How we end homophobia in football | Hope...

Talksport
About this episode

With a rise in homophobia in football, talkSPORT has partnered with EE and the @Gay_Times to host a round table to discuss the problems in the game and how we all have a role to play to help stamp it out.


Former England striker Lianne Sanderson is joined by Premier League winner Joe Cole, England's most capped player Fara Williams, Carl Fearn from the Gay Gooners and Chris Paouros from the Proud Lillywhites.


The team are also joined by Adelaide United FC defender Josh Cavallo, who came out as gay in October 2021. He shares his experiences after becoming the first openly gay male footballer playing professional top-flight football.
