What would be even more amazing is if a dozen or so from the squad all turn up at a press conference and all the journos are mumbling about a good show of solidarity, standing behind their team-mate etc, then for one of them to announce that they are in fact all gay and the meeting is actually to out Cleverly as the only straight player in the entire squad.

Moyes would then release a statement saying that he's, "a fantastic young lad who is developing all the time. He will one day be a great gay. He never gives it less than 100%, and for that reason alone he will succeed at his dream of one day being gay enough to mix it up with the big boys" or something. maybe.
You mean like a Spartacus moment?

All the players taking it in turn to stand up and proclaim "I am the gay", just like Spartacus.

It would defeat the object tbh, I hope the person in question stands loud and proud. It's none of my business and I couldn't care less about a players sexuality. It will be used against them, but society will stand behind them.

If the Sun is now retracting the story, then it can only be because the player doesn't want it published. It's a shame if that's the case as Football does need it to bring the meathead supporters into the 21st century. and a lot of those meatheads read that pile of shite

Anyone think that the sun did something untoward in getting this information and then blackmailed him into doing an exclusive? Ie: we've got these photos that we're going to print but we won't if you give us an exclusive?


I fucking hate that scummy newspaper :mad::mad::mad: I'd love to see it brought to knees and violated again and again.

No, they'd never do that. Again. Not after Steven Gately.

How long until Sol Campbell starts talking about how he could have been the worlds best openly gay player but the FA/Spurs fans made him keep quiet?

Am I allowed to speculate or is that not what we're doing here? Well anyhow, I've been convinced that Smalling might be gay for some time. Just listen to his voice. Think he's had/has a girlfriend but, you know....

I really couldn't give a shit. Why does being gay have to be news? It's the 21st fucking century. Can't wait for a time when people just didn't give a shit about these things and let people live normal lives. There's probably hundreds of gay footballers out there, they should just all come out and let the small-minded prats just deal with it.

It's not the 21st century for everyone alas. For some it is the middle ages.

So the player hasn't come out today then?

There's a few gay people on here, not that it really matters.
