This issue isn't, however, due to the rarity of a gay footballer coming out. It's very specifically to do with football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't exactly emotionally invested in your starting a Rebecca Vardy thread. But I am happy, thank you, hope you're happy too We have a lot to work on in the world of football, and as exposure leads to acceptance I hope we see more gay talk.

I didn't suggest you should be emotionally invested in an RV thread or indeed anything else for that matter and I had no intentions of starting such a thread - merely pointing out that like this thread it has little or no relevance to HMFC/football per se. The guy just happens to be a footballer. Gay talk is a general topic like heterosexual talk, religion or colour and should IMO be in the shed. That is my point.

Shanks Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Will be a good move for him financially coming out. No one had a clue who he was but now everyones talking about some 17 year old that’s nowhere near first team for a shite blackpool. He will end up getting a move to a decent level club based on how marketable he will be. good move from the lad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt very much that this was Daniels' motivation, but if that makes you more comfortable with his coming out then so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of all the things you could have said, you went straight to "this'll be financially beneficial" so I think it's a fair question. Do you reckon that's what was behind it? I doubt it very much myself.
