The minute from the SFA that we mark today: Women's Football (Item 70. Executive and General Purposes Committee): It was agreed to give recognition to women's football. (SFA Minutes, 29 August 1974). So little said for all those years of hurt. #50YearsOn A Most Unsuitable Game

Fifty years ago on 29 August 1974 the SFA agreed to lift the ban on women's football in Scotland. This is a discussion on a new book on women's football: 'A Most Unsuitable Game' out to mark that date. theselkirkarms.podbean.com/e/the-history-…

Fifty years on from the lifting of the cruel ‘ban’ and so much has changed in football for women and girls in Scotland. More girls playing, more teams, more competitions and more resource. It couldn’t have happened without the strong women who played their sport with hope…

As will be obvious, I am passionate about the history of women's football in Scotland & telling it to as many people as possible. If any teams or groups are interested in hearing more get in touch - I will try not to rant too much but can't promise. #50YearsOn A Most Unsuitable Game

What a super line-up for the Culture Perth & Kinross Autumn Writers event, including Mark Baillie's debut novel Salvage, a cracking book, a tragic story, 'read it & weep' literally, we did.

So excited to have my hands on early copies of A Most Unsuitable Game! Seems appropriate to take a photo of it on the kitchen table - a place where so much of women’s early football was planned, and where chats and edits for this book, were juggled in between family and work.
