Rayvin 4964 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) I just wonder if it feels like that's the case for us simply because we're white though (If you are - apologies if you aren't, I speak mostly for myself). For instance, just because we believe that racial equality exists, doesn't mean that black people do based on their daily experiences and what they see around them. I recall reading concerns about the low numbers of black managers in the past, and it seems to me that perhaps having very visible black managers is a help to people. Â Also, I find it hard to believe he was hired just for that - no well run business would hire someone that important due to positive discrimination alone. Â EDIT - with that said, I'd certainly get rid of him now. Apparently ditched Blackpool's training today to sell off his son...

Rayvin 4964 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014  there's a report function on here that used to get abused so i've hidden it  I did wonder at that actually.  'Visible black managers'?  You want them to spend 90 mins smiling? Maybe they could do a half time dance and shine your shoes at FT.  Racist.  Ok seriously, are you fucking with me or have I somehow managed to imply something like that in my post? If that's what has come across I think I'll simply never, ever talk about this particular topic again, apparently I can't be trusted with words.  Can't believe I'm a racist, I never saw that coming.

beatty 24 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 That story backs up what my seemingly ITK chap told me a couple of days ago. Old man Cabella is holding out for a substantial fee and that is all that stands in the way of the transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
