I still think it's a myth that Fashanu killed himself BECAUSE of the abuse he got for being gay.. He was facing some pretty serious charges in the States wasnt he?
TBH I don't really remember all I remember is the hassle he had afterwards which at the time they said "contributed" to his suicide.

How noble of the Sun to bump up their readership.
Does the chap (presuming it is a bloke and not one of the ladies) wish to come out or is he being outed?

Easy to blame the Sun. If it wasn't for the amount of twats who buy the fucking rag getting their rocks off by reading this type of shite then the tabloids wouldn't even bother to publish.

It is easy, but also right. The day shit like the Sun disappears is the day mankind takes a step forward. I don't hate all Tabloid stuff (The Metro's great for example, nicely tongue-in-cheek), just the stuff that deliberately and maliciously stirs up hate and anger for purely financial reasons. Obviously the people who buy it and agree with every single hateful sentence are part of the problem but it's much easier (and fairer) to blame the rag for doing it in the first place. Burn the fucking place down, along with all the newscorp offices. Fuck 'em.

It doesn't really matter.
Remember in Fergie's book he talked about how Henderson ran funny. Might be about to find out the reason.
You are wrong - twice. It does matter. It shouldn't, but it does. We have only two or three openly gay footballers in the world, and we all know the abuse any player would get if he did come out. We also all know, surely, that those statistics don't add up. Personally, I think if a premier league player came out while still playing in the premier league I think he would be very brave and, frankly, a hero. People need to be comfortable being who they are. The reason you are wrong twice is, with your second sentence, you've shown a casual example of the crude stereotyping that stops players, and people anywhere, from coming out.

Has the lack of coverage over this surprised anyone? Or are the press just waiting until the Sunday exclusive?

As sad and ridiculous as it is, lots of people care. Hence the debate.

That could account for a lot of threads on here, so I am not sure why you are complaining.
