One in every team ?

[Rosco]

Talking on the BBC Podcast, Grounded with Louis Theroux, Deeney said: "I would go on record saying that there is probably one gay or bi person in every football team. They're there, they are 100 per cent there.

"I think people that are gay or from that community definitely are very worried about having to shoulder the responsibility of being the first. I think once the first comes out, there would be loads.

"If they came out and said it, I genuinely believe you would get, in the first week, at least 100 people that went 'me too'. Just because they don't want to be the face of it."

 

[dantes]

No you moron, coming out is still the absolute trump card to be played in a tight spot. You'd be an idiot to waste it on some stupid #metoo bullshit.

 

[dantes]

I foresee a player who is 34-35 years old, lost his pace, playing like shit, and the club are not looking like they will offer a new deal. That will be the guy who plays the card. Now the club have no choice, releasing him goes out the window, even a pay cut would be tough to spin.

 

[Rosco]

Look can I cut to the chase here ?

I want to see some speculation on who the gay players are.

 

[Hyena]

I feel like this topic has been done a few times before... But I guess we're due for another round of senseless gay shaming





... before Lovren is sold

Using Dantes criteria... Naby Keita.

Although he might be older than 34/35.

I thought it was Nathaniel Clyne?

Are you out of your god damn mind? He's Muslim, we can rule out Keita, Mane and Salah from the outset. We can also rule out Ox, no way Salah would be mates with him if he were gay. We can also rule out Alisson and Firmino who must be devout catholics.

Did you really just say there are no gay Muslims and Catholics?

 

[StevieM]

Did you really just say there are no gay Muslims and Catholics?

Did you just take something that Dantes said as bearing any resemblance to reality?

I'm just quoting what the quran and bible says.

What the bible says, doesnt stop nonce priests though does it?

 

[refugee]

I thought it was a decent attempt at humour.

Bravo Dantes

 

[dantes]

I imagine the priests are too busy laundering money under the guise of donations to actually sit down and read the bible.

What a waste of all of those lovely frocks.

 

[Halmeister]

Troy Deeney gets so much fucking air time. I eagerly await Danny Rose's thoughts on the issue, too.

 

[MomoWASright]

No doubt Gary Neville will tell us his thoughts. He has a point of view of everything at the moment the cunt.

Hahahahaha. True. And to be followed by some punditry on the issue by Jermaine Jenas.

I guess you've not met many muslims.

 

[dantes]

Are you inviting me to meet some at the re-education camp? I'd be happy to do so.

Not aware there were any re-education camps in Austria.

Jeremy Corbyn begs to differ.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Defo Lallana.

I think we're all aware of that - we're just not complete cunts

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

Defo Lallana.

Lallight in the lalloafers?

 

[SummerOnions]

I think van Dijk makes everyone else gay

 

[Brizzle]

Empty stadiums is the best time to come out - could be 6+ months before fans re-enter stadiums and maybe some of the population might come to terms with this by then.

 

[dantes]

It would be a good opportunity to weaponize it against the opposition, to get them banned for the merest passing reference to sexuality and/or gender which will be picked up on the microphones.

 

[Holle]

There are. Below ground level.

They could have a closet in the centre circle for the gay players to come out of before the match starts.
