Jason Lee, of the Professional Footballers’ Association, says legal move is the only way to tackle systemic racism

Football clubs should be forced by new legislation to hire more black managers if the structural racism gripping the national game is to be broken, according to one of the sport’s most prominent race equality campaigners.

That's racist

Law for coaches? I'm all for it as long as it forces clubs and basketball teams to hire more white players and sets racial quotas in track sports

Based on qualification or based on skin colour?

No it should not. There must be some way that applications must by law be neutral of race, so that only objective qualities are used to make a decision.

Best person shld get job..end.off

Really? Even if they’re shite? You get the job if you’re good enough end of

Law covers employers discriminating against certain groups,including race. To address the problem FA should start a sponsorship prog, where they pay clubs to take “apprentice” coaches on to allow them to develop! Clubs have too much money invested to risk a unproven coach

So will coaches want to be selected on merit or because of an enforced quota system that’ll inadvertently promote resentment & a view they’re incapable without it? The change needed is to ensure real equal opportunity exists at every level in society, no? GaryLineker IanWright0

That's racist, though Why would the law discriminate by skin color?

The law cannot enforce private hiring based on social labels. That's not how you use the law. At least not in a fundamentally liberal State.

So he proposes a racist law.

No one should be forced to do anything if u want to climb the ladder u work hard for it and have to have the talent for it

Can no one else see the racism in this woke culture? Implies that blacks lack the skills/motivation to rely on hard work + achievement..... Idiots.

So will non blacks be able to sue companies who follow this practice when a black with less experience or qualifications gets the job over them?

What Bullshit..surely should be down to person who interviews best as relevant experience n qualifications etc rather than it being law cos they are black

‘Law should force UK football clubs to hire more black coaches’ Because sometimes we like to use force and discrimination.

And the Guardian was busily engaged piling up it's own funeral pyre

People won’t care if a player is pink with green spots as long as they are successful. Why should it matter what race they are as long as they bring success to a club?

Surely it should be the best person for the job who gets it, regardless of skin colour/ gender/ethnicity/religious beliefs etc.

All respect... this is racism as well, people should be hired cause they're capable, because their skills! No because the color of their skin 🙄

Surely you can't make it law If you haven't got the applicants in the first place Maybe taking people on their skills and experience would be more fitting If I have 7 applications and 2 are woefully inadequate, I'm lot going to hire them based on demographics alive

these requests to have black affirmative action are actually quite racist. i am not a racist, but just wanted to make that point. the next thing we will have is the department of black affairs. what we need is education of white people.

Obviously he's an outright racist who needs to take the chips of his shoulder!

What about other minority groups?

“The law should force private clubs to hire black people.” If it looks like state sanctioned racism and it sounds like state sanctioned racism, expect the Guardian to endorse it.

Don't be bloody ridiculous - are we now having the slogan - White Lives don't matter - only black - perhaps talent should be the overriding factor - nothing to do with colour

Why not just let them have the best people for the job? Black or white? Stop dividing everything by race?

It should not be about color.. It should be about ability to handle club Dynamics. After all managers sign black players if they are worth it.

What a load of shit. Clubs care about winning and that comes from recruiting the best players and staff, they don’t discriminate against black players so why would it be suggested they do for black coaches and managers?

Imagine of there's not enough black coaches for all the clubs. Do they just employ any black person? Or do they get fined, for not be able to employ, someone they're compelled to employ?

Then let the government buy all the clubs from private owners because at the end of the day, everyone has the right to hire who ever he/she want of his/her property, isn't?

Hire the best coach ! It should not matter if it's back or white.

'Law should force employers to employ people not good enough for the job just because they're black'
