The She Kicks Locker Room: The Menu with Evie Clarke (London City Lionesses)

The Locker Room’s food slot goes to London City Lionesses forward Evie Clarke, an Essex twin with a reputation as a dressing-room joker and, the standfirst reports, a firm dislike of the classic football food that is the banana – the smell makes her cringe and she has to move away when someone opens one. Her big-treat answers split by venue: an Indian takeaway, because she loves spicy food, or Italian if she is eating out, on the grounds that she will eat anything. Pre-match is seeded bread, two slices of toast with baked beans, scrambled egg and mushrooms. Galaxy cookie crumble makes an appearance among the things she would eat more of if she could. The Menu is interrupted by the Captain’s Chat with Reading’s Natasha Harding and picks up again two pages later.
