🦁 A ROARING ANNOUNCEMENT🦁
We are still riding the wave of excitement from the incredible win from the lionesses last night that we just can’t hold this in anymore!
Season 4 will see Michelle Payne join us to discuss her play ‘squad goals’ 🤩
Check out the play synopsis here and maybe add a copy to your basket before the episode drops ⬇️
Everyone has football fever, but not in the usual way. England’s Lionesses are tearing up the pitch and making a real name for the female game. Lexi, who never had the opportunity to be taken seriously, inspires a group of school leavers to redefine the game in her home town of Dagenham.
We love hearing from you Scripties!
