"CARRIE HAS DUNN WELL WITH BOOK!" --The Non-League Paper
"A fantastic and unique insight into the world of women's football in England." --Jacqui Oatley, BBC sports presenter and journalist
"Carrie Dunn is an exceptional journalist, perceptive and inquisitive." --Iain Macintosh, football writer
"Spent a year following some of the most famous - and not so famous - female footballers in the country, to see what the holds for women's football. Tells the tale of an increasingly popular, yet still underrepresented sport." --SheKicks.net
"A well thought out and well researched piece of work that covers the women's game from top to bottom. A comprehensive overview of the football pyramid in this country, raising questions and discussing important issues that impact those involved in the game. There's something here for everyone." --Kieran Theivam, women's football writer
"Superbly researched and with excellent access to players and officials alike, Carrie Dunn's book is a fascinating, and essential, survey of the state of women's football." - Football writer Alex Stewart
Selected as one of four Books of the Month in The Football Book Calendar, August to November 2016. -- OfPitchAndPage.com
"Crisp and humane writing. I wish I had the psychic or persuasive powers to push The Roar of the Lionesses up on to the bestseller lists. A book that is rooted in the joy and pain of sport. Not only do 'the girls' know how to play football as well or better than 'the boys'; the best of 'em write about it just as well as the boys do too." --ByTheBookReviews.blogspot.co.uk
"Uses the fruits of her extensive research to examine the state of play in the women's game across the board. The result is a blend of the inspirational, the aspirational and the downright irritated." --When Saturday Comes
"Rivetingly insightful and beautifully researched, and an entertaining account of a world I hadn't known much about." --Julie Welch
"An excellent read. Maintains a positive position on a sport with so much potential and edging ever closer to breaking into the mainstream, while exploring the issues undermining its development. Stardust from World Cup heroes, just as much grit from those for whom the sport is a passion bordering on compulsion." --Racing Post
"The unrivalled account of the rise, and rise, of an England women's football team to the top of their game." --PhilosophyFootball.com
Millions watched the 2015 Women's World Cup as the England Lionesses roared in Canada, winning bronze. Their fighting spirit and fabulous skill captured the fascination of the entire country as their campaign unfolded in the small hours of the 2015 summer mornings. On the back of this success, attendances in the FA Women's Super League increased, as interest in women's football accelerated. Top stars talked enthusiastically about the dawn of a new era for women's football. Carrie Dunn spent a year following some of the most famous - and not so famous - female footballers in the country, to see what the future holds for women's football. Can the smaller, lower-profile teams ever compete with the big bucks and big names of the Women's Super League? How are grassroots clubs going to rise to the top when elite divisions of women's football depend on the award of licences? Can the women win a World Cup before the men do? And if they do, what reward and recognition will they get? Roar of the Lionesses tells the tale of an increasingly popular, yet still woefully underrepresented sport.
