no one in Saudi Arabia cares about this. and no one in Britain cares about this either. these articles just stink of racism tbh.

If you were a gay football player that admired Jordan Henderson for his outspokeness and support about being gay, in an industry that's still very hard to come out in, suddenly turn around and play in a country that actively punishes you for something you have no control over...can you not see how they'd feel quite betrayed and disappointed?

i dont think such a person exists lol. thats the kinda comment you make when you dont actually know any gay people tbh.

This is one of the reasons international break is so boring. Remember before the World Cup, there used to be a story about Qatar every time?

Now, we’ve moved on to Saudi Arabia.
