The Dick Kerr's Ladies by Barbara Jacobs
Founded in 1917, women's football quickly became a popular spectator sport - so much so, that the Football Association banned it, fearing it would upstage the men's game. This book is the story of the Dick, Kerr's Ladies team, as well as the political and social issues that led to the demise of the women's game.
