I'm saying neither and must follow his English mother. We've not even started on men vs women or sexuality to bring a whole new level of running swmiming and quadratic equations

Sea of white people not bathing in sea of shame because idiot can't get top job shocker

Find a more worthy example and use the race card when it is truly relevant or you weaken the cause

Interesting piece in The Times sports section today about Campbell
He was recently interviewed for another managerial role. Although the club were impressed with his passion he hadn't done his homework and knew nothing about the club and couldn't name a single player

Have you got the link?

Did he just roll up and say that he was one of the best players in the world so should get the job?

Find a more worthy example ? The lack of black managers is the point in itself. But, free of charge m8, just for you, I’ll throw in the free passes handed out to unqualified white ex-players (even for the England job) while black coaches are told to ‘get their badges’.

So they get their badges. And still don’t even get a fucking interview. Even from clubs that signed up for the Rooney Rule trial.

Started reading the thread got bored after the first “it’s racism “comment .

The best person should get the job end of story , sol Campbell has been ignored for years as let’s be honest he’s a bit of a prick.

Chris houghton on the other hand , is an exceptional Manager who conducts himself brilliantly on and off the pitch , hence he continues to get work at big clubs or good clubs

End of story

Not sure why Campbell’s being labelled as a “bit of a prick” I must have missed something I’ve not heard of him for years.

Sol Campbell what an excellent centre half he was, particularly for Arsenal and England. Always seemed to struggle against Dion though. There is no doubt that certain attitudes prevail in Football, and certain beliefs dictate decisions are made when looking at a person's background and heritage. I believe it was Southampton's academy that were implicated about such stereotypes. IE black players can't be used in the middle of the park to dictate the pace of the game, therefore this had lead to them producing white players to appease other clubs who may buy them.

Oxlade Chamberlain? Yes he's mixed race but his Dad as a black footballer.

Another vacancy being filled by a foreign coach - brit out at Saints, Austrian in.
Any wannabe British manager for the top 2 divisions (regardless of colour) has to understand they are competing against candidates from all over the world.
Brings it to just under 50% in top. 2 divisions now.

I didn't like it when Sol was giving off about how he'd have had more of an England career if he was white. So far as I can see, the England camp have always picked on ability in modern times, as the careers of the likes of Paul Ince, Rio Ferdinand and others has shown. Race was no barrier to any of those guys and I'd extend that out to Sol.

To be fair if I found out Aidy Boothroyd had been on the same course that was supposed to be teaching me how to be a decent coach I'd probably jack it in.

Of course when he does badly (he inevitably will, all managers do) he'll be held up by the racists as the reason black managers don't get jobs...

I think his stock will grow massively if he goes into Macclesfield and saves them from relegation.

They are now 1 point from safety. When he went in they were 7 points behind Notts County.

He is currently in the team, so hopefully Sol will now decide to extend the loan.

Well while you’re quite right in that there will be some racist idiots who do that, I for one am not racist at all but will be having a nice little smile if he does shit because of his incredible arrogance. Schadenfreude and all that
