QUEENS Park Rangers Football Club will be proud to show their support for the Football Against Homophobia campaign when the hosts of the R host Brentford on Wednesday 17th February.

The game in which current R boss Mark Warburton competes against his former employers will be the club’s dedicated game as we continue to fight for equality and diversity in football and society.

As mentioned earlier this month, the Rs have teamed up with clubs from across the country, including next week’s opponent Brentford, to celebrate this inclusive month.

The Football Against Homophobia campaign aims to reinforce the message that there is no place in football or in society as a whole for homophobia, transphobia or biophobia.

QPR is an inclusive club dedicated to equality for all, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.

Andy Evans, CEO of QPR in the Community Trust, said: We are very proud of our work to eradicate all forms of discrimination in society and are excited to support this year’s Football Against Homophobia campaign.

“Queens Park Rangers is an inclusive football club and it is our job to make sure people feel comfortable regardless of race, religion, sexuality or gender.”

Football Against Homophobia themselves are hosting a series of virtual events throughout the month as they continue to fight for equality in sport.

The Rs themselves have a number of things to do this month to support the campaign. More information is available at www.qpr.co.uk.

Rainbow Rangers is the club’s official LGBT fan group. If you want to get in touch with the group, you can contact them via E-mail and follow them on Twitter.
