    Rooney Rule

    How many female managers are there? Wonder if that will be the next thing the push. I just find it hard to believe that any club owner or fan doesn't want the best person for the job based on colour. If racism was as widespread as is being implied wouldn't it extend to players as well?

    That must come into it. Big Cyrille is often mentioned as one of the pioneering black players in England. He's what age now, late 50s? So you're probably talking a generation behind him, at least, before it was completely accepted. To make a claim of discrimination you really need to drill...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    How will that happen? You can't cherry pick. If you want to be in the single market you'll have to agree to freedom of movement. The Norway model keeps being mentioned but that would mean paying in 94% of what we do now and agreeing to freedom of movement without any say in what direction the EU...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    So what do you think we'll have? Something like Norway where we still pay in, still accept freedom of movement but have no say over any of the decision making process?

    There's something not quite right about this French kit and I can't work out what it is. Looks more like an Italian kit.

    Thats everyone that did the courses. But there will be way more people qualified than jobs available. Like any job you need to get your foot in the door somewhere. One report I found mentioned Richard Shaw but he had a chance here and was useless.

    The stat that would help would be how many people who are classed as BME have all their badges and would be qualified to do the job.

    For some reason they have both. Not sure why you need the extra official if you have the technology in place.

    So if this is a forced takeover...

    Not sure its that unusual for a company not to be monitoring every filing another company makes. Not like we all knew or any of the local media reported it.

    Could be some football soon! Not sure about this new format where you can have a 0-0 in all your games and probably go through.

    That thing in front of the Eiffel Tower was appalling. I don't understand how ITV are so bad at football. All they need to do is watch BBC or Sky and copy it.

    Have ITV just picked names out of a hat for who they were going to give jobs to? Understandable English should be a basic requirement for the job.

    Do clubs really not pick the best person for the job because they're from a minority? I couldn't care less if we had a 2 headed purple alien from planet zod in charge if we were winning games.
