The TOHIF Podcast

In this episode we look at how the problem of online hate in football affects players. Emotional Welfare Specialist, Sue Parris talks us through her experiences in helping players cope with this issue.

Sue is then joined by Leeds Beckett University academics, Dr Daniel Kilvington and Professor Thomas Fletcher for a wider discussion on the attitudes of clubs and players to the problem. Dan and Tom draw from extensive interviews with academy, senior and retired players across England.

This episode provides listeners with an insight into the mental and emotional impacts experienced by players and the support (or lack thereof) they receive from their clubs and coaches.
