Good luck getting another job in football off the back of this
Xenophobic is the wrong word mate. Deeney is English. He was born in Birmingham.Feels a bit xenophobic, that.

I didn't mean Deeney specifically, but you're right it could be the wrong word - although some modern definitions are a fear of anybody different from you.Xenophobic is the wrong word mate. Deeney is English. He was born in Birmingham.
Great news after the way he treated Dabo
Imagine playing for a manager that toxic and sounds like he talks out his nose
Not sure why our fans are particularly sentimental about him.
Was he that wrong about dabo? There's a reason he's playing for the bottom of the league 2 club.
Also called out other players for turning up late to training etc.
Not the right way to go about it but not sure why the prayfordabo stuff started.

I think they only employed him because he ticked the thick c**t box.Sky won’t invite him back. He was a diversity appointment in the first place.
He will probably be in the pundit chair this weekendGood luck getting another job in football off the back of this
Don’t really count that tbhHe will probably be in the pundit chair this weekend
Thanks for putting everyone straight.Diversity appointment? I detest the phrase.
Everyone should have the same rights as each other. Black, white, male or whatever gender. It should all be down to ability. It pisses me off when each time a white male doesn't get the role it's made out to be a Diversity appointment or words to that effect.
I don't exactly like most women football commentators. If I wanted to listen to high pitched shouts I'd spend more time with the wife. But who am I to say who should get the gig.
The UK is very diverse. White males are actually a lower percentage of the population than most think. Yet there's always some ready to make comments when a white male doesn't get the role.
All this talk about diversity got me thinking about a genuinely serious issue .. has the Rooney rule been misinterpreted meaning they have to give him the job if he applies?

Forest Green have made themselves look pretty dumb with their last couple of box ticking appointments - first it was a famale manager & now Deeney
They should live in the real world & employ a 'proper' managar for their level instead of trying to be woke
Does anyone else think a small part of why Deeney was sacked was because he's a bit ugly ?
Probably because he was a huge part of the first City side to win a league title for over 50 years!
Certainly not the most glamorous but a rich fucker.Does anyone else think a small part of why Deeney was sacked was because he's a bit ugly ?
But more black actors are getting top roles in police dramas and things like Silent Witness............and Doctors .Statistically for whatever reason black people don’t get managerial appointments in proportion to white people
Replace your first sentence with:As this thread shows, diversity appointments in any course of work can be completely divisive which means it cant be good for society as a whole, and before you shout I am not saying TD was. I think at FGR he was player coach and it was a case of right place right time, but like most of those appointments being their at the time doesn't mean you can. TD always came across as a bully on the pitch rather than a hard man type, that never transfers over to being a man manager. Thought he was quite good on Sky saying that in the one time I did see him. To get FGR out the mess they are in they need a solid experienced lower league manager not one in his first job trying to make a name for themselves.
