Ramble Meets... Rachel Brown-Finnis

Our Ramble Meets... guest this week went from watching her hometown club Burnley on the terraces at Turf Moor to earning 82 international caps and even becoming an Olympian: it's former England goalkeeper turned pundit, Rachel Brown-Finnis!Rachel sits down with Mark Pougatch to talk about a fascinating career that straddles two vastly different eras of women's football in England. As the only girl who attended Bob Wilson's goalkeeper coaching camps as a child, before earning her Liverpool debut at just 15, Rachel went on to play college football in the United States as interest in the women's game started to bloom. Rachel and Mark discuss her formative years in the US, representing England and Great Britain on some of the game's biggest stages and even a summer spent playing on a tiny island off the coast of Iceland!Search ‘Football Ramble’ on social media to find us, and email us here: [email protected].***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.
