Would you stop supporting Spurs if they signed a gay player?

[WorcesterTHFC]

Or they were Chelsea supporters.

I'm sure some people here can remember the reception Chelscum fans gave Paul Canoville about 35 years ago.

.......if they signed a gay player?

According to this

http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/37779847

8% of football fans would stop supporting their club if they signed a gay player.

Surely they're all Chelsea / West Ham fans.

Closet bumders surely!?

 

[jonathanhotspur]

I'd never turn my back on Lamela.

 

[Woodyy]

I literally couldn't care less if someone is gay or not, can't believe 8% of fans would care, I don't agree with that figure..

 

[UncleBuck]

Have the media got some dirt on someone and they are trying to get them to 'come out' on their own accord before they do their own 'exclusive'?
All it's been the last week or so is 'where are the gay players' from the media? Who cares? So what if there are gay players, I couldn't give a toss. The media need to stop searching for this flag bearing champion of gayness, imagine the uproar if they acted in the same way about Peers in the Commons or Farmers.
The fixation the media have on this non subject is perverse and morally flawed.

 

[widmerpool]

I cannot imagine there being any uproar if there were articles about the possibility of gay farmers. Who do you think would take umbrage? Farmers? Armchair agriculture supporters?

 

[oskathegobshite]

Don't give a monkeys. Nor does anyone, clearly

 

[SandroClegane]

I'd actually think it would be awesome that Spurs were trail blazers in the PL by signing a gay player, and it would definitely add to our support.

Who gives a shit what someone does in their private life as long as it's nothing illegal?

 

[Matrix]

Couldn't give a f**k.

 

[newbie]

Aren't gay people supposed to be one in ten, so that would mean only two percent of football fans are out of the closet right?

I thought that's a figure made up by someone who is gay, like all men are 20% gay ( yea right )

I don't care if a players straight or gay, be more pissed off if they were lazy and shit.

Never bothered me someone's sexuality I don't think I even take notice, had a few staff come out as gay no one has given a shit still the same person, if they had come out supporting Arsenal probably had a far bigger reaction at work.

 

[Kingstheman]

No.

No player is bigger than Spurs and coming out is the player's own prerogative.

 

[DIEHARD]

Nah couldnt care less and to be honest... just means more for me.. i wish every guy was gay... id have a fucking chance with the ladieeeeees

 

[mill]

I'd never turn my back on Lamela.

No you'd be alright he looks more like a lesbian

 

[Gassin's finest]

Well I'd go gay for Ginola or Hugo, so whatevs...

 

[southlondonyiddo]

Only if it was Judas.

SPOT ON

When Rsol was here we all supported him. I know he wasn't openly gay but....

 

[thfc1973]

Only ever Supported 1 Club, I Don't Care if you are Gay, Trans, Black,White,I do care you give 150% with the shirt on Tottenham Hotspur for life man

Hold up a minute...Trans!??? No no no. Sorry but I draw the line at Trans. You cant have a Tranny playing fro Spurs. That's not possible.

Who knows. It's an old one. In all honesty I don't even know why I clicked on the thread other than laziness.

 

[muppetman]

2016 and this is still something to debate?

Who the fuck genuinely cares?

 

[Johnny J]

Of course I wouldn't, because I'm not a homophobic bigot.

Society needs a zero-tolerance policy on issues like this. Sadly, right wing politics are on the rise, and I'm less optimistic than ever that these disgusting, archaic, ignorant attitudes will simply die out with the closed-minded bigots who hold them.

 

[Syn_13]

Oh noes. What if they touch another player's balls?!!

Seriously, it's a stupid question.

Hold up a minute...Trans!??? No no no. Sorry but I draw the line at Trans. You cant have a Tranny playing fro Spurs. That's not possible.
