Evening all,hmmmn John Barnes being a bit homophobic there.

I understand how he thinks that way...he knows he shouldn't but he's been in a macho profession all his life

Footballers like him making it difficult for players to come out.

True.....but hearts and minds are difficult to change sometimes

very - can take a long time

 Laws can stop people saying and doing things but it takes a lot longer to change how people think and feel - which was actually what John said on the subject of racism.

I don't think you can fully.
