Mark Smith: A gay player in therapy and “Arab fancy dress”. What is football’s problem?

I’d like to write about how progressive football is. I’d like to write about all the ways in which the sport, the players, the managers and fans are paragons of diversity and modernity. But instead I’m going to write about a gay player who’s in therapy and fans doing “Arab fancy dress” with tea towels on their heads. What exactly is football’s problem?
