Once again, the Premier League and with it some of the world's most important teams such as Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United, will support the #RainbowLaces campaign.

Initiated by the Stonewall Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender rights charity, the campaign aims to promote the acceptance of the LGBT community - the reaction by some supporters online has showed that this is still very much needed.
We’re proud to support @stonewalluk's #RainbowLaces campaign.
