    I agree - on other forums (not yours) he is even being called racist.

    I know lower leagues may be different but we have Deeney at Watford.

    No - I'm claiming the job to be high profile.

    Curbishley came up yesterday, his situation was complicated by the drawn out court case which meant he couldn't take another job right away and as he said after 18 months or longer away, everyone's forgotten you [not literally obviously].

    luvgonzo says being Welsh has damaged his career on not606

    "Is it because I am Welsh?"

    I didn't get the opportunity to bang on about it on ITV, yes ok Channel 5 were willing to show my plight but who the **** watches Channel 5?

    "I had two mod positions, but never got offered a thid mod position. All the English posters get several mod offers."

    Meanwhile, statistics show that the presence of Lucaaaas! and Luv means that the percentage of Welsh posters is actually in-line with the population.

    It may have been a disadvantage for Matth though, who's never been offered a not606 mod position.

    Yeah, but the Swansea forum's not racist like not606. Apparently they don't mind Welsh mods. Well. not too much. He still lost the position though, didn't he?

    Could also argue that he may have the right contacts and others don't - which goes for anyone regardless of colour. Not necessarily the case but nobody's going to ignore a reference from Arsene Wenger for example.

    I'd ignore a reference from Wenger if it was for his optician <ok>
