Not enough is being done to tackle issues of abuse in sport, according to a recently published report, and more needs to be done
A UK parliament select committee has called for a zero-tolerance approach and lengthy bans to tackle homophobia in sport.
A report published by the Culture, Media and Sport Committee found that football clubs in particular are not doing enough to challenge homophobic abuse in stadiums.
It said that a survey found 72 per cent of people had heard homophobic abuse, while noting that there are no openly gay footballers in the professional leagues.
