Perfect chapter to k-o 2022. Loved this @KateBattersby 🙌 but I think @joycecook01 needs a whole book!
If #WomeninFootball founding member Joyce's story doesn't inspire you to take action, what will? 🤷♀️

The amazing @joycecook01 spent 2 months getting 150 in-danger women footballers out of Afghanistan. She is one of the game's great unsung heroes. Her story, brilliantly told by @KateBattersby, appears in #FootballSheWrote and really deserves to be read.

Fabulous cover and great interview! Thank you @fraylor #TristanHopkins #AnneRobinson @RachelRileyRR @susie_dent @KateBattersby @snapperharrison. Everyone go out and buy a copy of @RadioTimes & tune into @C4Countdown every weekday at 2.10pm on @Channel4
#Countdown @C4Press
I’ve just photographed @annerobinsontv for the first time in 20 years. She was a trooper and along with @susie_dent and @RachelRileyRR made this week’s cover for the @RadioTimes . (We also forced the #Countdown clock to hold at 2pm…)

Reading some final edits (beautifully done by @EverSoBookish) for the women's football writing anthology that @FDpublishing is releasing this autumn. Some magnificent chapters by @DameJulieWelch, Louise Taylor, @KateBattersby and plenty more. Cover reveal/full details soon.
Shame on you @HuffPostUK and @harry_slater for your treatment of @DrRebeccaTidy and too many other journalists.
It’s time to call-out @HuffPostUK for its long-standing poor attitude towards freelancers. For years, they’ve treated hardworking, talented people terribly, from non-payment and late payment to ghosting and general rudeness.

Watching The Sporting L Word on @BBCNews. Speaking with @joycecook01 recently, recalled interviewing @clarebalding years ago and referencing "gay marriage". Clare quietly interjected "equal marriage". So right to correct me, & done elegantly. Stayed with me. Thanks @clarebalding.

Looking forward to reading once published @IanRidley1 @KateBattersby @WomeninFootball 🙏⚽️🥰 and never forgetting the wonderful and witty @vikkiorvice who always challenged us to be more 😘
Also featuring in our women's football writing anthology, in conjunction, with @WomeninFootball interviews will be such amazing people as @JacquiOatley, @CarrieBrownTV and @joycecook01, along with several footballers. The subject matter will be diverse, fascinating and powerful.

Big shout out to @AllSaintsLive staff Sophie & Tash at @FenwickStores @The_Lexicon - super helpful even when I couldn't decide which size Dalby biker was right and needed more time to think. Really appreciated their guidance and patience. Will be back!

Anyone comfortable with the way Jews everywhere have become the societal whipping boy again should pack up their Humanity Stalls and trade their peace badges. This cannot stand.
#dameveralynn was one of the most extraordinary people I've interviewed. Then 97, she was one of the few people to get younger with age. When the time came for me to leave, she blew me a kiss, and her cloudless eyes were as blue as the English summer sky. radiotimes.com/news/2020-06-…

When the PM went into ICU on Mon No10 said "The PM has asked Dominic Raab to deputise for him." Raab says he has not spoken to the PM since his hosp admission. So the PM didn't "ask" him. What did happen? The PM signed over power before losing consciousness? @afneil any thoughts?
