Joe Jacobson is one of only a few current British Jewish professional footballers. Until very recently, Joe served as the captain for the Wycombe Wanderers where he played for ten years and made 400 appearances. He was also the former under-21 captain for Wales and the first Jewish player to score a goal in a professional game at Wembley in 53 years.
In this episode, Joe discusses racism against Jews in football and recounts his own experience of antisemitism and the effect it has had on his life.
