Colour doesn't stop players getting picked for football teams either. As for Roseinor, I didn't even realise he was black until some idiot reporter highlighted that he was Hull City's first black manager.
Good point Trumpton .
Until today I wouldn't even have thought of him as d black manager being brought up on this thread

Reactions: Gone For A Walk
Why do you do this? Did you help draw up his contract? Thing is only a few people will know the exact details and the media are just guessing and making up headlines. A quick search shows even the major news sources (sky, bbc, cnn) can't agree on what his pay off will be.

In other Chelsea news, they are in the FA cup semi final this weekend here's how they got there.
However, he did secure FA Cup wins over Championship sides Charlton, Hull City and Wrexham (on penalties) before a 7-0 drubbing of League One bottom club Port Vale set up Sunday's FA Cup semi-final with Leeds.
Here you go.
 
You think he swallowed a management speak book? Or you saw kilbane and Davis say that? The irony of people mocking phrases he uses when copying their own.
Nope, I think he swallowed a management speak book. I have zero idea what kilbane or whoever “Davis” is has said about him. You’re a strange little fella Syd.

It's amazing how similar your wording to theirs is if you haven't seen their quotes. Came up with it all on your own. The ad hominem is remarkably defensive if that's the case.

So I just googled what they both said. Kilbane’s was nothing like what I said. And Sean Davis said he’d swallowed a dictionary of long words. It’s hardly a stretch to imagine I came up with my own description that was similar to one of these. I work with a lot of middle management types who we always describe as swallowing a book of management speak. That’s because the way they present themselves is like it’s straight from some cringeworthy self help/managment/win friends and influence people style book.
I think you’ll find it was you who randomly went in on me, so if you found my reply contained any form of ad hominem (who’s swallowed a dictionary now?) it was in relation to your snarky little remark syd. There’s a reason 90% of this board think you’re a twat mate.
 
Well I am going to say it. If we dont make the play-offs and Acun bins Sergei I for one would welcome Liam back. Should never have been sacked in the first place.

Ain't gonna happen.

Not that I trust Acun not to bin Serg if we finish 7th or 8th, but there's absolutely no way he's effectively admitting he was wrong by bringing Liam back.
 
I think there was a period where every media outlet went full on crazy trying to tick boxes. Even minority groups found it patronising.

Its settled down now to a point, probably only the BBC and woke companies continue to practice it.

The fact is, and its really simple, if youre good enough you should get the job. Perfect example of this are Laura Woods and Gabby Logan. Theyre the best Anchors since Des Lynam. A threesome I'd have bloody loved to see together as well.

Mucky bastard.
 
Kilbane saying he swallowed a psychologists manual and Davis saying he swallowed a dictionary of long words are both incredibly different to what you said, you're absolutely right mate.

I think you'll find when I "went in" on you I just pointed out the irony of people criticising the way he speaks. If you find being called ironic "going in" on you I think you need a thicker skin. Of course, calling me a twat etc is just play on.
 
Did you read the post I quoted? That was your reply to Jim which you claimed you had no memory of making.

I don't deny posting that text twice saved me typing it out again. It applied to both posts I used it to reply to, yours and Jim the Tiger (?) 3 million or 24 million the answer is the same, you don't know so stop making out like you do.

The problem is the post replied to saying I had used it twice was the laughing emoji one.

Lol OK. It was very clear what I was referring to, Kalman had no issue understanding.
 
I have never once seen a black agency worker being treated any differently than people with my skin colour.

That's my experience and I stand by it.
I'm sure all your black colleagues will be thrilled to hear your take on whether or not they've experienced any racism at work. We should always listen to people's lived experience, but even more to people telling other people what they've experienced.
