Saw the documentary today - not that great really, nothing new about the content of it. See they slipped in the Pique and Ibra picture right at the very end of the programme...
People are understandably frightened to come out because of how their family and friends will perceive things, how fellow players and their club may perceive things, how the home and away fans will perceive things. Such a coming out will change the dynamic to so many things, rightly or wrongly...tis a shame but I can understand why football players are not willing to come out. Can't fully empathise because I'm straight myself. Anyway, it's their private life and why should they come out, do they really need to anyway?! Do we need them to come out ffs?! We don't have football players coming out as heterosexual, so why the big fuss over footballers who happen to be homosexual?
As for John Amaechi, he's got to be one of the most miserable people you can come across. I've read his book and the guy is a depressive tbh and he presented in much the same way in the aforementioned documentary. **** me, cheer up love.
