New features on our website

We are gradually adding more content to our website. You may have already seen our maps:

https://footballs-black-pioneers.com/about/footballs-black-pioneers-where-were-they-born/

These allow you to see where the first black players featured in ‘Football’s Black Pioneers’ were from.

You may also have checked out the timeline which shows some of the key dates in football’s black British history:

The most recent addition is a collection of programmes:

https://footballs-black-pioneers.com/about/programmes-etc/

Only a few clubs feature on the drop down menu at the top of that page at the moment but the intention is to add more over the coming weeks, so do keep an eye on it if you are interested in old programmes.

There is also a ‘films’ page which includes links to a small number of relevant interviews with or about football’s black pioneers and there is even a calypso that we commissioned:

Enjoy!
