It's 2024 And I Can Finally Feel Safe At A Football Match

I was (and unfortunately still am) a die hard Manchester United fan, because my dad was, and of course, you always support the team your dad introduces you to. Some of my favourite home memories are from screaming at the TV for joy at the legends like David Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Wayne Rooney play with ease and finesse. Now don’t get me wrong, screaming at your TV with your family is great, but there’s nothing quite like a live match. But in the early 2000s, a live match was no place for a little Black girl like myself.
