“Every time John Barnes loses his job, the chorus swells: do managers who are not white get a raw deal in the English game? To me the answer is straightforward. Because we have no way of knowing, there is no point in asking. And I find the subject an especially irksome waste of time and energy because it does not matter if we have 92 white managers or none. There is nothing better in English football than the disregard for racial origin that has formed over the past quarter of a century, since bananas were thrown at Barnes.” (TimesOnline)
