Fatherhood turned me into a bit of a women's football superfan

One of the many upsides of being a parent is that it tends to broaden your cultural horizons.

Since I became a dad nearly 16 years ago, I've learned the names of the members of both One Direction and Little Mix, watched every Disney film at least seven times, have formed a close affinity with Mr Tumble and Daddy Pig and discovered that I don't actually hate musical theatre.

Aside from rejoining the Scouting movement (long suffering readers will know I recently became a Cub leader) the main added pleasure that parenthood has brought me is my love for women's football.
