Well said. Also how does Superted know who would be affected by Fury's comments. I'd imagine there are a fair few gay rugby league fans, and even more who have close friends or relatives who are gay.
Yet again, Fury's supporters getting all wound up that people use the same free speech they bizarrely claim Fury is being denied.
Quote: bren2k "With regard to Tyson Fury - he is free of course to hold his bigoted and dim-witted views about anything at all; but the BBC should have withdrawn his nomination off the back of the comments he made.'"
I don't particularly mind the BBC not withdrawing his nomination, it's a tricky decision for them. My main problem is with the 72,000 s who voted for him.
