Being gay is still illegal in many countries.

However in parts of USA & society being opening MAP is becoming more normalised. 

Someone get this person a JCB for the hole they are digging...

I knew this would get a reaction, again I will say I'm sure some of the players feel the same way but judging by the reaction my sincere question has raised it seems you can't dare say anything these days which is a shame. 

I've undressed for a (good looking) female GP, female Physio, female Radiographer (not all at the same time).

All on a professional basis.

Did it bother me? No. Because I'm a grown up.

Just putting it out there to see what the response would be if a player came out as a MAP, without committing any illegal act.
Would being an open MAP also be classed as being brave & something we should celebrate, in the same way as coming out as gay?

**** me, I actually had to look that up. Are you seriously equating someone being gay with paedophilia? Take a look at yourself, FFS.

What is the general feeling about somebody who is gay i.e finds a member of there own sex physically attractive sharing showers and changing rooms? it's seems to be the Elephant in the room that nobody has yet discussed. I'm not sure I would be comfortable with it personally and am wondering what the players at the club feel about it and whether some might feel a little uncomfortable and ask that he uses separate changing and washing facilities, I would like to add that I have nothing against him for being gay but would be interested to hear what others think about the situation.    

I work with plenty of people and have friends that I find attractive, have got changed with them, etc. I think it's being adult about it. I don't think it's that hard? Also, gay people are like anyone else - they don't just fancy everyone.

Wow did anyone just hear Simon Jordan going off on this? Bizarre 

undoubtably just trying to be contrary but he went in two footed on fashnus niece who was on the show to celebrate this brave move

jordan was trumpeting “I don’t care if he’s gay, it’s his business why do we need to know?” Which was pretty upsetting to listen to.

perfect world, this isn’t a thing of course but for that knob to fail to understand why this is a brave and important thing to do in the sphere of football is absolutely maddening 

Simon Jordan is an egregious nob

Shame there are jokes about this and will be abuse. Just have to hope that the people who make them don’t have family members who are gay.  Can only imagine what it would be like to come out to a family member and be ridiculed for it.  Well done to Jake. Some will say it’s not relevant but listen to opinions from LGBTQ+ people and you will only hear extremely positive reaction to this news 

A former friend's child came out, and was disowned.

Note I say "former friend"...

Let’s hope he doesn’t score against a team who are losing and going for a equaliser,yes that’s right the old commentator saying “they left the back door open”.let’s get the homosexual jokes out the way

Just...no

In any other walk of life, this would be a non-story.

But football is still stuck in the 1970s in many ways, so this is a huge development.

I wish him every happiness, and hope if he appears at AG we give him a fabulous reception.

A familiar story. We were a bloody mess back then, I think people who criticise him and SOD forget what a state we were in. We're still getting over that mess. You'd think we'd learn...

Not sure that’s the best question I’ve ever seen!

Yeah, didn't come out right

Me for one not being local but I still wouldn't rely on it.

Yeah, maybe "rely" is a bit strong...

Because many of us aren't local, so we rely on it

Anyone but Leeds, the entire population are is unbearable.

FTFY

Maybe he's got a twin

I must say, although it's utterly disgusting that Chelski aren't in their blue kit, that yellow kit is quite nice.

Earlier on, the commentators were whining about Liverpool having to play 9 games in 31 days.

FFS. Standard stuff for us...

Sorry, but Scottish football is tinpot.

Listening on the radio. **** me, Dion Dublin is a nob. Adds nothing.

Are there any teenage boys left on Guernsey?

Wycombe. I live nearby!

Leeds.
 

Anyone who can remember the Revie team of the 70s will always hate Leeds.

I can't, but I have met lots of people from Leeds.

C**ts.

When's the new jersey out?

We were walking down a very steep slope and some stones gave way. The sudden jolt aggravated an ACL rupture I had 20 years ago.

That's my pre-season knackered. 

Mate, bummer. I'd wish you a speedy recovery, but... it's not. Stay strong!

To be quite honest, she'd be happier to be never on the lead. Lots of aimless running around by her. Reminds me of Callum O'Dowda.  

Are you releasing her?!
