This book analyses women as spectators at men’s association football (soccer) in Britain from 1863 to 1939. The author shows that women have always been present at men’s football in Britain, a fact not always acknowledged in modern popular accounts of the game, albeit as a small minority in overall attendances.

Some women have always been ‘authentic’ fans of football, both knowledgeable and enthusiastic in their support, and this book will demonstrate that.

Robert Lewis is the author of five entries in The Encyclopedia of British Sport and has contributed widely to the academic journal literature, including ‘Football Hooliganism in England Before 1914’ published by The International Journal of the History of Sport and ‘The female football spectator in England, 1870–1914’, published in Soccer and Society. He died in 2021.
