Good Manager, I'm glad he's been given another chance.

The FA have had an enquiry out about the text's etc..from his Cardiff days for 3 months & have done sweet FA about it thus far, fucking useless bunch of clowns. However, listening to Dave Whelan on Talksport this morning I'm now of the opinion that he's admited (Malky) that he's made a mistake & has appologised to all concerned & I think he deserves this chance. I like Wigan as a football club & think personally that Malky will do a good job there (so would Chris Hughton for that matter)

He has apologised but he hasn't served any form of punishment for the offence. FA dropped the ball. They should have investigated, banned for a determined period as with other racial offences and then when he is reappointed somewhere there is no issue as he has "done his time".
FA needs clearing out IMO, rotten to the core.

It's fact that he has admitted, he admitted to it way back in August and apologised then too.

We all know that many people - not just football managers - may have prejudicial and un-PC views although they may be more careful not to have them made public.
He's certainly not unique so let's see if he can now behave himself better back in the managerial spotlight, no matter what his personal viewpoints may be. He'll never quite live it down though will he, no matter how much he apologises.

I expect Mackay would be happy to give you an answer.

I personally think that will change, there are plenty of black guys coaching & doing their badges etc..it may take a while for the numbers to reflect society but I do think that it will change (if it doesn't it's criminal)

I hear he's thinking about becoming a cross-dresser.
He now has a Wigan address.

I'd love to hear more about the scores of budding managers lined up to take the jobs. Chris Hughton is the only available black manager that has a half decent record - should clubs employ managers like Paul Ince because he's black, or because he's a good manager. It shouldn't matter about the colour of his skin, he's been a terrible manager.
People get jobs on merit - it's similar to the recent topic of there being less than 500 Muslim soldiers in the 80,000 strong British Army. Crying "racists" is completely flawed logic, as its often just a case of "not enough people interested".

Yup, but he's still available, technically. I meant managers who merit being on a shortlist.

Sorry I read that in the literal sense in that he was out of work and looking for work.
The rest of your point I agree with. Managers should be hired based on who the Owner/Chairman/CEO believes will do the best job. They then keep or lose that job normally based on the results they get.
