So much fun chatting to Grant and Dino on this 🎙️ podcast, reflecting on the ⚽ @weuro2025bot.bsky.social. Thanks for having me on, guys @decespedes.bsky.social and @grantengle.bsky.social @intothechannel.bsky.social @foxsoccer.bsky.social
Into The Channel Podcast@intothechannel.bsky.social · last yr.We talked to legendary broadcaster Jacqui Oatley about England's historic victory over Spain in the EURO Final, as well as her impressions on the tournament as a whole. Watch here: youtu.be/wThMQ6hIl_g?...
Forgive me for going down the “role model” route with the Lionesses 🏴, as they shouldn’t be lumbered with that label. Teens’ world is so social media based. So to see the likes of 19-year-old Agyemang show such resolve and resilience, without a phone in their hands, really does us parents a favour!
I asked England’s 🏴 Lauren James whether she’d spent extra time practising with her left foot as kid. LJ “It’s kind of natural. I had a habit of always using my opposite. Even in school, I'd use my left hand when I'm right handed. It was just a mindset thing. Just stg that I had a habit of doing.”
20 years after commentating on Finland’s 🇫🇮 opening Euro 2005 group match v England 🏴 for the BBC, I’m about to commentate on Finland’s 🇫🇮 opener v Iceland 🇮🇸 at Euro 2025 live on FOX Sports 🇺🇸. Feeling grateful. Should be a cracking tournament 🏆
Very excited to be working once again for Fox Sports 🇺🇸, this time commentating on UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 ⚽️ over the next month alongside @lorilindsey6.bsky.social. Fantastic lineup. After three weeks of 👩🏼💻🤓, now for the packing! www.foxsports.com/presspass/bl...
Thought the Wales 🏴 women ⚽️ head coach Rhian Wilkinson was outstanding with media this morning. Impressive leadership skills, she struck the right balance between confidence and humility. Do not write off Wales in that crazy Euro 2025 group of 🏴 🇫🇷 🇳🇱 🏴
Well researched article by Ian Herbert of the @dailymail.co.uk on the lack of support for female footballers below the WSL. If anything at all vaguely positive can come out of Maddy Cusack's devastating death, then maybe it's these changes... www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/footba...
We have one month to save @josimarfootball.bsky.social. If you can help, please do. 🙏 josimarfootball.com/2025/06/03/a...
A letter from Philippe Auclair - josimarfootball.com
The reality we at Josimar face is stark. Should we fail to raise € 50k by 1 July, the world's only investigative media dedicated solely to football will cease to exist.

Packing for flight to 🇺🇸 to commentate on Jess Carter 🏴 and co for Gotham FC - good timing as this new @carriesparkle.bsky.social book is out tomorrow! It’s about the British women footballers ⚽️ who paved the way for the current Lionesses & co. Ban in force here until 1971 ⛔️ amzn.eu/d/cJgEbt9
Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

How common is this in professional football ⚽️? An intensive, full-time intern role as a performance analyst that pays nothing. In return, they ask you to bring experience, your own laptop (MacBook) and you must provide your own transport. Yet they’re “committed to equality”.
Looking forward to working with Tony Cascarino on @talksport.com Weekend Sports Breakfast tomorrow morning, filling in for Nat. On air 🎙️ 6-9am. Loads to talk about! www.youtube.com/watch?v=PX-n...

Can't quite believe this was 18 years ago today! Thanks to Katie for the chat about some rather stressful memories and, more importantly, a changing of the broadcasting landscape in the UK 🇬🇧 since that crazy, crazy time. PS 🇺🇸 very different experience 😊
Katie Whyatt@katiewhyatt.bsky.social · last yr.18 years today since Jacqui Oatley was the first female commentator on Match of the Day. Oatley on her memories of that “isolating” time, and how it led to the founding of Women in Football and a lifelong mission to help more women enter the industry www.nytimes.com/athletic/629...
