Ishmael Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 It's John Barnes's fault for being so f***ing rubbish at the job. Negative role model. We need more Chris Houghtons.

Do you mean there are less than 3% of the UK Population are black or less than 3% of professional footballers? Even though i don't know a single black person i'd be surprised if there's only 3% of the UK population are black. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Wiki says it's lower than that. 1% Black Caribbean 0.2% Black "other". In 2001 at least. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_groups_in_the_United_Kingdom Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that wouldn't really matter, should it? Shouldn't the demography of football managers more or less reflect the demographic make-up of the footballing population? Aren't some 30% of footballers in the UK black? Thought I had read that somewhere on the board recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 That is a remarkable low percentage. I don't know what gave me the indication that there were more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
