Much as I dislike twatter in principle I see rent a gob Collymore is on there suggesting some ulterior motive as to why Town didn't give the managers job to old big head Sol. I'm offended at even the veiled suggestion that we would take against Sol for any other reason than he's an arrogant sharp object rather than because of his BAME background.
And whilst I'm on it Stan, Stan the dogging man best known for his recipe for battered swede can keep his opinions to himself cos I for one don't want to know what he thinks.

You just had to look at Sol Campbells Englands selection for the World Cup to see why no one wants to appoint the bloke


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Not the first time he's expressed ill thought out racism related tosh is it. Perhaps he didn't notice that we recently employed mixed race Marcus Bignot. If he wants to allege that Grimsby Town are inherently racist, then he'll need to raise his game and get ready to have his position dismantled.

Half of me thinks that so called celebritiy self publicists like Collymore deliberately post controversial, provocative guff to feed their need for attention whilst their 'stardom' fades.

Sounds to me like he is trying to be the Katie Hopkins of football.

I shudder just typing that name!

His tweets on the matter are really horrific the more I read them. Hundreds have people have challenged him but he just doubles down on it. His arguments are all over the place but ultimately he's accusing the club and the board of racism.

It's disgraceful.

Just think where we would be now if we had appointed him instead of Jolley,

In his post he highlights Gerrard and Lampard getting bigger jobs with less qualifications and to that extent he has a point. I would rather criticise their appointments though than Campbell missing out. He didn't get our job cos he wanted any old job and thought it would be 'easy' with no real idea of the history of our club or what it means to us. Tell me any business this day that would hire you for anything but the lowliest job if you just went in saying it would be easy and you would do any job? Let alone one that is as emotive and important as managing a football club.

Does he even know that we employed Marcus Bignot in 2016? I think we are still in the minority of clubs having appointed a black manager. So how on earth cane he hint at racism?

Fake news.
