Sol Campbell (36 Viewers)

[Grendel]

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...

It’s more the fact that big time players tend to think they are too good and try and move up quickly rather than learn management

His career is presently identical to Paul Ince

When he gets the sack he will say it’s because he is black.

Hopefully he stops long enough to take Maycock off our hands and I wonder if he would like an Anglo Dutch midfielder while we are clearing out the rubbish

Why?

 

[ajsccfc]

Crying race card about something that hasn't happened yet undermines the point somewhat.

dont use the "crying about race card" card please

 

[robbiekeane]

Why?

I think what he is saying is because he has blamed everything else on being black so far...

 

[Joy Division]

I seem to recall he alluded to not getting the job offers compared to his white counterparts to coach because of the colour of his skin, which has been proven to be correct (rather than blaming 'everything' on being black). Fair play to him he's doing a good job so far and sticking two fingers up at those racists who don't want him to succeed.

 

[oucho]

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

What made you think those with a differing view to yours are white?

 

[NortonSkyBlue]

What is clear is that he has had a positive effect on Macclesfield so far and deserves to be applauded for his impact.
Over the course of time we will see if he is successful. Black, brown or white.

 

[ajsccfc]

He's got Andy Cole in on the coaching staff too quite recently, if the ability of either translates to their coaching it's a bit of a coup

Can we have him for striker training?

He missed plenty of chances...

Yeah but he is now known as Andrew so I assume he is taking things more seriously!

I've heard rumblings that we're in talks with Ade Akinbiyi to do a guest stint, here come de goals

Most spurs won’t want him to succeed but that isn’t about race it’s that he was a Judas.

Look how Dublin got treated by our fans was that because of his colour or the way he left and where he went.

Spurs fans used to sing songs about Sol Campbell apparently having HIV, and wishing death upon him after he left. Nice bunch eh, at least they are definitely not racist.

Ah sorry I missed this bit. What was the proof?

I can remember being at Ewood Park and our fans singing we hope Jack Walker dies in the 90’s every club has a few fans like that

Or Dion snapping his neck, that one was lovely too

 

[Covstu]

I hope he makes it and proves he can be a capable manager. Just hoping Notts county go down which is looking great

I don’t know why anyone would want Notts to go down. A great old style club with a long history

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

It's more Kevin Nolan than Notts Co I reckon. Personally I'm not bothered either way - if they play badly enough to be relegated they should be, just like any other team. Don't 'hope' they do that and go down though.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Sol has made a decent start to his managerial career so fair play to him. Will remain to be seen if it's a new manager honeymoon or long term success but so far he's showing he's capable of managing. My gut tells me eventually his ego will cause rifts with players, but we shall see.

Yup. Idiots on this forum have an obsession with them

Not as obsessive as your obsession with mentioning that people have an obsession with Notts County though.

Just call it like i see it. And once again i am right

You don't remember that song?

Ah sorry I missed this bit. What was the proof?

Football must face up to an indisputable truth about black managers
Considering that a high proportion of players in english football have been black for quite sometime, there are very few black managers or coaches

Yep, hard a barny with a couple of tools in the West End over that, shite thing to be singing!

Don’t forget about real life jobs too.

Wrong link give me 5 minutes edit: found it

Oooh, don’t mention it though. That’s the race card.

What was that about correlation not proving causation?

I’ve not mentioned the ‘causation’.

And if you want to use a witty reply I used the other day about players going out on the piss in response to a serious issue fill your boots.

Plus that’s your response before I even found the right link! You are on my list.
