In the latest episode of Let Me Be Frank, Bianca Westwood catches up with her hero Frank McAvennie to relive some magical West Ham memories from the terraces of Upton Park.
And she recalls how tough it was trying to smash through the glass ceiling which female football journalists face.
Also in this episode:
Walking down Green Street felt magical
Managers disrespected me and I wasn’t allowed in the tunnel
The glass ceiling for women in football is still there
I didn’t care that men ripped my looks apart - I knew more about football than them
If I made the slightest mistake I was terrorised, I couldn’t sleep or eat
