    If you read the article, they've catalogued homophobic chants and instigated change to reduce them. There's no gay corner in the ground, it's not in anyone's face. They don't get reduced ticket prices. Its just forming some groups because football can be a pretty homophobic place. Cannot see why anyone's bothered, really can't.
    I'm not bothered, I just don't really see the need for them to be singled out. I think football is quite reflective of society in general - years ago it was deemed ok to take the piss and be openly hostile to blacks, gays, women etc. But thankfully we've moved on from that stuff (in the main).

    As for my house, point taken. However in my defence, my missus is the one who insists on buying all the tat like cushions, throws etc. - if it was up to me I'd just have a chair, telly, bed and fridge.

    If we knew that we could answer the age old question of why Women have so many handbags.

    Why must everyone be divided? I think there is more chance of chants or comments towards people who separate themselves than if they don't tbh.
