Delighted to say that today I interviewed a 90+ year old woman who played for Manchester Corinthians at formation in 1949. Incredible meeting her &hearing her stories. If all goes to plan she’ll be coming to our plaque unveiling commemorating the history of this pioneering team.

Sale Sharks 🦈 thanks for spelling our name wrong 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Women’s football has a long history in Manchester. Come and celebrate the Manchester Corinthians contribution which started in 1949. We’re trying to track down more former players look at these (thread) & see if you spot anyone you know then read this: gjfootballarchive.com/2023/09/07/man…

- First a few names… These are from early 1950s. The team had a continuous history from 1949 through to 1980s then it became Woodley Ladies before ceasing c.1989.

Next a few photos…. 1950s and at Belle Vue.

And a few more… Notice Manchester United legend Johnny Carey on one of these. Did your nan ever talk about him presenting medals to her team?

A few more… Belle Vue in the 50s; Corinthians in green & black stripes in 1982 and in 1970 as they prepared for a trip to France.

The final selection for the moment…

Frank Swift was for many years a truly great England international goalkeeper and only last week I interviewed a 90+ year old woman who said he was her hero. Great memories. Previously I’ve written this Swift profile gjfootballarchive.com/2022/12/26/fra…
