The Straight Shootin' View Episode 167 - Rebecca Welch & Sam Allison, Refs breaking barriers

Pitch Talk Podcast

Rebecca Welch as the first Female Premier League Referee & Sam Allison being the first Black Premier League Ref for 15 years, barriers broken down?

On this episode of The Straight Shootin' View, our co-host Straight Shootin' LJA discusses the news that we will see the Premier League's first Female Referee ever on December 23rd 2023 and the first Black Premier League Referee since Uriah Rennie in 2008 on Boxing Day 2023.

SSLJA discusses the significance of both appointments and the fact that even though there are naysayers, both Rebecca Welch and Sam Allison deserve the spots they've been awarded based on their work throughout the football pyramid and how significant they could be in encouraging others.
