For too long, gay and trans individuals with poor fashion sense have had to attend games feeling like they have to conform to outdated concepts like style or taste. Finally the club have listened and shifted the paradigm.

Nothing wrong with campaigning for equality, unless you don’t agree with it of course. It really doesn’t matter what the shirt looks like, the whole point is to raise the issue and get people talking about it, which this is doing.

I hope you'll be wearing your copy with pride on Saturday. I'd expect nothing less.

The 2021 one was 10x better, don't like the design on this one.  The 2021 edition sold out in about 20mins, I suppose there is more chance of getting hold of this one.

Don’t worry, they are only going to be worn in the warm up. No doubt some will still complain that it will detract from our focus on the match in some way though 🙄

Are you suggesting that there is still a long way to go with EDI? As for talking about it......that's all you hear about nowadays.

I couldn’t give a shiny shite what they wear for the warm up, never see it anyway. 

Expand  

I don't give a fuck what they wear in the warm up, during the game, gelling their hair or when they are doing their make up,

I just want us to not be so cluelessly shit during the games

That’s soooooo gay! 🤣 To be fair, it just looks like Paul Smith has sponsored the old goalkeeper shirt.

They should be made to wear that shite for every game until they win.

Just glad they've included the colouring for MAPs.  About time paedophilia was normalised in the name of inclusivity.  Up the nonces.

For half a second I thought you were being serious when I looked at the shirt, but it isn't actually in there.

I can see the original pride rainbow flag colours and then there's a whole bunch of other colours that I am not familiar with. Could someone explain what they represent please?

I think they are training tops for the warm up only, not match shirts as such. Waste of money! 

90% of fans either won't be in their seats during the warm up or concentrating on polishing off their pasties to take much notice.

Interesting. Any specific sort of progress or just progress in general?

I was being flippan, but surely a world where we don't give a shit what other people are or care how they live their life has to be better than the judgmental world that has existed for the last few thousand years.

Agreed as long as it doesn't infringe on the rights of others. Not sure what any of that has to do with all these extra colours though. I thought the point of the rainbow was to represent everyone because it is all the colours that make up the rainbow. What's the purpose of all the new colours?

Something something great to be part of a cause that’s bigger than ourselves, something something scar tissue, something something good game but we have a responsibility to the community

Didn’t there used to be a shop in town called “ Bondage in General”? Sure I used to get my burgundy Sta-prest and Fred Perry t-shirts from there back in the day. Always had shit taste in clobber but wouldn’t wear that monstrosity.. for any cause!

But apparently we care so much that we need to wear shirts about it, and we're all waiting for the day that someone comes out and announces they're homosexual so we can...actually, i'm not really sure why we need someone to do that.

Sta-prest, you've taken me right back to 1984.

We dont and to be blunt it's no ones business anyway so quite why it's so important is very odd. As is this being desperate to show how much we care. It's all a bit forced and tragic. Look at Jordan Henderson, first in the queue for rainbow laces and tell everyone who will listen how we need to support LGBT rights, then £700k a week reasons why its not that important afterall. when they start practising what they preach then maybe all this shit will be taken a bit more seriously.
