We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Help with the developement of womens football and turn it into a paid profession. More details
Submitted by Michael Cunningham – Deadline to sign up by: 24 November 2007 – Signatures: 37
More details from petition creator
As proved by the recent womens world cup the game needs to be a paid profession if we are to stand a chance of matching the likes of the USA or the old enemy Germany. As well as they did,if the England ladies were professional then they could have been the first England team to win a major trophy since 1966. I think this country is underachieving in sports, and it's simply due to no support from organisations and the fact that these athletes have to devote their time between their sports and jobs.
