Coventry fan Hannah has been telling BBC CWR about the new women's network she is part of setting up for Sky Blues supporters.

"It is really nice to feel that you have a community. For example, I don't have loads of other women friends that are into football, so you don't always have a readymade group of people to go with.

"Traditionally, football has been a very male, heterosexual environment, and I think that does feed into many elements of the game.

"Having groups such as Proud Sky Blues and women's groups is really important because I do think our voices are always stronger as a collective.

"The atmosphere at Coventry is good in general. We certainly haven't set up this group because we feel that there's a problem towards women at Coventry."
