I am so excited to share Extra Time: An NLS Lens with you. A series I have wanted to do for a long time, to put a spotlight on the best practice in Non League football.
We visit 3 incredible clubs across the country to share tips and advice with you ⚽️😃
I was sent home from primary school for playing football.
Today I got to celebrate £600 MILLION of investment into creating equal access to ⚽️ in schools with over 250,000 girls taking part in the
#LetGirlsPlay
Biggest Ever Football Session.
Thank you,

There are gold medals and then there is Bethany Shriever's gold medal 🏅
Female BMX riders had funding taken away after Rio (men didn't) so Bethany had to do a GoFundMe campaign to even make it to Tokyo as well as come back from a broken leg, twice. Definition of a champion👏🇬🇧
From watching in the stands to a standing ovation from a packed Covered End 👏
18 years old, scores his first League goal at The Valley and chooses to do this. Tells you a lot about how Charlton bring up their Academy players 🙌❤️⚽️
#cafc
Oh football, always keeping you on your frozen toes 🥶🥳
The defensive details that went into that

game plan were immaculate.
Delighted Lavelle got the winning penalty. Not been an easy year for him but I’ve always been impressed by his professionalism and character.
It won’t surprise any

I love spending time in their company & introducing Curbs to Baby Guinness was a highlight as we toasted the end of a successful season of

That’s a wrap 🎬
My third season as part of

A special football club with equally special people and brighter times ahead 😊⚽️
When I was a little girl there was only one day of the year women’s football was on TV. Grandad and I would watch

For each of the 3 seasons I have worked at Charlton

have been the best, most organised & fluid team I have seen at The Valley in League 1.
It is testament to the progress made that

won in the manner they did today & enjoyable to break down the game with Nathan! ⚽️🗣️

Thank you to all the staff & crew who work so hard to create what I think is one of the best club match day productions about.
It’s been really, really fun ⚽️❤️
#cafc
Feels like the new season really isn’t too far away now 🤗⚽️
Thank you
@CAFCofficial
for inviting me
to the new Superstore opening today. This home kit is my favourite in seasons 🔴
Any supporters who pop in store between now and Saturday can get £5 off their shirt 😊
In my journalistic world, when the Gaffer says you’ve made a good point, it feels like you’ve scored a goal🥳😅
SIX quality goals & a clean sheet to discuss. It’s been a few decades since such a clinical afternoon was had at The Valley, certainly one to enjoy
#cafc
@CAFCofficial
A Berry sweet start to the season in SE7! 😅🫐
Alongside the 92nd minute winner, it was so good to be back with friends and familiar faces again and hear The Covered End in fine voice in the sunshine 😁⚽️
@CAFCofficial
#cafc
A very special game today ❤️
A match day dedicated to making football a more inclusive and safe space for women and girls ⚽️
My besties came to The Valley for

#cafc
A stadium I have always dreamt of visiting, the Bernabéu was even more spectacular than I imagined.
The experience made all the more special by watching our future England captain shine amongst the Real Madrid stars ✨
A game I will remember for a long time to come 😁⚽️🏟️

Browny, Curbs and I will be live from 7pm for pre-match chat, half-time analysis and post-match reaction too 😊

What a pleasure to spend the day at
@Bearsted_FC
as they welcomed
@alessiarusso7
home to kick-start a campaign to improve their facilities and provide more young girls with opportunities to play, make friends and develop skills to set them up for life.
Thought the Amazon match coverage was exceptional, really enjoyed the style and production throughout, this moment topped it off 👌🏻
Male allyship is so important in this game. Credit to Brendan Rogers for using his platform to elevate another top coach. It is lovely to see 👏😊
"All of the things you are doing is really helping women's football progress"
"As a fellow coach, I've watched from the outside... you've done amazing"

I love our
#Lionesses
. Their grit, togetherness & ability to win games in a number of ways.
What I love most? Their humility.
Seeing players rush to console Nigeria goalkeeper Nnadozie and usher cameras away, might be missed by many. Puts the class in world-class in my book.
#Millwall
is one of the friendliest press boxes in the country. I love my visits to The Den. Karl and the team are fantastic, so helpful and it’s great to see another female learning her trade there too ☺️⚽️📻
@Karl_Bates
You had the pleasure of meeting my granddaughter Darcey yesterday at the Junior Lions Takeover day
@MillwallFC
. She had a fantastic day & was so happy that she had been up in the press area. Thank you! How are your ears as she sure can talk!
Alfie’s story really is an incredible one.
To earn a break from non-league and be rewarded a professional contract whilst working takes dedication & self-belief.
Not many score 20+goals 3 seasons in a row. A spot in Team of the Season is the least his journey deserves 👏

I’m looking for somewhere my friends and I can go next Sunday and I’d like to put my money behind the bar of a local football club who have been closed for so long 🙌🍷🏴
303 days and 81 matches later…
2022/23 is officially over for me ☑️
I have loved every second of reporting the goals, asking the questions and telling the stories wherever the game has been good enough to take me…⚽️🎤📻📺🎙️
Counting down until

What it means, you can’t really put into words.
Thank you

First Final Score of the season on Saturday afternoon and I was treated to a five goal thriller in the sunshine at The Den ☀️
Set for a thunderstorm at tomorrow night’s game. Was nice whilst it lasted, right! 😭⚽️

My gantry debut ✔️ It is something I have always wanted to do at The Valley. Not nearly enough layers but I blame that on still being in holiday mode 🥶

tweet of the day but I am so happy to see this 😅
I have been fortunate enough to interview Daniel and I love the way he expresses himself. 18 years old and speaks so well 👏
4 goals today. Hope he carries on tearing it up in the National League.
Very lucky to have a Chairman who backs ideas to do things differently.
A special day deserved a special reward for all those who supported us at Wembley and across the country; week in, week out.
I hope those who were with us on Sunday are able to make the most of this 😊⚽️

This makes a sad night that little bit sadder.
When men with influence and experience use their platform to state things like this, it’s pretty devastating.
To all the girls and women inspired by seeing their gender on TV tonight, you’re in the majority more than you think 👍
Lots of us confidently predicted CBT would get a goal on his birthday, extra special that his strike wrapped up a hard fought three points 🎁
Triple sub late on proved a real catalyst after a tricky spell, great to end a game
so strongly in front of a noisy Covered End 👏
