Curtis Fleming takes QPR coaching role

[West London is Rss]

As soon as I saw this yesterday evening, I'd be lying if I said the first thing that didn't come to my mind was the Rooney Rule and our club.

Whether it's right or wrong me thinking that, I don't know - but I couldn't help it.

[Kevin Mcleod]

Is he black then?

[West London is Rss]

Is he black then?

Yes mate.

Nothing wrong with it, just as long as he got the job on his coaching and credentials - rather than the rooney rule and a shortlist made up of black coaches.

[Southport]

I have no idea if he is any good or not, but have we tried to approach Dunne first? He is someone who I would have confidence in this role

[Brian Wilson]

Are Ollie & Birch black? never realised

Fleming was at Palace when Ollie arrived as he was part of Dougie Freedman's team.

coaching at a team who are 1 point from relegation places in division 2 with worst goals against record. You couldn't make it up. Stinks if true.

No fair enough, i genuinley didnt know. After two black managers on the trot with so few in the game people will think rooney rule while Les is in charge. Its human nature.

If I was the part of the board, I'd make sure I'd pay good money and attract the best we could.

This is one department we should be spending money on.

I don't know nothing about this guy, I'd aim higher though.

Lets go back to Les's comments on the Rooney Rule shall we.

Glaringly obvious that we clearly imply what he talks about for our shortlists on managers and coaches. I believe Chris Powell was interviewed before Ollie got it this time around?
I wonder if Sir Les would class me as racist for discussing this?

Another shambolic appointment

another admission that the Olly appointment was a mistake.

all this appointment does is add to the pressure on Olly himself.

[knocker]

He's putting the future of our club at risk with this nonsense. Enough is enough.

Dougie Freedman

Another disaster on legs. Scared to death that he might have had a sniff here.
