I've had a fair few friends who were gay long before gayness even became a thing. I don't ever recall the topic coming up, other than I'm off to meet so-and-so, or had a great night out kind of stuff. It's kinda weird seeing everything being over-analysed on an internet football message board by a bunch of New Age Renaissance men :biggrin:

Jelly baby: The sometimes frothy, usually slimy, amalgam of lubricant, stray fecal matter, and ejaculate that leaks out of the receiving partner's **** after a session of anal intercourse :yikes:

Tell me when and where he denied he was gay then ? I can't remember the question being put to him and I
follow athletics closely.

Some of you posters still live in the stone age ffs.
Agree, people saying that it's not their business are correct, it isn't, same as if you don't like to wear underpants, or have a penchant towards dancing naked to Barry White songs, in your front room-it's nobodies business. The difference with coming out as gay, and the other two things I've mentioned, are that they are pretty easy to keep to yourself, being Gay, and not being able to express it, means that you have to lie, all for the benefit of those who judge. It means that when other men talk about woman, or explicitly about woman, then Jackson has probably had to join in, he's probably had to invent girlfriends, lie about the people he is with, or the places he has been. So, people are right, it's none of our business, but when someone feels the need to inadvertently lie, in order to protect themselves, then it does become our business.

I remember Colin Jackson - as he was always at the various county trials for athletics , rugby, football etc and he was so much better than everyone else. He was also extremely 'camper' than everyone else if that is the correct phraseology - so it's hardly a surprise at all that he has come out. He's been gay ever since I can remember him
I think most people knew this already though didnt they ?
My Mrs said i knew years ago:sherlock:
