Justin Fashanu: Gay, out and playing football - what needs to change?

It was 30 years ago that former Norwich City player Justin Fashanu rocked the world of football by openly talking about being gay.

To be gay in the game was unheard of at the time and three decades on, he remains the only male footballer to reveal his sexuality while playing professionally in the top tiers.

But why is that and what needs to change so players can be who they are?

On our live panel were Amal Fashanu, Justin's niece and campaigner for equality in football; ex-Hull City player Thomas Beattie who came out in June; and Matt Morton, the gay player/manager of ninth tier Thetford Town FC.

We also heard from the Professional Footballers' Association and the Proud Canaries - Norwich City's LGBT+ supporters' group.
