In this special podcast, we hear from four former players who have lived experience of sexual abuse at professional football clubs, but who are also on The FA Survivor Support and Safeguarding Advisory Group.   They do not speak for the FA - they will be speaking with their own voices, giving their own opinions.   Colin Harris, once with Chelsea FC and Gary Cliffe, formerly of Manchester City FC. Plus, two other members of the panel who are to remain anonymous and we’ll be calling Bill &amp; Dave.
