Waste 8 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 It's hard to analyse this without being labelled xenophobic Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClintonGrey 365 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Only 2 % of the uk's population is black? HardlyBlack Caribbean 1.0%Black African 0.8%Black (others) 0.2%Admittedly from the 2001 census as the 2011 census isn't released for another year. But the most accurate picture we have atm. If you have other figures, I would love to see them, always curious about this kinda thing!That is currently not possible in the UK due to our Employment/Discrimination Law structure and EU regulations.They seem to think they can do it regardless.

mac444 6 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 If they do this, will they introduce a quota for other ethnic minorities? and what about players, will clubs be forced to sign players of ethnic minorities regardless of ability?The idea is ridiculous. The Rooney law in the NFL in the most part has been a failure with assistants being interviewed just because of the colour of their skin with no chance of getting the job. Although in the same instance there has been successes in it. Mike Tomlin ended up Head Coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers thanks to the Rooney Rule, Steelers admitted themselves if it wasn't for the Rooney Rule they wouldn't have even interviewed Tomlin. But I would hazard that he is one of the few exceptions rather than the rule itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernLights 2,526 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 It's a shit idea. You had fucking Jason Roberts trying to argue the case. The only job the guy has had is scoring goals and he's shit at that. He doesn't know his arse from his elbow. Chris Hughton's a good manager and Chris Powell is a good manager. I'm sure Clarke Carlisle would do a decent job, due to the fact that he has a brain. If you get clowns like Jason Roberts expecting jobs purely because they're black, though, then British football has TRULY gone tits up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMac 185 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Heard this cabbage on TS a couple of weeks ago, never heard so much shite. If you're good enough you'll get the job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
