If they're wearing weird laces as a protest why are they rainbow and not pink?

im confused by the need for this tbh. is there any cases of homophobia which warrant this campaign ?
as far as i know there is no homosexual footballers in the prem getting abused.

I half expect a 'kick football out of football' day of action soon.

Guess its cos pink is representative of the Breast Cancer campaign?
Then again, isnt the Rainbow used by Green Peace?

Feck knows then.

like i say - i dont get it , there is clearly a racial issue towards races - so i get that campaign. but if there is no homosexuals in football , this campaign makes as much sense as 'lets kick the lizard people from the planet zog who are disguised by wearing human skin out of football'.
if a homosexual player/players 'comes out' and then gets abuse - then id back it. but there isnt , so whats the point ?

more needed campaigns ...
'lets kick alcohol abuse'
'lets kick lack of social responsibility '
'lets kick womanising '
'lets kick the terry family'
'lets kick liverpool fc'

The laces are coloured like this:

Synonymous with Gay Pride.

I always thought that the rainbow spectrum was associated with Gay Pride. There is a rainbow flag outside all gay pubs and clubs down this way

They should finish that comment with " So we were made up when Phil Neville left "

make a good point. Although none presently there was the John Fahshanu (sp?) situation, I think the idea is for it to be more socially accepted, as they want those footballers who they are aware of who are gay to come out and eliminate the stigma.

Supporting anti homophobia is a good thing, doesn't need to be over analysed
