Perhaps they are the few because they're afraid to walk into football grounds.Pathetic, saw the bloke from the Football League talking about it before, his first few words were along the lines of "when some people walk into a football stadium, they don't feel inclusive."
He mentioned talking to different football fans groups, why not give what majority of football fans want instead of pandering to the few.
HmmmmmmmmmmPerhaps because they are the few because they're afraid to walk into football grounds.
Do you disagree? Is there not a place in football grounds for 'other' people? Gay people, Asian people , camp people? Yes, it would be odd I'd some of these people didn't want to be involved. But is it wrong if they did?Hmmmmmmmmmm
What do the majority of football fans want? Not rainbow coloured balls? Why does it bother you if it’s a rainbow coloured ball? And if that’s making someone else feel included how’s that not a good thing?Pathetic, saw the bloke from the Football League talking about it before, his first few words were along the lines of "when some people walk into a football stadium, they don't feel inclusive."

As long as it finds the back of the net.
Yes, but just get on with it, rather than shouting from the ** roof tops every two minutes.Do you disagree? Is there not a place in football grounds for 'other' people?

What a load of shit. I walk into the North, usually on the late side & see all sorts of shapes, sizes & occasionally non white faces but just think they're seasiders like me. I'd think I'm run of the mill & not weighing up who may or might be gay. Why do you invent things that are absolute bollocks.Perhaps they are the few because they're afraid to walk into football grounds.
Cheltenham certainly gave us some black and blue balls having delivered a right royal kicking last night.Going off last night the colour of the balls will be the least of our worries.
Just read some of the comments.Why do you always think that when someone is hot under the collar when a particular subject is mentioned?
Of course there’s a place for everyone at a football ground. But if you think a rainbow coloured ball/cornerflag/laces etc will make anyone feel more welcome you’re absolutely mental.Do you disagree?

it won’t make anyone feel included. It’s tokenism taken to the extremeWhat do the majority of football fans want? Not rainbow coloured balls? Why does it bother you if it’s a rainbow coloured ball? And if that’s making someone else feel included how’s that not a good thing?
I’m curious as to why you think a rainbow coloured football will get one more person into a football ground? Trust me, it won’t.I couldn't give a toss if it's a rainbow or anything else. If it helps to getting others into the ground who might not otherwise, then fair enough.
I'm curious as to why people get so hot under the collar over this kind of thing though. Does it really impact on you personally?
I don't but I also won't get bothered by it. Some clearly are. See also taking the knee.I’m curious as to why you think a rainbow coloured football will get one more person into a football ground? Trust me, it won’t.
They’re bothered by football being hijacked by the modern disease of tokenism. In pursuit of some bizarre agenda, and in the absence of actually doing anything constructive to tackle real social issues. See also taking the knee.I don't but I also won't get bothered by it.

Just going to Qatar and probably Saudi soon is hardly inclusive.If they really wanna do something to make it more inclusive they’d crack down on any homophobic chanting (the ‘tangerine, tangerine..’ chant springs to mind) - token gestures mean nothing. Henderson and his rainbow armband, the World Cup armbands where they could have made a stand all spring to mind
Yellow for Ching Chong China men ?Will we be getting Black, Brown and Yellow balls next then, other wise some might feel not inclusive.
Yes, won’t be long before white balls are banned!Will we be getting Black, Brown and Yellow balls next then, other wise some might feel not inclusive.
When I walked into turf moor I didnt feel includedPerhaps they are the few because they're afraid to walk into football grounds.
That’s because your a homosapien not a NeanderthalWhen I walked into turf moor I didnt feel included
Well that would be a darn site more entertaining!And Basil Newby to replace Tony P as match announcer!
You're ok so long as you keep your hands in your pockets...When I walked into turf moor I didnt feel included
Why ridiculous? LGBTQ+ month and a nod to that from the EFL?Ridiculous! Why can’t we go to a football match and watch a football game without Knees Coloured laces etc etc ?
