DarcheVinny 1,003 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 When are we going to raise awareness for the white, able-bodied, heterosexual, non-religious, British male who doesn't get the special treatment that all the 'minority' groups get?

simon 1,743 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I fucking hate these stupid gimmicks they force on football. I'm all for equality, anti-homophobia etc. but getting players to wear laces doesn't matter a fuck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essandoh 21,224 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 'FIRST THE ASIANS GET THEIR OWN TOURNY THEN OUR PLAYERS ARE FORCED TO WEAR RAINBOW LACES'This forum never fails to amuse me.Seriously though, reasonably good idea with the right motives but its hardly going to make a difference. I'm sure there's like two openly-gay professional footballers worldwide, is there not? Bloke in Sweden and a guy in the US. Probably wrong. Point is, I doubt some guy is going to embark on an act of supreme courage in this football culture and announce his sexuality publicly because a group of players wore colourful laces. If it was that simple there'd be plenty already out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Personally I dont think it is quite so blantanly stereotypical enough.I would think it far more appropriate that all the players wear pink fairy wings and skip round the pitch all match.Anyone that runs or sounds vaguely aggressive should be shown a pink card indicating that they must go to special dug out do a dance routine with a native american, construction worker and policeman.

GOAT 30,449 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 So...we're being told all the time, especially in this country football should be about football, nothing else, that football and politics don't miss.
