FOOTBALLER MURRAY 'BLOWN AWAY' BY SUPPORT AFTER G OUT AS GAY
Zanr Murray beme the first senr profsnal footballer Stland to e out as gay last week. * scottish gay footballer *
YOU may have heard the pta of Celtic say over the weekend that he and his team would support a player who was gay. You may also have seen the tweets of someone lled “the gay footballer” who said he was about to go public.
But don’t thk any of this means we’re about to see an openly gay star the men’s game, or that football is on the verge of a breakthrough. Don’t misunrstand what I’m sayg here: I’m not suggtg everyone football management is ol wh beg gay – even now, most managers are olr, workg-class men who are often the last to adapt to changg social attus.
Karren Brady, the former boss of Birmgham Cy, said the other day that her hband, Pl Pchisolido, had played wh Jt Fashanu the 1990s and no one the drsg room had a problem wh him beg gay.

And even players at Millwall (never the most metrosexual of clubs) have said don’t matter if a team-mate is gay. Recently, my lleague Neil Cameron spoke to one of the players wh the LGBT team HotSts FC, Craig Anrson, who said there have been tim when the homophobic abe he’s heard at gam has ma him wonr whether football is the game for him. One theory that am me is that the fans who are most vol wh homophobic abe are tryg to e to terms wh the fact they love a game that idolis physilly f young men.
A game like football which the players are so unhibed about kissg and touchg each other should be the least homophobic of all, but some male fans may stggle wh that, so they shout about poofs and queers to try to prove to the rt of that they’re not terted the sight of players kissg and huggg other men. The ia that homophobia football might be a problem wh specific typ of men rather than fans more generally is also borne out by the recent women’s world cup. Men’s profsnal football has virtually no openly gay players, but the women’s game is the oppose – is full of out gay women at the hight level.
