Football and homophobia

Few were the clubs that wore the rainbow bracelet

GAYLES.TV.- Last weekend some Spanish clubs joined the initiative proposed by the magazine Panenka of wearing a rainbow bracelet to make the fight against homophobia in football visible. The captains of the Sevilla, Eibar, Leganés, Grenada and UD Las Palmas They supported the cause. In the Second Division they did it Girona, Reus, Sevilla Atletico or Vallecano Ray and in Second b, Real Murcia, Mérida, Recreativo de Huelva or Estremadura.

Although we are glad of the initiative we still do not understand why so much delay in visibility LGTB + within the world of football. We continue to attend parties where insults players, nobody leaves the closet and threatens the few who dare to do so. There are some clubs like Rayo Vallecano or Eibar that have been wet for a long time with the cause supporting for example #laligaarcoiris. But others, the great ones (we speak openly about FC Barcelona or Real Madrid), who are the ones who should open the way, go on tiptoe and for example on this occasion have not adhered to the proposal of Panenka. Because?
