What a Fool to set this Account up
what the hell did He Expect? He was due to Name Himself but got so scared he deleted the account. [Justin Fashanu's niece has told Sky News she is "upset" and "disheartened" after a social media user who claimed he was about to come out as a gay footballer appeared to have deleted his account. The anonymous Twitter account, known as The Gay Footballer, had gained more than 40,000 followers but it was disabled on Tuesday evening - the day before he had suggested he would reveal his identity. Sky News has spoken to the purported footballer - who said he was an English player with a Championship club - but could not verify if his claims were true.] https://news.sky.com/story/justin-fa...leted-11769292 Last edited by arista; 24-07-2019 at 09:49 AM. |

I never quite said that.
Systemic discrimination is virtually dead, but that doesn't mean individuals can't be bigoted. For example, this footballer deleted his twitter because he got cold feet. He wasn't forced to by the FA. |

Parm said something like that too. I think it was in the context of pride marches? In this case there's a culture of discrimination in the whole of male football, and probably other team sports to a lesser degree |

Everything we need is enshrined in law, and seeing degeneracy which is featured in some Pride parades isn't going to change any minds. I also said I think more public figures should come out to help to normalise gayness, which is obviously acknowledging it's not all peaches and rainbows. |

Quand il pleut, il pleut

...I guess he has his reasons for deleting it and he’ll come out if and when it feels right...

Is there a reason why people didn't automatically assume this was some fantasist on the internet looking for attention? Anyone can create an anonymous Twitter and pretend to be a footballer. Did he offer some sort of validation to be taken so seriously?
