Tribalism in Women's Football: 'Two Girls Talk Balls Podcast' Takeover
Listen now
Description
After a record-breaking summer in terms of support for the international game, the UK's Women's Super League kicked off the 19/20 season with the first ever Manchester Derby in the WSL. It was also the first time fans were segregated in the league's history, so in this episode, podcasters Tamsin and Helen, who run the excellent 'Two Girls Talk Balls Podcast', ask if segregation in the support will help the women's game. With the help of some of some of England's international players, they engage in a wider conversation about whether or not it needs the rivalry and tribalism, synonymous with the men's game. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? This episode was written, recorded and hosted by Helen Roberts-Hardy and Tamsin Connor, and edited by Christian Allen. Podcast Hosts are Amelia Bayler & Ross Semple Produced by Ally McCrae & Ross Semple Senior Producers are Kirsty Drain & Paul McFadyen Exec Producer is Anthony Browne Original Pilot Material is a podcast for BBC Sounds from the team behind BBC The Social, the award-winning new talent platform from BBC Scotland.
