Perhaps this is a sign that a tolerance of homophobic abe has been built the game. While was found that fans would be supportive of players if they were to e out, there was ncern there is an ial embrace of a player’s homosexualy, yet is felt the petive nature of football will overri this and make fans’ attus and behavurs change, g sexualy as an sult game suatns.
This was found to be a possible reason as to why no player has e out - such ments would fluence a homosexual players’ sense of acceptance if they were to e out. It was also found that olr fans currently show signs of hancy when acceptg gay members to their group of fans, which n be attributed to the outdated views of prev generatns.

This monstrat a strong relatnship between homosexualy, football and the wir muny and also shows a difference between the grassroots and profsnal game as such attempts are not ma at a profsnal level. It has ultimately arisen om the rearch that the environment created for homosexuals football spac is the power of the fans which shows the power we have to nstct a sense of place (Tuan, 1975). The rearch fdgs are supported by Dick (2009) who found seven ten fans who have attend a match the last five years have heard anti-gay language and abe on the terrac which lks back to the origal lerature review which was found football is associated wh pictns of masculy.
