Giroud says it’s ‘impossible’ for gay players to come out. Stonewall FC aims to change that

Over the last three decades it’s been a tough and winding journey for Stonewall FC — Britain’s most successful gay football club — but on Friday as the players make their way up Wembley Way to play at English football’s spiritual home the team will take its next step in campaigning to tackle all forms of discrimination.

In a game against Wilberforce Wanderers AFC, England’s national stadium is hosting a special event to honor this pioneering LGBT club and to celebrate the Football Association’s landmark partnership with the Stonewall charity.
