FA to ban transgender women from women’s football under new rules - ITV News

"The FA says among the 10-plus million who play recreational or grassroots football in England, only 20 transgender players are registered. There are no trans women in the professional game. It adjusted its policy only a few weeks ago, introducing marginally stricter eligibility rules, but those changes have now been superseded."

20 in 10 Million. Says it all.
