I was thinking how cool it would be to have the first openly gay Prem League footballer. Maybe even two.

I think we are uniquely placed to live with the consequences, a tight-knit supportive club and group of fans, based in a highly cosmopolitan place. And we don't give a monkey's what anyone else thinks.

Any views? I am sure there will be a range.

That's not such a daft point to be honest. Why do men and women have separate changing rooms traditionally... ? To stop lots of perving and potentially shagging I would guess. How does the dynamic of gay people fit into that ??

 


You'll be forever in my family's memories and it was an honor and privilege to play and lead in the red and blue
Yours sincerely

As someone has already said, we supposedly already have a gay player in our first team.

Hope it isnt'big'KG.The thought of him thundering into my ring piece reminds me of that Ross Kemp documentary on South Africa prisons.I KILL IM!

I am certain Palace have had many gay players. Like the other teams in the Prem I bet Palace already have at least two now. They just need the bravery to come out foe their own sake.

So what have we learned so far:

1 It doesn't matter if someone is openly gay, nobody cares
2 But we wouldn't want anyone to come out because they would get lots of stick
3 There is no need to consider whether we are gay friendly
4 If we were to try to make our club gay friendly then we wouldn't get any good players
5 We are already so gay friendly that we have a player who is gay in the first team
6 But nobody knows who it is - or at least nobody is saying
7 In any case we are all sure he wouldn't want to come out
8 And if he did we would have to immediately transfer him to Brighton
9 I must be gay

Did I get it all correct?

Doesn't anyone find it boring being so flaming predictable, can't we all try something a bit radical for a change?

What would be cool, is if a player was gay and no one cared, 35-40 years ago West Brom were cool with Regis, Moses and Cunningham now who cares everyone has moved on.

It scares me the songs that will come from the Holmesdale if this ever happened.

Leave it to Brighton, this is their forte.

If only you were good enough to make the grade

The reason is that i'm B block Holmesdale as it is and with the jovial taunts of "we know you're shagging Will Young" echoing around, god only knows what would be sung to an openly gay player lmao.

This was my point. Surely we are uniquely placed to be able to take the potential flak. Brighton couldn't do this, all the idiots on here going on about surely this is Brighton's role. They already get enough stick, they aren't tough enough to live with such a momentous issue. We are, we could, we would slap down anyone wanting to make it a big issue.

I think this is a sound point - we've got a vocal set of fans - and to be honest I think most of the comments on this thread are very funny. You're not getting it anywhere near as bad as the bloke who wanted to ban the Crystals...

 


A one and a two...

Nah, don't think they are. Most people are just enjoying themselves, rather than getting personal and childish.

We would need two home changing rooms

That's not such a daft point to be honest. Why do men and women have separate changing rooms traditionally... ? To stop lots of perving and potentially shagging I would guess. How does the dynamic of gay people fit into that ??


It wasn't meant to be a daft comment
