We also chat about the vital role @blazefc plays in Jacob’s life, being visible in journalism and some top tips for people hoping to get into the industry.
Also, excuse my croaky voice - we recorded this as I had laryngitis, so I’m a bit… squeaky!

Rupa was a pleasure to be around whenever we saw her, playing in such a great spirit and wonderful company off the pitch.
A beautiful soul, we will miss you.
Leftfooters FC@Leftfooters
Today we learnt of the very sad news that one of our players, one of our family has sadly passed away. Rupa was the very epitome of what the club stood for, a colourful character so full of humour. Those who knew her were richer for it. Our condolences to her friends and family

Our marathon Sunday might not have ended in the result we wanted, but another great trip in the @gfsnUK to face @NottmLionsFC.
Huge thanks to @CadentGasLtd whose continued support in LGBTQ football helps teams around the country to play in this wonderful league.

Everyone here at Blaze stands shoulder to shoulder with Troy Deeney, a man who with his commitment to highlighting social and racial inequalities, makes us proud on and off the pitch.
Racism can have no place in our sport.

"I got racially abused last night by one of my own fans." "When you look at the board of the FA and it's all 60-year-old white people, it doesn't affect them." @T_Deeney speaks out on racism in football

Might not have been Blues' night tonight, but Blaze carry the week on tomorrow evening with our weekly training and free football for all session.
We've been lucky enough to have had some fantastic people join the club since we started these, and you could be the next.

Great to be using the ticket allocation at @BCFC thanks to their continued brilliant support of Blaze.
Here's hoping the second brings us three points.

At a time when football feels like a hostile place for the LGBTQ+ community - @birminghamblaze have started putting on free training sessions with the aim of getting more people from the community into the sport
A great scheme run by a great bunch 🏳️🌈⚽️

You may have heard JP mention our player who grew up in the same region of the world as Qatar. We could not be prouder that he chose to share his experience with the BBC.
Huge thanks to @LR_Wolstenholme for giving him a platform and amplifying his voice.
