At last, English football faces up to its homophobia problem
- Stonewall, a charity which campaigns for greater inclusion and acceptance of members of the LGBT community, vows to continue working ‘until everyone feels free to be who they are, wherever they are.’ Their link up with Manchester United is the first of its kind in the top tier of English football.
“The ground-breaking initiative,” reads United’s website, “will see the club work alongside Stonewall, helping to tackle LGBT issues in sport and society, while looking at best practice and ways in which inclusion and equality can be improved in football.”
