❌ Once again we are questioning why this is still happening. You know the chant in question? It’s a hate crime. It is NOT just banter. ❌ Call it out, Retire the Chant.

This week, the Culture Secretary urged sports NGBs to ban trans women from competition We believe this: - Goes against the principles of the new IOC Framework - Is not based on scientific consensus - Further marginalises trans people in sport & wider society We say #NoTransBan

But Fashanu’s posthumous legacy has included his niece Amal Fashanu launching the The Justin Fashanu Foundation in his honour, which seeks to eliminate prejudice and tackle homophobia in sport and he was named 99th on a list of 500 LGBT heroes by the Pink Paper.

Shocking remarks from both players. This year’s World Cup is hosted in a country where being #LGBTQ is illegal with horrendous punishments. It’s no joke.

It seems incredible that in 2022 we are still having these discussions. People are still not brave enough to live their lives in football authentically....and there goes Iker Casillas Carles Puyol making a Joke of it all? Sky News Sky Sports RTÉ News ITV News BBC Sport

We were initially elated to hear Iker Casillas Twitter announcement yesterday but that quickly turned into confusion when it was declared to be a joke or his Twitter account was hacked. Either way the general responses have been incredibly disappointing....
