It's a huge weekend in the Women's Super League and Championship,
with bumper crowds expected on a round of fixtures all being
played at the clubs' main stadiums - from Goodison Park to the
Amex, from St James' Park to The Valley, a lot of eyes will be on
women's football.
And they'll be seeing a lot of rainbows, as it's a Rainbow Laces
activation too. So how important is the LGBTQ+ inclusion in
sports campaign in the women's game?
Joining us to explore this is Billericay Town forward Valentine
Pursey, who recently went public about a report she made
regarding homophobic abuse on the pitch; and Huddersfield Town
midfielder and TikToker Caz Simone, who won the LGBTQ Award at
the Football Black List earlier this year.
They chat with host Jon Holmes of FvH and Sports Media LGBT+
about their experiences within football and on social media; what
it's like to be a player with short hair, which is somewhat rare
in the women's game and also the subject of an awareness campaign
created by an Under-12 girls team; and what they believe the
underlying message should be for Rainbow Laces 2024.
