This is one of the few places were Black People have advance in a modern world of the evil of Racism that hold back people in every works of life in Britain. But with our modern footballing world of today were millions of pounds are a common factor in every day football life and even though many many campaign have been put into effect by the Bosses and Governing bodies of Football, but this has had no effect on the racist that sadly live in this society. Its not only the players, its the fact that you see very little Black Faces as Managers, Coaches, Administrator, Chair person, Board Members or Directors, even Lines men or women and all the support work within the context of football is all pure white faces, a sea of white faces.
Yet on a Saturday afternoon, you will see hundreds of Black faces running up and down football pitches from Lands end to John O- Groat sweating for fans and there team and bringing so much enjoyment and happiness to the people of this country, yet they are not employable at the end of there career, unlike there white counterparts who will advance up the footballing wider world. There is a bigger picture here, a picture thats not an oil painting, its a shameful painting of a country that has let down Black Kids born in this county but have been treated like second class citizens. May be one day this country will come to terms with the fact that bringing in Black Foreign Ex-Footballer to act as pundits on TV Football Programmes when there hundreds of very good ex-black football player or retired football players they can call on at any time.
