Club supports Rainbow Laces campaign

We’ll be supporting Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign during our Premier League fixture against Brighton & Hove Albion on Thursday, December 5 and our Women's Super League fixture against Reading on Sunday, December 8.

Whether playing or spectating, Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign aims to empower LGBT people in sport and celebrate diversity.

Support for the campaign will be clear across both fixtures with rainbow laces, pitch flags, ball plinths and handshake boards present. Our matchday programme for the Brighton fixture will also take on a rainbow theme.

In addition to the matchday activity, a limited number of ‘PRIDE 19’ rainbow printed shirts will be available in The Armoury Store and Gay Gooners will take on their West Ham United counterparts, Pride Of Irons, in a friendly fixture around London Stadium on Friday.
