Honestly cannot understand why most people responding here are so anti-LGBTQ+ in football. Same football that is littered with hooliganism and racism and none of these folks here talk. No sin is superior to another sin. A thief is equally as sinful as a liar
See one Gaybriel here.
We all condemn acts of racism, we'll condemn this one too.

i noticed something, western politics is all about trend rather than priciple

but it does not mean that the LGBT agenda has stopped or you wont get arrested if you discriminate against the LGBT union, it just mean they reduce the publicity of it.
[color=#006600][/color]

It's same way they keep bringing in people who have different ideology of life/religious faith into their country. Now those people are trying to over run their country.
Why can't those people going to western countries instead of going to countries that share same ideology of life/religious Faith with them?
Their politicians always try to look good and be politically correct.

May you come across more thieves than liers in your life.
Are they forcing anybody to be an hooligan or racist, why force people to become LGBT ambassadors.

Good for them. Controversy isn't what the Premier League need at this point in time. Those who feel otherwise can take their campaign to their bedrooms.

People don't understand the Trump effect on some madness going on around Europe. USA has taken stand against it so others must fall in place. Look at how they glorified pride day and gave it full month of June. We have successfully dismantle the works of darkness in our beloved EPL.
Man United red devil nickname is still bothering me.

Trying to alter the Bible to be politically correct when it is clearly written in the Bible that no sex except man and woman should not exist. I don't know what is truly wrong with the western world why is it that the wants to change Christianity traditional and cultural beliefs to be more liberal in a very insensitive and mediocrity way? Change and transformation should be an agent of acceptability! The world Christians are saying NO and a pocket of agnostic and cultural Christians are trying to forcefully force this down our throats. Thank you so much Marc Guehi for allowing God to use you as the instrument of change... Our controversial daddy Trump you will be bless like the harvest in the arable land for your efforts not only in US but Great Britain which eventual stir up the water from their political space to be pipped down their sports environment.

Trump effect.. As much as Trump's policies could be annoying even as a fan, we have to admit that alot of LGBT++ structures have been dismantled across the world since he came in which is some of the positives of his aura..

Lgbtq people be moving like fulani herdsmen, forcing people to accept their way of life and pressuring government to make laws that force people to accept them against their will.

Never seen anything like it

I AM SORRY TO DISAPPOINT YOU, NOBODY PLAYED ANY ROLE TO PUT THIS NONSENSE DOWN EXCEPT TRUMP.

ALL THE PLAYERS, MANAGERS AND OWNERS BOTH MUSLIMS AND CHRISTIANS SWALLOW UP THIS IMMORALITY, THEY NEVER CRITICIZED FA, EVERYONE WANTED TO BE SEEN AS GOOD.

IT TAKES TRUMP THREATS TO SANITIZED THE SYSTEM.


MAKE I HEAR ANY PLAYER COMING OUT TOMORROW TO SAY THAT HE WAS AGAINST THE RAINBOW ARMBAND, I WILL CURSED SUCH A PLAYER
There were some that took a very principled stand. There was a particular player in France who refused to take part. Also there are multiple ways of fighting it. I like Marc Guehi's method as well.

These people took a symbol of hope, a symbol we liked as kids and perverted it. They called it their pride symbol. GOD punish them for their arrogance.

When it's time let's talk about racism and every other sin in football, but for now, let's talk down LGBTQ, it's a cancer... it's worse than cancer!
How is what someone does with their body in private a "sin in football"?

I have never seen nor heard of any captain forced to wear a captain band brandished with racial slur nor cult/hooligan group insignia.
We don't support racism nor hooliganism too
You have never seen captains forced to wear bands that promote racial equality? The kick out racism band was for what? It was anti-discrimination much as the "pride" bands are anti-discrimination. So are you saying its okay not to discriminate against people because of their race but at the same time you say it's okay to discriminate against them based on their sexual orientation?

Like seriously?

So you'ld rather save your 'JAPA' than preach the truth?

Remember when Christ died on that cross, he was naked, God in human form, not ashamed to die and be ridiculed for you, bitten, spat on for you.

Ofcourse as the Lord instructs, apply wisdom when advancing the truth.

But by all means, don't be afraid, neither be ye ashamed to preach the truth - in love.

Romans 1:16 KJV
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

God bless brotherlee.

That's why it's good for players to have the audacity to take a stand against such evil (woke) agenda.

How can you be shoving your own perverted beliefs down the throats of players who signed up to play football not promote rubbish?

I already knew the message was loud and clear so it was only a matter of time.

Good riddance to bad rubbish!

Kudos to all those who played a role to put an end to this injustice in the premier league. 👍👍👍

God bless 🙏
The sole decision of Trump to end this nonsense in the USA is reverberating around Europe and the world. That is just it.

If Trump had supported it like old Joe, e for hard to stop in UK.

At the time i was already certain they couldn't dare sanction the crystal palace captain despite all their threats, and already knew it was only a matter of time before they bowed to the pressure heaped on them by the controversy drawn to their unjust LGBTQ+ rainbow campaign.
But you see players display names under their jerseys like Jota, Maradona and co.



But not Jesus, which if you ask me is not his real name.
I wish one had put Yahusa.......
Double standards everywhere
