A football star has become the first professional player in his country to publicly come out as gay after a video from his boyfriend went viral and prompted international support

In the latest episode of 'Settle In,' Kathleen McNamee was joined by Jim McElroy from Bohemians' Pride Committee to talk about the club's trailblazing mission to make football a more welcoming space for the LGBTQ+ community. From the whole club marching in Dublin Pride to instigating never-before-done research on LGBTQ+ participation in football, they are leaders in this field. Settle In with Guinness 0.0.

Jimbo is alongside Colin Millar, Jordan Campbell and Christoph Biermann as the first major European silverware of the season is decided. It’s the biggest day in Eintracht Frankfurt’s history as they overcome Rangers on penalties in Seville to win the Europa League. A victory for German football fans, redemption for Trapp and more misery for Ramsey. Will we see the Eagles doing a Dortmund in the near future? Forest also need penalties to reach their first ever play-off final. Matt Davies-Adams talks to us about a nerve-shredding night in Nottingham. Blackpool’s Jake Daniels becomes the only openly gay male professional footballer in Britain. The Athletic’s editor-in-chief Alex Kay-Jelski discusses Daniels and the ongoing Idrissa Gueye situation. And last – and definitely in no way least – Tim Spiers brings us the latest from the Rebekah Vardy libel trial.

Musa and Ryan begin with the news that 17-year-old Blackpool player Jake Daniels became the first active professional men’s player in the U.K. to come out as gay in over 30 years (03:22) and what this could mean for men’s football. They then discuss Newcastle’s win over Arsenal (19:08), which all but ends the Gunners’ hopes of Champions League qualification, plus a quick round-up of some other football around Europe (40:31).

Hosts Dan Bardell and Flo Lloyd-Hughes are joined by Women's football writer Jessy Parker Humphreys, to reflect on the many ways in which the sport's openly gay power-couples are creating a safe and 'joyous' environment for the LGBTQ+ community... They discuss how love-stories like Sam Kerr and Kristie Mewis, the in-jokes, social media sub-culture and sincere efforts to celebrate the joy of 'queerness' in sport, has left the men's game in the dust.
