You're a bit late to the party sunshine

By bit he means quite a lot. At least 3 days and 10 pages.

But to answer the question, yes, yes he will

There's quite a difference between what Hardaker and what Folau did.

In your own personal opinion. of course!

I hope all the straight people boycott the game. Wigan should not have done this, as supporters who have season tickets lose out if they prefer not to attend. I certainly wouldn`t go if I was a Wigan supporter, I would be afraid of being classed as a gay or rainbow warrior.

Or worse, a Huddersfield fan!

6% of the UK are LGBTQ.

10% are ginger, the one demographic that is openly oppressed yet goes totally ignored.

If anything, we should have a ginger day and celebrate gingers because they are the friendliest bunch going.

Had this comment been racial the topic would have been locked, just saying.

"Gay pride or LGBT pride is the promotion of the self-affirmation, dignity, equality, and increased visibility of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people as a social group. Pride, as opposed to shame and social stigma, is the predominant outlook that bolsters most LGBT rights movements."

I'll leave you to ponder on what constitutes a socio-political movement for yourself.

And if we did, I'd be ok with that, would you?

Firstly, let me make it clear once again, as it doesn't seem to be getting through, that I'm not expressing support of those views and certainly not in the manner they're being expressed, I'm expressing the support of someone to hold an alternative viewpoint, whether it's popular or not.

You seem to be agreeing with me on many points although I'm not sure you're aware of it. For example, I couldn't agree more that, if this is the stance the club is taking, then it should be rolled out across more causes. Why just one game? Why not every game a different cause? The point I have been making throughout is not one cause above all others.

To address the main point we seem to disagree on. You say 'why so and so and not LBGTQ?' Well, the answer to that goes to the 2nd point I've been making which is they have specific connections to the club, sport or community. Mental health through it's direct impact on former players, notably Terry Newton and forces and disability through their respective rugby league competitions,

Had we had a player suffering homophobic abuse or there were LBGTQ rugby league competitions then I would agree that this was a similar case. I'm not aware that there are but if that's indeed the case then fair enough. Failing any particular affiliation to our club or sport though, my original point stands. All or nothing is not an unreasonable stance.

Not really, and for the same reasons. Similarly I wouldn't be against it if the club decided to go down this route as long as we had similarly themed blonde days, brown haired days, no hair days, changeable colour hair days. In fact this, ludicrous though the intent, illustrates my point perfectly.

Religious persecution?

I've genuinely never heard the term before so I'm looking at it and now. I understand the social part, not so much the political part. I guess wanting equal rights is the political part?

I stand by saying being gay isnt a sociopolitical issue, but I understand why pride events would be
