    Worse: football organisations in The Netherlands of all places are refusing to wear anything that implies sympathy to LGBTQ+ matters. Being a footballer and called gay is still a popular insult. A comedian had to start selling team captain bands, replacing the organisation’s One Love one with a new Wat Laf version (it means “How cowardly”). At least the Wat Laf is aimed at the national football organisation.

    For some reason on the other hand, the women’s football side has no problem with that, with several overt lesbians playing in the national leagues.
