Manchester Corinthians Event

For International Women’s Day last year I staged a talk on this date (5 March) last year on the Manchester Corinthians at Manchester Central Library. It was a great night and wonderful once again to hear so many interested in the story. The addition of Corinthians in the audience added to the event. They truly are remarkable women and there are so many angles to this wonderful football team that toured the globe between 1948 (yes, 1948 and not 1949 as often reported) and 1992. This talk was one of many events I’ve performed over the last decade or so in which I discuss the Corinthians. You can find details about some of the others elsewhere on the site. For those who want to find out more…

Firstly, Manchester Corinthians: The Authorised History.

Next, here’s the wonderful 18 minute film put together by Imprint Films on the Corinthians. It includes brief interviews with a small group of the women I interviewed (I’ve interviewed over 50 Corinthians for the book and self funded project, including three women who played in the first season of 1948-49) plus I help to explain why they are so significant.
