History: Michelle Prouten, Matildas Cap #82

Michelle played two A internationals – once as a substitute versus Japan and once as a starter, against New Zealand. Also played state representative cricket.

Groubes vine:

“Yet another talented NSW player, a pacy striker who was dangerous in the air close to goal. She was the life of the party at National Championship presentation nights, and a good team player.”

Hot Topics

“The announcement that the Kirkcaldy football club was signing the former Clyde striker – who was found by a civil court in 2017 to have raped a woman – prompted anger and disgust from supporters and a string of resignations of senior Raith officials.”

Scotland’s first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, said: “What it effectively seemed to be saying was it didn’t matter how a man treated a woman, the only thing that mattered to them was whether he could score goals for the football club.”

According to this BBC article: “Two directors resigned in protest, sponsors withdrew and its women’s team moved to sever ties with the club.”

Raith Rovers have since stated that Goodwillie will not play for the club and they are now discussing the player’s contractual position with him.
