Topics
David Garrido: 我主持了本期节目,讨论了David Coote事件以及足球界普遍存在的对裁判的恶意攻击和对同性恋的歧视问题。 Charlie Wyatt: 我是《太阳报》的记者,我采访了David Coote。他承认自己吸食可卡因,并解释说这是因为他害怕在足球界这个男性主导的环境中出柜。他希望通过讲述自己的故事来帮助其他面临相似困境的人。他为自己的行为道歉,并表示吸毒是为了逃避压力。 Jason Burt: 我认为,尽管Coote的行为应受到谴责,但我们也应该关注他所面临的人性困境。足球界对同性恋者不够包容,Coote的经历凸显了这个问题。他承受了巨大的压力和审查,这导致了他的困境。
