Maggie Murphy: Equal pay for equal play

from The Game Changers Hosted by Sue Anstiss

This week we’re re-releasing an interview with an extraordinary sporting trailblazer - Maggie Murphy. Maggie is now CEO at Lewes FC, the only professional club in the world to equally invest in its men’s and women’s teams. Maggie sheds light on the huge disparity in pay in women’s sport - especially for the FA Cup. This month Lewes FC women made history in qualifying for the FA Cup quarter final. If they win their game at home against Man Utd on March 19 they will win 25k. If the men’s team won in the same round they would win. . . 450k. (Plus another 200k broadcast fee as the host venue). It’s a shocking example of the lack of investment in women’s sport. Lewes is 100% fan owned.
