What reports? I'm pretty confident the average football fan isn't equatable to inbreeds.

I do hope so .. I have my doubts though

I don’t think the opponents dare say anything whatever they thought but I fear the opposing fans will be a problem

Absolute rubbish.

They may make chants at football, but that's just part of being a British football fan, and being British in general, that's what us British do, it's our humour, it's in our DNA, we take the pi55 out of each other and ourselves. The large majority of People don't hate gays.

I think it's tough for anyone coming out, yes, more so in the media.

It's their problem if they hate you. You'll just hate yourself more if you hide who you truly are.

I think the support you would get would outweigh the bad.

Times need to change

You say that like there are thousands of openly gay footballers, until they start punishing the bigots then stories like these will be a once in a generation

Awww, that's subjective... Not that being cute has anything to do with it

A lot of gay men and women care because they would understand and empathise with what it's like.

It's such an ignorant thing to say, 'who cares'.

Living in your ivory tower

Thomas Hitzlsperger played for Aston Villa, he's gay. I can't remember it being a big deal.

He came out after retirement

Denver 16-05-2022 06:33 PM

People saying its not a big deal yet there is a reason why players don't come out and the blame mostly lies with the fans

Alf 16-05-2022 06:43 PM

Didn't the former Newcastle player, Darren Ambrose come out? I remember something about him and Will Young having some sort of relationship.

There's been many rumours over the years of gay football players, don't know if they were true or not but names like Sol Campbell, John o'shea and James McFadden were rumoured.

Fans are constant homophobes and racists when things don't go there way, anyone who does not accept this news should be giving life long bans from the game as its not the sport fir them

What do you mean by accept this news?

There's tens of thousands of gays all over the country, many of which are likely to be in the families of football fans. There's very likely to be a fair few football fans who are gay. Nobody's bothered about people's sexuality. It's time to stop playing the victim and just accept that gays are accepted and in many cases adored in this country.

You say 'nobody'? How insulting and bull****.

We have come a long way, but to say 'nobody' is more than ridiculous.

Are you gay? If not then don't talk for people you have no ****ing clue about. The ignorance is astounding

Don't understand your second part, but the first part is absurd.
