"It's already gotten a lot better." A phrase that came up again and again. Do we have to accept that football will never be perfect? After all, society isn't perfect anyway.

But misogyny in football does exist, and although things have "gotten a lot better," there is a long way to go before we can talk about equality.

This features series is about the women in football. Whether they are in the stadium, in the office, or in the fandom. It's time to tell the stories of how British football is in 2022; what has improved? What needs to change? And why do so many women love this often problematic environment?
