Would there ever be a gay referee in football?
Having just read this http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/south_west/7764625.stm I have to say hand on heart I never knew Nigel Owens was gay. He's one of the best referees around though.
He raises an interesting point though, he definitely couldn't have carried on if he was a football referee could he? The level of abuse would be unreal.
