Soccer-Scottish referee Napier comes out as gay

(Reuters) - Scottish referee Craig Napier came out as gay on Thursday, becoming the first openly gay figure in the Scottish game since late Hearts forward Justin Fashanu in the mid-1990s.

The Category One official follows Blackpool's Jake Daniels in coming out after the 17-year-old revealed his sexuality last month.
