THE EVER INSIGHTFUL Phil Brown, not for the first time, has scored a bit of an own goal by branding Italian midfielder Andrea Pirlo “homophobic”.
The outspoken former Hull City boss was giving it the whole ‘our Premier League is the best in the world’ speech on BBC Radio 5 Live and attempted to question why Pirlo has never made the switch to England.
He presumably mistook the word to mean ‘being afraid to leave home’, however, and instead suggested that the Juventus player has negative feelings towards members of the LGBT community.
Or maybe he was just getting mixed up with Antonio Cassano…

The game needs more people like this guy. Hilarious
I think you mis-spelt Guy there! Shouldn’t that be GAY?
what a clown is phil brown!!!!!!
I’m sure Phil will soon come out with a clarification:
“I have no issue with any members of the homosapien community”
Maybe Phil Brown should be told off in the middle of the pitch in front of a 55,000 crowd
he is obviously saying that the premiere league is full of gays,read between the lines people!
Can’t stand the man. If he was made of ice cream he’d lick himself!
I was gonna write something really interesting and constructive but there’s some bloke sitting across from me on the bus that stinks of pikey sweat. The beads of sweat are dribbling down his head it’s horrible,
Is he still a “former”manager or has some idiot chairman given him a job?
He’s wearing a pink tie.n
Agoraphobia
Dougal: Father Jack, afraid of fighting? I don’t think so Ted.
Wehaaaaaaaay!
men like brown and his peers in the english game are the reason why in football terms it remains in the dark ages. does anyone think this guy will spearhead a new philosiphy on the game
Yes, I think he will
