In this Janette’s TV and Janette’s TV Podcast episode, Janette sits down with Maggie Murphy who was General Manager of the Lewes FC Women’s Team from 2019-2021, then elected to CEO of Lewes FC in 2021. Lewes Football Club was founded back in 1885 and is located in Lewes, East Sussex, England where Maggie joins us from. In 2017, they launched the ground-breaking Equality FC campaign that saw Lewes FC become the first (and currently only) club in the world to have equal playing budgets for women and men. Maggie sheds light on the history of Women & Football (Soccer) and how The FA Cup began in 1871. Women started playing in 1891. The Football Association banned women’s football in 1921 when the first Women’s FA Cup was played and didn’t reinstate it until 1971 (because they considered women’s football to be ‘unsuitable for a woman’s frame’, and ‘quite inappropriate for most women’). The 50-year ban allowed men’s teams to grow to the popularity they are now, while women were stunted from reaching the same level.
