Timeline

1992

Lucy Elizabeth Staniforth-Wilson (née Staniforth; born 2 October 1992) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Women's Super League club Aston Villa and the England women's national team.

Lucy Elizabeth Staniforth was born on 2 October 1992 in York to Sandra and Gordon Staniforth.

She had a footballing family: her father was an attacker who played for York City and Hull City, his hometown club, as well as a host of other clubs, and her brother, Thomas, older by twelve years, was a defender for Sheffield Wednesday's reserve and youth sides.

Despite this, she credits a primary school PE teacher who was particularly encouraging of the girls to try football for getting her into the sport; she played for her school team and the Copmanthorpe boys' team in York.

2001

Thomas died suddenly at the age of 20 in 2001, prompting the family to move to Alnwick in Northumberland shortly afterwards.

Staniforth joined the local school on the same day as future teammate Lucy Bronze, with their houses backing onto each others'.

They quickly became friends and played for club and school together; Bronze's mother was a teacher at the local high school, with Staniforth and Bronze allowed to play for the Sixth Form team even when in middle school.

The pair attended the Duchess's Community High School together, continuing to play in the team there, with Staniforth later remarking that it was funny how they were so small playing with older students and that "the other schools must have thought [they] were in sixth form for about six years".

During her career, Staniforth has worn the number 37, Thomas' squad number with Sheffield Wednesday.

She played a match with Lincoln Ladies on the tenth anniversary of his death, scoring the first goal in their 3–0 victory, and revealed a t-shirt paying tribute to Tom as her celebration.

She is openly lesbian and married her wife, Laura, in December 2022.

Bronze and other youth team friends Jordan Nobbs and Demi Stokes were among Staniforth's bridesmaids, though a UEFA Women's Champions League match was scheduled on the same day.

In March 2023 she had recently completed a master's degree in football directorship, saying she intended to work for and make successful the Newcastle women's team in the future.

Upon moving to Alnwick, Staniforth was too old to continue playing with boys, and her parents were unaware of other opportunities in the area.

2004

They were advised to speak with Diane Bronze, a neighbour and advocate for girls' football; Diane suggested Staniforth join Blyth Town's girls' side with her daughter, Lucy Bronze, which she did in about 2004.

Blyth Town was impressively organised and gave many opportunities to the girls' team at the time, including sending them on a pre-season tour of the United States.

While in high school, Bronze, a year older than Staniforth, joined Sunderland; despite being a fan of rivals Newcastle United and only fourteen, Staniforth also joined the club, saying that she mostly copied whatever Bronze did.

From the moment they joined Sunderland, the teenagers were aiming for the first team, which Staniforth began playing for at the age of sixteen.

During her early formative years at the club, Staniforth played with players she described as "pivotal in paving the way towards England becoming a top side"; as well as Bronze, Nobbs, and Stokes, this included Jill Scott, Steph Houghton and Carly Telford.

2009

In her first season in senior football, she was instrumental in helping Sunderland win the FA Women's Premier League Northern Division and reach the 2009 FA Women's Cup final, where they were beaten 2–1 by Arsenal.

The following season, Staniforth figured prominently as a key player in Sunderland's success as they finished fifth in their first season back at the top level.

2010

Upon Sunderland's failed bid to join the FA WSL in 2010, Staniforth joined successful applicant, Lincoln Ladies.

She started every game in her first season at the club, netting three times.

The most notable of her goals in her first season in the Women's Super League came in the away fixture at Doncaster Belles.

Staniforth helped her side reach fourth place in the league.

2012

In the 2012 season, Staniforth bettered her goalscoring tally substantially, scoring on a further 6 occasions in all competitions.

In the two ultimate games of the season, she scored winning goals for Lincoln: an extravagant lob from 35 yards against Everton Ladies, and against Chelsea Ladies, lifting the side to fifth in the table.

In December 2012, it was announced that Staniforth would be joining Bristol Academy, against whom she had scored twice in the preceding 2012 FA WSL season.

Staniforth scored her first goal for the club in the home fixture against Doncaster Rovers Belles, with a 22-yard drive.

In her first season at the Stoke Gifford Stadium, Staniforth reached the second FA Women's Cup final of her career.

During the match she suffered a serious knee injury and was stretchered off.

2014

After only a short time at the club, Staniforth subsequently spent the remainder of the season sidelined, with plans to return in time for the 2014 season.

Bristol ended the season runners-up, losing 2–0 on the final day of the season to champions Liverpool.

In February 2014, Staniforth joined reigning FA WSL champions Liverpool for a reported five-figure fee.

Staniforth sustained an injury during pre-season, this time to the anterior cruciate ligament in her other leg, which put her out of action for the entirety of the 2014 season.

Despite Staniforth's injury, which ruled her out for the entire season, Liverpool went on to win the FA WSL title for the second consecutive year.

2016

In January 2016, Staniforth left Liverpool and returned to Sunderland on a two-year contract.

2017

At the beginning of the 2017 season, Lucy was awarded penalty-taking responsibilities for her club.

In both the fifth and sixth round of the FA Women's Cup, against Aston Villa and Chelsea respectively, Staniforth scored from the penalty spot.

She then scored on two further occasions in the league, from the spot against her old club Bristol City and directly from a corner against Yeovil Town with the outside of her foot.
