Just trying to challenge a few people’s views and make them realise that those comments are outdated and unacceptable. If I don’t call them out those views will proliferate and been seen as the norm by the younger generation and then we will get no- where . sometimes a line has to be drawn, if someone says something racist or sexist it’s up to us to say no , think again , just because it’s funny does not mean it’s right.

Nobody on this thread has been racist or outdated in what has been said. The post that started all this off was one that stated 'due to issues Oldham has had as a town, a black manager should be employed' If there was a racist post at all on this thread, I'd wager that was the one closest. No manager should be picked on race, colour or gender. The best person for the job will do, even if the person is blue with yellow spots. Let's hope we get it right and make the correct choice whoever it may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands on Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 SO we collectively have no idea what is going on. My theory is that Wellens was kept on because at the time AL couldn't stump up the compensation but an opportunity arose to allow AL to sack without compensation and he took it. However timing was not good as no replacement sought or in view. Unless we know that Clarke was asked about the job might AL have been negotiating his departure or considering a coaching role. Scholes is clever enough to dodge this bullet but could have been asked to recommend somebody. As far as I know Paul Terry is still on the books unless he was on a time limited contract but I suspect that after last season he is not answering his mobile on whatever holiday he is now on. Going forward I would not be surprised if AL hires a coach and picks the team himself - I don't think he is short on self belief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 For, I think, the first time ever I'm struggling to muster a fuck about who the new manager will be. Seeing evidence, whatever that means, that AL's going to run us well and isn't going to be an absolute nightmare feels like the be all and end all at the moment..
