Can you honestly one hundred percent say Les’ chance of influencing the appointment of a black manager would not have entered his thought process? Geuninely, seriously I bet you cant honestly say no to that. Honestly answer rhat before you get all Guardian comments section about it.
Remember when you answer this in March he did an interview with Sky saying that Black managers wont get the chance because of racist chairman.

Also remember that 2 months later he appointed a black mate to the permanent managers position despite this man having the worse home record in the clubs 133 year history. Failing to keep a side up that at the time he took over were above Leicester. He then precided over catastrophe’s like City, Palace and Leicseter away. He also played SWP and Furlong, a player who he this season loaned to Northampton over Isla and Vargas who went on to win Copa America that summer in those games.
The guy was a ****ing catastrophe and that continued this year, with a side good enough to walk the league he again stayed true to form and ****ed things up.
Remember that in the summer even after the **** up of letting him pathetically drag us down when averaging a point a game would have kept us up Warburton and Weir were unattached and available for no up front cost and a low wage having left Brentford. This is the same Warburton who after taking over and sorting out Watford’s academy then took over D ‘o’ F role and Brentford before being appointed to get them promoted from league one and then with a side and small budget tipped for relegation he got them into Play offs and highest league finish for 80 years.
But of course we went with the guy with no experience, worst home record, got us relegated etc who then unsurprisingly was proved to be inexperienced and out of his depth and inevitably sacked despite having best squad in the league. Warburton to compound this in that time has won 12 and lost 1 of his 14 league games in a league Glasgow Rangers couldn’t get out of last year.
If Warburton was black i cant honestly believe he wouldnt have got the job instead.
Now its an open secret Les dosent want Warnock but instead wants JFH who inherited a successful Burtin side from Rowett. He’s pulling up no tree to instead sign the successful Rowett who took over a relegation bound broke Birmingham and now has them on course for playoffs. He also isn’t interested in admitting his mistake and going back in for Warburton.
Instead he’s interviewing a guy who did not exceed at Charlton or Huddersfield before getting sacked at both. Then going for an inexperienced JFH.
Instead of getting all sensitive and Guardian comments section maybe you should both acknowledge the elephant in the room
I would be very much underwhelmed if JFH was offered the job. As I wrote before, Warnock is the right man in the right place, provided he wants the job of course. I don't want to go over old ground but Ramsey's appointment was plain barmy. I would have thought that they would want to go for a safer pair of hands next.
