Not at all based on are you being served, based on the experience I've had working with gay guys, whom none have shown the slightest interest in sport. (1) See my paragraph above for my own experience. (2) Fair point. (3) I disagree (see my first paragraph and post 193 as to why) but without...

No i was expressing an opinion and have done so on a number of different posts on this thread.

****as WELL******

Not exactly sure what you mean? I'm not 'after' anything on here apart from a debate.

No females as you.

Or could it maybe the case that most gay fans aren't that interested in sport? Stereotypical i know but hey, I've worked with a few amount of gay blokes down the years never known any of them to have any interest in any sport. Maybe that is one of the reasons we dont see lot of gay couples...

And me.

Who knows? I cant answer for them. Perhaps some gay couples could come on here and say whether they would be inhibited. Incidently I've been to football, cricket, rugby and horse racing in the last year and I've not once seen a gay couple holding hands at any of these events. The rugby was at...

I agree with you on that and i acknowledge that everyone has the right to express on opinion.

I dont think singing 'we can see you holding hands' reinforces the perception that football crowds are anti gay, as i really dont consider it to be anti gay singing that. So therefore i dont think it reflects badly on clubs when it fans sing it.

Why sing them? Just part of the banter that goes on between football fans. I'm sure 99% of fans who sing them have nothing against gay people the same way brighton fans who sing 'does she take it up the a*&e' couldn't really care less if she does or not the same way that most brighton fans who...

I think it is 'banter' and its only over the last 2 seasons its been elevated to 'homophobia.' How can 'does you're boyfriend know you're here' and 'we can see you holding hands' be seen as anything but banter? I guess the fact its now seen as homophobia is symptomatic of the sanitised society...

Simmo i am just a drinking fan like you!! It was easy to predict the content of the programme!!!!

I wasn't far off!!!!

Is that really the best they could do to demonstrate the 'problem' of rascist and homophobic abuse in football? A tiny minority of 'fans' singing some songs? The one showing rascism against Daniel Stuuridge was almost laughable (not condoning btw) but a few pre pubescent lads singing abusive...

I can imagine the intro will be allowing the following lines: 'Football the game loved by millions, played by multi million pound superstars in modern purpose built stadiums, enjoyed in an atmosphere a world apart from the 70s and 80's when it was plagued by violent gangs fighting each other...

You are having a laugh surely? You could not ask for a more gentler atmosphere than the Amex!! How an earth can the odd chant of 'we can see you holding hands' constitute an 'intimidatory atmosphere?'

DA i'll await with interest!!!!

'We pay you're benefits and dont go whinging about us singing this cos its not a protected characteristic under the 2010 equality act' ...................I reckon this chant could really catch on!!!!

Here we go again.......we were made to look like a bunch of over sensitive souls last year on the BBC when they filmed the bobble hat brigade on the Costa express moaning about 'homohpobic abuse' no doubt tomorrow will be more of the same..................is the chant 'does you're boyfriend know...
