Absolute Scenes Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Not really that looks like an abomination of a strip. And nothing to do with what it represents. What football fan or player for that matter wants a big rainbow down the strip? It won’t be flying off the shelf that’s for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjcc Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Appreciate the sentiments. But depending on how big the rainbow strip is that could be an clusterf*** of a shirt. ? maybe it’s just a stripe on the sleeve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigO Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Aw I like Partick Thistle. If you're from Glasgow and support them, you're probably a GC. Celtic like to think they're the people's club, which is laughableiin so many ways. Partick are absolutely right on. Agreed the strip could be boggin though!! The rainbow stripe could be narrow by the looks of it so maybe OK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CostaJambo Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Bet this is the sort of PR/PC nonsense Dumpster would have loved to come up with for the hobos so that they could claim yet another meaningless first to deflect from their abysmal on-field record such as first floodlights etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsimp77 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 All the homophobes outing themselves in those replies. No wonder there isn’t an openly gay footballer in Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hungry hippo Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I really like Partick and I can't think of any other Scottish team (excluding Hearts and some minor teams) that I'd even consider saying that about. Fair play to them for this and Kingsley is great too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything that increases visibility and acceptance of marginalised groups in a traditionally set-in-its-ways, verging on over-compensatory masculine sport is a move in the right direction.

tian447 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) Some of the comments are showing exactly why Partick Thistle are doing this. Aside from the fact it might end up looking horrific, what exactly is the harm in them doing this? (edit) if the picture posted above is accurate, it doesn't even look that bad ffs. As an aside, at no point in the teaser have they even mentioned LGBT or Pride, or anything like that, and immediately the small minded are all "Ahm no wearing that gay pish".

Exactly, like Celtic shirts But seriously, other teams have been doing it for years. Rayo Vallecano in the Spanish Leagues have had at least 2 rainbow ones, that were much less subtle than the Partick kit: Other teams have also done it, including VfL Bochum, St Pauli, & Deportivo Guadalajara: Tears and snotters over a rainbow pattern, deary me :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football going things like this and anti-racism things etc are exactly what it should be doing. It's one of the few things can speak to a certain demographic of people.
