The FT visits Lewes, a small fanowned football team in the south of England, which pays female players the same wages as the men’s team; and Arsenal, which has a longestablished women's team. As English Premier League clubs start to invest in the women's game, we examine whether women's football should replicate the structure and feel of the men's game or establish an identity of its own
