If the media never reported on it none of this would have blown up, I didn't even notice when watching the weekend games. Just as I didn't go around asking work colleagues why they weren't wearing the rainbow lanyard as it's none of my business, I feel the same way about this whole situation. And to be honest I couldn't care less either, as these things are ultimately useless in tackling the actual issues, just like the kick it out campaign.
