England player coming out on sunday

[SaintHacker]

quality, spat my beer just then.

In all honesty who really cares? I guess some parts of society will but on the whole its just a (if true) newspaper trying to sell a few copies extra

Exactly.
I actually hope it does happen, and its a big name player. Then hopefully it will break the whole stigma surrounding, a few more will make the decision to come out and we can just get on with the football again

Do we really need the big build up to this? I'm sorry but are people really that bothered about some one else's sexuality?

 

[FairwayDodger]

Outrageous or just unbelievable ... I'd go as far to say that it shouldn't be on my screen.

FD, When are we playing for a pound? :ears:

We should try and get a round in the next few weeks! Any idea when they're going off mats?

I'm not sure when (exactly) but I'd make a guess at another 2 weeks to go. The next pound coin that you get that looks good, keep it

Lol, I'll look forward to doubling it up! :thup:

Back on topic please ladies and gents.

Ive learnt that some opinions are best kept to yourself.

 

[louise_a]

The reason they come out in public is that if they don't and then a tabloid gets hold of a story about them, it will get splashed all over the place, its better to do it on your own terms.

 

[Foxholer]

Good luck to him. It shouldn't do but I guess it takes some cojones.

Er. Freudian slip? :rofl:

Agree with the sentiment though.

 

[Pin-seeker]

Why make such a big deal about it tho?
Wait until sunday to find out who the gay footballer is,is milking it slightly.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Indicative of the age we leave in. Anything for a story and some papers never let the truth or feeling stand in the way. I hope it will be done in conjunction with the player but fear its another publish and be damned story

 

[SocketRocket]

Who ever he is I guess it will be so hard for him to get over the trauma. A new Maserati and Rolex will go a long way though!

I guess it may be a Sunday 'exclusive' as the player may be playing on Saturday...thus lessening some chance of the pure idiots who believe it effects the game and that it really matters...and then by next weekend, the 'furore' will have died down. Might be completely off the mark...but you never know.

whoever it is I very very much doubt it'll have died down by next week, fans sing about Munich,Heysel and Hillsborough so I can't see them not singing about a player's sexuality.

Raheem Sterling.

Not if it's with the Sun it's not!

And having 3 kids at 18 suggests otherwise as well

This is another Evertonian Taxi Driver Rumour.

These sort of rumours always get spouted around whenever liverpool fc have a decent young player playing well and 9/10 times a blue taxi driver will tell you it. Fact.

 

[Hacker Khan]

Did I miss the big announcement then?

 

[Doon frae Troon]

Looks like he decided to stay in.
