HR Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Is it possible some of the issues behind the lack of funds could reflect a lack of confidence in Lennon? He is quoted today 'Can I change it? No. I have to work with these players' Some of the strongest words that can come out of a managers mouth. Quote
Dr Faustus Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 And Colin Wanker is in there. Ffs, I just googled that! Quote

Blondi Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Summat seems to be brewing at the club and it sure isn't a cup of tea. No doubt it will come to a head if we lose on Saturday. Just a hunch I have. Quote

Going to end in tears Quote
SnoopJohnnyJohn Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Chris Ramsey gone... Kick It Out will have a field day; two black managers (score 4) gone yet a ginger (concedes said 4) still in charge! Feel sorry the lad to some extent... Sure enough... http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/34730265 Quote
jules_darby Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) Sure enough... http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/34730265 That article is summed up by the fact that the QPR sacking was explained by their director of Football - black bloke Les Ferdinand. So he's racist against blacks is he? Which hilariously isn't referenced Townsend is a nob Edited November 5, 2015 by jules_darby Quote

BOWTUN BAKED Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 In the 2011 consensus 3% of the UK population came from the ethnicity classification of 'black British' So if you want to use that stat, 6 black managers out of 92 is over represented, even down to 4 now is over representation. I hate the race card played in football, you can either do the job or you can't. The colour of your skin has Fook all to do with it, ........ John Barnes is to blame, booo! Quote
gonzo Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 Sure enough... http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/34730265 Maybe he needs to concentrate on stopping his son attacking honky fitness coaches. Quote
SnoopJohnnyJohn Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Townsend is doing more damage with his comments then the sacking will do This is the problem now, it's bordering on reverse racism worldwide - whereby opportunities are only given to people of ethnic/sexuality/gender minorities and where they won't get sacked, simply because doing so would brand the company as bigoted. I hate the new world sometimes. Quote

That Townsend comes across as an attention seeking buffoon with chips pudding peas and gravy on his shoulder Sinclair is bang on. Quote

I hate the new world sometimes. What Sinclair says is so true though - peoples reputations/careers can be damaged irrevocably once racist/sexist etc suggestions get banded about. I don't see how comments like Townsend's help one bit. They will ultimately only scare people into not employing 'BME' coaches in the first place, and give anyone non-white (which is basically what BME means, right?) a handy excuse for being crap - nice one Troy What really grinds my gears with this talk is that it actually reinforces racial differences as opposed to breaking down barriers - as does ticking those stupid race boxes on every fcuking form you see these days.

gonzo Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I reckon this is why Lennon has kept his job. The club are shit scared of unsettling the cult of ginge. Last time we did that they set up a series of events to captitulate our football club. Johnny Evans was forced by gingers to do Holden. Bogdan fouled crouch on purpose. Dougie Freedan wears a wig. Lennon. Quote
Dr Faustus Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 We are a superior race; descended from Vikings, we will never die out. Quote
Plums Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 We couldn't win a race never mind be superior. Although I'm thinking we could bring back the use of drinking horns to fill with honey ale. Sounds better than the piss we're currently served. Quote

That simple looking singer and Sheerhan has to be involved It's got to be a conspiracy that got him popular Prince Harry has also clearly been "placed" in his role by a higher power And as for Neil Kinnock....lets just say this is all his revenge Quote

Horwich Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 You cant sack a manager you have never backed Quote

I can't say too much but have you heard of jade helm? Think 'ginger holocaust' I think we should end this conversation with amidete effect. Quote
snowball Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Fulham's chairman/owner has backed Kit Symons to the hilt, fair enough he's had enough, Ours have never backed Lennon so sacking him wouldn't be fair.Wish we had one of their reserve strikers Quote
Blondi Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Blackburn next on the trigger Shame, he's a decent bloke & manager, he lives just a few hundred yards away from us, I think he's been hard done by tbh. Quote
