    John Barnes is claiming that he can't get a job in management cos he is black.
    personally I thought it was cos he is ****.

    Barnes was officially named as manager of Tranmere Rovers on 15 June 2009, with Jason McAteer assisting him.[37] He got off to a disastrous start, with Tranmere only winning three of their first fourteen games. During their time at Tranmere, Barnes and McAteer were allegedly dubbed "Dumb and Dumber" by the Tranmere players. On 9 October 2009, Barnes was sacked by the club six days after a 5–0 defeat at Millwall and a run of just two wins from eleven league games. He has since applied to become the manager of the Rwandan national team with Stephen Garside as his Youth Team Coach.*

    and he wants a job as a manager?

    he's having a giraffe!

    *shamelessly stolen from wikipedia.

    I think he's generally not considered for managerial jobs, because he's a useless moaning ****.

    He's a ****ing disgrace for trying to make out his lack of management offers is down to his skin colour, try the fact that you were absolute bobbins at Celtic and Tranmere you deluded kopite ****wit.

    If this were true and it is because of his skin colour, how come he was successful as a player and so are so many other black players? Like the club think "well we can have black players in our team representing us every week, but manager? Not a chance."

    People shouldn't be given a manager's job because they're black - it should be because they're the best candidate for the job regardless of skin colour.

    Likewise, people shouldn't be denied a managers job because they're black, which is obviously happening.

    How many white managers are qualified to coach in the football league compared to their black counter parts?

    I think it's a lazy accusation to say the absence of black managers is down to inherent racism in the game.

    It's incredibly lazy. The BBC have been banging this drum for months, but one one of their articles ages ago it mentioned how many black people there are in the UK with coaching badges and it was something like 9.

    How many white people were in the 100m final at London 2012?

    None because they weren't good enough simple as that.

    Football is about winning games , if he had done more of that as a manager he would have a job , he didn't , so he hasn't

    Some orientals get upset at the way we use the term 'Asian' and some of what were described as Eskimo don't like the generic term of Inuit.

    Leaves you tiptoeing through the pc mess that it's creators acknowledge they got wrong.
