What made you want to try VMFC out for the first time:

 

I just wanted to play football when I moved here, and being in a gay relationship I felt it would be easier to explain and felt that I would feel more comfortable around those who were more welcoming about it. Manchester Football Gay Friendly in google VMFC came up right away so it was an easy choice. 

 

Why should new players join VMFC: 

 

Well for me, to play football, I want people joining who are going to give the amount of energy and time as many of the current players do. We are a football club first and foremost. Join to play football, and play it well, and then have a blast afterward. Just ask anyone who has ever gone on tour with us.
