Marc Guehi has ignored a warning from the FA by writing a new message on his rainbow armband in Crystal Palace’s clash against Ipswich Town.
Guehi was slapped with an official caution from the Football Association for scribbling ‘I love Jesus’ on his LGBTQ+ armband against Newcastle.
The 24-year-old could now face disciplinary action after defying the FA and writing a second message against Ipswich which reads: ‘Jesus loves you’.
Guehi, a devout Christian, has angered the LGBTQ+ community with his behaviour, with many questioning why he felt the need to deface his armband, while others have defended him over his religious beliefs.
‘Having a pride campaign means absolutely nothing when you do nothing about homophobia when push comes to shove,’ football fan @beckytaylorgill posted on X. ‘Shameful decision by the FA.’
Palace manager Oliver Glasner, speaking to Amazon Prime after Palace beat Ipswich 1-0, said: ‘I think we should calm it down. Everybody knows Marc, everyone knows he is a great player, he is a great personality.
‘He is a very humble guy. He wore this. It’s LGBT and everyone now is about integration, no discrimination and Marc as well.
