@bayfc.com you need to choose. The gays or Chik Fil A

@bayfc.com You continue to promote hate behind the scenes while outwardly pretending to support the LGBTQ+ community. Choose your values and stick by them. We are done with this conversation.

Very disappointed to see staff at the @bayfc.com game got Chik-fil-a catered for their meal. Really weird vibe for the Pride Band to see the team supporting a company that proudly boasts about their anti-queer bigotry. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chick-f...

Hey @bayfc.com this is beyond disappointing to hear. We have already asked about your use of this company and were promised change. This just seems intentional now.

Read our full statement. #TheWorldCupIsNotForSale

Today, the Independent Supporters Council is calling on FIFA to withdraw its proposal, on CONCACAF to take a stronger leadership role in opposing it, and on FIFA Member Associations to reject any proposal that puts financial pressure ahead of the long-term stewardship of the game.

This summer reminded us why the World Cup matters. It belongs to the supporters, players, volunteers, member associations, and communities that have built it over generations, not to outside investors seeking financial returns.

What is in Fifa's 25-page sales pitch: a reference to more than doubling the number of global tournaments held each year, from 200 to 450 What is not in Fifa's 25-page sales pitch: a single reference to women's football

Fifa’s sales pitch revealed: more tournaments, more debt … but no mention of women’s game
