'When I began researching women's football, I was stunned by how much was missing.'
Ex-England player Lori Hoey says the history of the women's tournament is nowhere near as accessible as that of the men's
"When you look at what the Women's FA Cup has become now with huge crowds at Wembley, it's really important to honour the history," said Lori Hoey, a former England player.Lori, who was born in Clapham, south-west London, is herself an FA Cup winner, having played for Friends of Fulham in their 2-0 victory over Doncaster Belles in the 1985 final.
"I grew up being able to learn all about the history of the men's game. If they want to learn about the history of the women's game, I want there to be as much information as possible out there for them." "Girls had grown up following the men's FA Cup just like their brothers," said Patricia. "Their brothers had an FA Cup, so they wanted one too. We made sure they got one."
Another reason for such sloppy record-keeping throughout the history of the women's game may be that it was simply not considered necessary. Patricia and myself became aware of Tim and Rob's project as we researched our book on the history of the Women's FA Cup final, which was published in 2021.
