Catch-Up with B.
I can't express how in more words how we need more people of colour in these spaces, in the boardroom, in the press box, the commentary box and in the dugout, and to have one on the top of the journalism space, in the words Jurgen Klopp is, 'really cool'

Tackling Discrimination in Sports.
Recent social media abuse on footballers such as Lauren and Reece James, Marcus Rashford, Axel Tuanzebe among many others had me thinking about how sports fans view athletes and how society treats historically oppressed groups. I thought about how we can only eliminate discrimination by letting go of old beliefs and unrealistic expectations.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
I don't believe the is a linear method to achieving diversity, equity and inclusion, so this is not a criticism of the frameworks in place at all. But, I do believe that the application of the framework can be improved. Diversify where you have quotas, chiefly lower down the pipeline, ensuring that there's a demographic balance coming through the pipeline. Not just the playing squad, but in the support structures too, from the boardroom to the on-field support.

Women's sport deserves so much more
"Sport has the ability to set the precedent for gender and racial equality in all aspects of society. Women find their confidence and community when participating in sports. Society has progressed beyond women only being defined by their sexual value. At the same time, masculinity is evolving beyond proving manhood through physicality"
