The development of women’s football in Scotland, 1880-1939
Scotland has in the last 100 years at least, had a problematic
relationship with women’s football. It was the last European Football
Association to formally recognise the women’s game in 1974. It has often
been assumed and perpetuated by the press, that the women’s game only
began to develop in Scotland from the 1960s onwards, culminating with
the founding of Scottish Women’s Football Association (SFWA) in 1971. At
a time when the profile of the women’s game has taken on a new
significance within Scottish culture it seems right to explore and
celebrate its long yet under discussed history and heritage. This
lecture will focus on the initial findings of Professor Skillen’s
current research project for FIFA which maps the development of women’s
football in Scotland from the 1880s to the outbreak of World War Two.

pressing the flesh in Silicon Valley with new generation of tech

It sounds apocryphal but I'm told it's true. How a budding tech tycoon
travelled for a solid 27 hours from Scotland's Silicon Glen to Silicon
Valley. As he emerged from LAX customs, the venture capitalist he was
due to meet shepherded him into a reserved side room for a 3-minute
elevator pitch, 5 minutes but only if there's time. An article by Bill
Magee.
