OGT speaks to Rupa Ghelani who was an inspiration behind the creation of this very podcast!

A native Manc, Rupa is a Manchester United season ticket holder and she has worked in the club for the Social Media team and more recently, the club museum.

However, it was whilst she was at university and finishing off her Masters that she started looking into the question of why there are so few Asian footballers.

As part of her final project, she created a video with an impressive amount of research and contacts tackling the problem of lack of Asians in football.

She's now been inspired to start coaching and will be setting up a Manchester United Asians fan group.

Asians in football... we're getting there.
