In this powerful image captured by photographer Jason Brown at the Madejski Stadium during the Sky Bet Championship match between Reading and Bristol City on November 26, 2016, Lee Tomlin of Bristol City proudly displays his support for Stonewall UK by wearing rainbow laces on his football boots. The rainbow laces are a symbol of inclusion and a visible demonstration of the football community's commitment to challenging discrimination and promoting equality for all, regardless of sexual orientation. Tomlin's stance is an important statement as football continues to be a leading platform for promoting social change. The Rainbow Laces campaign, which is run by the LGBT sports charity Stonewall, encourages athletes, coaches, and fans to wear rainbow laces during sports events to show their support for LGBT inclusion. The image captures the intensity and focus of Tomlin as he prepares for the match, with the rainbow laces adding a vibrant pop of color to his all-black kit. The contrast between the seriousness of the sporting event and the symbolic nature of Tomlin's rainbow laces highlights the importance of inclusivity and acceptance in all aspects of life, including sports. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the progress that has been made in promoting LGBT inclusion in football, but also of the ongoing work that needs to be done to ensure that everyone feels welcome and valued in the sport. The image serves as a call to action for fans, players, and clubs to continue to challenge discrimination and promote equality, both on and off the pitch.
