    Big moment I feel. The first big name still playing Football to come out. Good he feels he can.

    Dunno why I thought he was still playing somewhere. Still the biggest name in the industry to come out. Hopefully it helps others feel they can too. We wait to see what story Puyol has to tell.

    A fair bit of talk elsewhere that it is a hoax aimed at the Spanish press who keep linking him to various female celebrities... he's deleted the tweet apparently so this might not be quite what it seems. Time will tell.

    Sounds like he might have tweeted it as a joke, which is a bit of a shitty thing to do if so.

    It's a joke between him and Puyol. Which is quite bad

    If this turns out to be a joke, Casillas wants hammering

    Social media eh. o_O
    Twatter is a minefield compared to some other outlets. Eg this.

    Even if it were true, it shouldn't be news. It's none of our business.

    Never heard of him, so I'm guessing he's never played at Oakwell.

    Oldest excuse in the book. I guess Puyol was hacked too...Still a long way to go with society. He should have known better. The social media "jokes" involving the word "balls" were not funny.

    Spent pretty much his entire career at Real Madrid, barring a couple of seasons at Porto at the end of his career.

    I saw this earlier and it immediately didn’t look right - the photo of him and Puyol. If it turns out to be a “joke” then I hope they get rightly panned.

    And one of the greatest keepers of all time. Wonder if this will have an effect on his legacy.

    Unfortunately there won’t be any repercussions. Casillas goes with the old “I was hacked” line and no one can prove otherwise.
