BBC News going with the narrative of no black managers in the PL now....

Hodgson officially in talks.

Poor cunts.

He was useless last time round , a real dinosaur and not very forward looking by Parrish

BBC News going with the narrative of no black managers in the PL now....

It is a mildly surprising stat, given the amount of top notch black players there's been in the PL. Is there a "glass ceiling" in place, that stops them getting a chance to manage professional clubs (there's not many in the EFL either, I think)? That being said, I'm pretty sure that him getting the push this morning wasn't simply an Ali G "is it cos I's black" moment. They've been poor since the resumption after the world cup. Only 1 win in 13 PL games.

I think in terms of numbers of black players to managers, the main point to consider also is how many English - even British - managers are there?
Howe, Moyes, Jones, Cooper and the bloke at Bournmouth. Anymore? And 3 of those could be relegated (or sacked) by the end of the season.
Of course, Kompany will be a PL manager next season.

English: O’Neill, Potter, Dyche, Howe
Scottish: Moyes
Welsh: Cooper
Northern Irish: Rodgers

Hasn’t Hodgson retired?

Jones? The one at Southampton? He got the push a few weeks back. And he was Welsh, anyway. As others have subsequently pointed out, Dyche is on that short list of English managers.

Ha! Nathan Jones, he's been gone too long!

Now, you're really saying something.

Crystal Palace deserve to go down now. Get Hodgson in? What a joke?! He's 75 ffs. Vieira is a good manager. CP would have survived with him at the helm. Now they will be in the dogfight.
