Partick Thistle's away strip will feature LGBT rainbow under the sleevePartick Thistle are a club "open to all" after becoming the first Scottish side to have the LGBT rainbow on their new jersey, says chief executive Gerry Britton. The Scottish Championship team's away kit for next season sports the Pride flag on two strips down either side of the top. "We wanted to make a statement about inclusivity and that's what inspired the rainbow feature on the away shirt. "Partick Thistle is one club open to all, we will not accept discrimination in any form and I sincerely hope that this shows that. Football can be such a wonderful universal language that can help bridge all sorts of divides, both large and small.
