Despite these actions, little appears to have changed in the world of football so far, with representation in the women's game appearing to be falling back over the years. Grime artist Saskilla speaks to Premier League footballers, coaches and managers across the UK for answers, and asks, is there a lost generation of black talent in the sport?
