[Lord Snooty]

I wear rainbow laces all year round and I wish the footballers would.

As for the recent rumpus. The Ipswich lad has clearly shown he is extremely homophobic and shouldn't be allowed in a football stadium. Same with the Man Utd player who news is just coming out about. If the FA are serious about zero tolerance against homophobes, those two should be banned.

We all know though that that is never going to happen.

As for the Palace lad. What on earth are they on about? How is "Jesus loves you" offensive? That's the main point about Christianity. Jesus loves you. Jesus loves us all. Including the LGBTQ+ community.

You can't do religious messages? Stop singing God Save The King then!

The Ipswich lad is just a big fat hypocrite as well. He won't wear the rainbow armband because it's against his religious beliefs. But he's willing to turn out in a shirt emblazened with a logo of a betting company. Prick!

If he really didn't want to wear it, he should've given up the captaincy for the day.

Is the campaign working, Dev? I can't answer that. Do you feel safer walking down the street these days? Surely it must be better than when we were kids. I got beat up for being, as my attackers said, a "queer bastard". I'm not gay though, but I do support anybody who is, to live their lives any way they please.

And I would love it. Love it. If on rainbow laces weekend, every Premier League team walked out to the sound of Tom Robinson singing Glad To Be Gay.
