BREAKING!!

Team @RightNUFC (with us, obviously) has sued the FA over its partnership with Stonewall and its political rainbow laces campaign. We are delighted to say we won. The FA issued the following:

“The FA has no plan to participate in the Rainbow Laces campaign in this or future seasons.The FA has no relationship with Stonewall in connection with the Rainbow Laces campaign, or otherwise. The FA’s present intention, subject to further consideration, is to move away from supporting single campaigns based on symbolism.”

Players, officials, fans and clubs are now free to engage in the beautiful game without political grandstanding.

Win us. Game over.

I did ask for a title change which someone said they’d do but haven’t yet… @mnhq?

I no longer live there but still an nufc fan and have been backing her all the way. Are they letting her back in the ground yet? The two lads who sit behind my dad shout stuff that’s actually offensive every match and they’ve not been banned. Ridiculous.

Not as yet but I believe there will be clarity on that soon

Excellent news. Thank you Linzi!

I suspect that the Guardian will also give it a good, stout leaving alone.

LizzieSiddal · 19/09/2025 13:34

I wonder if the BBC will cover this brilliant story- we won’t hold our breath obvs.

There's a few, I'd forgotten that you were from up here...

I’m NE England too. But I’ve name changed. I think I knew you were @WarriorN

This is great for Linzi and good for the FA. She’s been a phenomenon

mrshoho · 19/09/2025 13:11

Fantastic news! Go Linzi!

outofdate · 19/09/2025 12:44

Brilliant Linzi! We are so proud of you!

Childrenofthestones · 19/09/2025 10:12

Back o the net 😃💪

anyolddinosaur · 19/09/2025 08:04

Brilliant. I think the case against her club continues, at least there is no update on banned and spied on for my beliefs.

ArabellaSaurus · 19/09/2025 07:42

Yay! Well done that woman!

WannabeEDIOfficer · 19/09/2025 07:40

Stonewalls funding model must be in ruins. They have lost public support and seem propped up mainly by institutions that are funded by the tax payer.

MrsOvertonsWindow · 19/09/2025 07:17

Well done Linzi. Another small step in getting the misogynists away from influencing sport.

Yes you are right; it’s the FA. I’ll see if I can change it. Though it may become against the club regarding her ban.

I'm not sure your heading is right, is it? Isn't it vs the FA?
I must admit I misread the tweet myself, at first and thought it was was the case against Newcastle United FC but the NUFC in it is part of her twitter handle. Is there even a date set for her case against the football club? I can't see it on her live crowdfunder.
