BARNSLEY football hero Bethany England has slammed TV pundit Graeme Souness for his recent comments calling the sport a ‘man’s game’.
The 28-year-old, who is from Kingstone, was an unused substitute in each of England’s games this summer as they went on to win the European Championships.
Following a game between Chelsea and Tottenham on Sunday, Souness described football as a ‘man’s game’ - sparking controversy.
The Chelsea striker said: “What a disgraceful thing to say after the summer this country has just seen.”
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
