If it carries on their way, it's largely going to be white people paying to see black people perform. It's going to be like jazz in the 30s. Will that be less racist than now in any way?

It is so sad that these entities have been allowed to hijack our two major sports for their own ends.

Yes, no politics in sport - except that suits whatever the current political campaign is.

Only 2 of the 98 clubs in the big five UEFA leagues have black managers. Patrick Vieira has termed it "disturbing." I call it very low indeed, and I wonder why it is so...

So that's sightly more than 2%. Another 2 and that would be about in line with the population.

Why is no one asking why there are so many Black players? Surely that is a far more disproportionate statistic.

Presumably because they are considered to be the best available options in their positions. The same logic applied to management isn't acceptable.

The clue is in the word UEFA, European, white people, not really hard to understand why.

There are reasons why so many Black players are playing in our leagues, a lot of which is due to the scouting process at school age and the price of players from certain countries.

Selecting managers and coaches is based on their perceived abilities and likelihood of winning games.

We now have many people employed in this country who were selected purely to tick a box and there are many examples, some of which I am personally aware of, who could not do the job. Top football clubs cannot afford to do that with manages.

Always entertaining to read the ‘opinions’ of a bunch of middle aged racists and I’m so not surprised to see the usual suspects all over this. Thanks guys, you never disappoint.
