drew 53,000 spectators to Goodison Park, through to its fifty-year ban in the UK and the aftershocks when restrictions were lifted.
