In search of a gay soccer hero: The Secret Footballer on homophobia - CNN.com

If you didn't see it.

Yes, an article about homophobia mentions us. Some of you won't like that.

But anyway, I thought it was an interesting point about if we're in the premierSHIP next year, the issue will get a lot more headlines.

I suppose it will, it was the last thing on my mind when dreaming of the top flight to be honest. But he's probably right.

He also mentions the chants he has heard whilst playing against us. As with the O/P, I had not really thought this through. But, I guess he is right - if we were to get promoted, it may well lead the authorities (i.e. the FA) to look into homophobia and football.

A Good article - I remember listening to Kenneth Horne when I was a child. and thinking it was very funny even though the reason why went straight over my head. It is much funnier now.

But I always find it difficult to believe that any premiership footballer can write so intelligently so frequently and so thoughtfullty on such a wide range of subjects.
