Nobody said it was mate.

It's a big problem amongst English fans, to which I count myself, which is why I mentioned it. If you want to change things, you need to start by sweeping in front of your own front door.

I count myself as a gay England fan and have never seen this as a big problem among fans at all. At least not from a personal perspective.

To suggest that English fans would like to join in with the stoning of gay people is a bit ridiculous really.

There needs to be a "Gay England" team. I'd wear that jersey.

Hey, glad that hasn't been your experience! I've witnessed some really homophobic shit in different stadiums across the country over the years.

But yeah, the stoning part was hyperbole on my part.

Yeah for me there's a big difference between stupid, homophobic chanting and physical violence. Both are bad but one is demonstrably worse.

Read my comment again buddy, maybe you'll understand it the second time around.

Also, if you do acknowledge it as a problem, why are you being so sensitive about me calling it out? We can definitely call out the idiots amongst ourselves without disregarding that there are idiots elsewhere too.
