Don't you mean Lily Savage?

What he meant is that Barrymore was married and was gay, like Overmars supposedly is

There are times when you show how naive you are.

I think he knew that.

Seriously though, I'm gay and I know that if I mention it, you guys will take the piss, but to be honest I can take that and if people just come out and say it then it really isn't a big deal. People 'get over it' very quickly and then swiftly move onto the next topic to take the piss... that's what banter is about.

I am normally very open about it in my real life and I just wish that more famous people felt that they could come out.. There are always rumours about people in sport, but seriously, what is so good about living a lie? In the 70's and 80's there was 'banter' about being black (which is now rightly called racism), but do you remember programs like "rising damp" and the stuff "Alf Garnet" used to say! It sounds so shocking now! Hopefully if some sports people show some balls and just be honest then it will improve for everyone.

Right thats it, I'm becoming a lesbian

Just read somewhere that a former Villa, Forest and Leeds player was gay. Villa selling him on when it was discovered he was caught in a gay nightclub.

Could it be former Spud Steve Hodge?

But then Clough brought him back again to Forest and wasn't so keen on Fashanu's gay clubbing.

This is an interesting story that seems to tell the Justin Fashanu story a little differently.
