No doubt this will be reported negatively in the mainstream news but this is a sensible decision to think a bit more carefully about what exactly we're signing up to. |  | |  |

Exactly. We could end up being forced to recruit a player and a coach because they are black or Asian, even if they are rubbish. We will have to paint Ings face black and give him balloons to put on his nipples just to keep within the equality targets. |  |

Or it’s rather embarrassing that in a time of change we are the ONLY club who disagree this is required | | | |

'In 2020 Southampton Football Club achieved the Premier League's advanced equality standard at the first time of asking, the ONLY club to have achieved this to date'.
Your constant high level of negativity must render living near you comparable with Winnie the Pooh having to put up with Eeyore.
Naturally you'll no doubt come up with some fantasist argument that this cannot be possible because A A Milne was a far right nazi because there were no Black Bears in the Hundred Acre Wood. | | | |

If you bothered to read the article you’ll see there is a perfectly valid reason for not signing up to this right away and in fact Saints have a great record in this area.
Knee Jerk or what.... |  |

I did read it and yes I agree we have a good record in this area and maybe it is right we didn't sign up, but don't you think it a little odd every other club signed up but we didnt? [Post edited 28 Oct 2020 9:27]

Nope. Those that sign up to anything like a shot are often paying lip service. It’s good to know SFC are taking a serious issue in a considered way. | |

The whole diversity thing being forced is a load of old tosh. You should get a job on merit and qualifications not the colour of your skin. |  | | |

But every other club didn't sign up, yes the 19 Premier League clubs did but what about approximately 50 clubs that also haven't |  |

True Poroit, but you also have to factor in an element of equality of opportunity. | |

The club have dropped a clanger here because whoever is doing the PR at the club should have been aware of this 'only club' situation and put out a media brief to highlight their stance before mud was thrown at SFC. I see tryone mings is suggesting, black players wont sign for us because we're not signed up. What a load of nonsense, hes got a chip on his shoulder because we released him at youth level. | | | |

Or perhaps black players will sign for us because they know we want them to play and not to make up a quota
When will we need a certain amount of gay players ?
Or come to that why stop at skin colour. Hair and eye colour could be included in this bullcrap |  |

Not a truer word spoken that this 'quota' actually discrimnates against people becayse they will be known as the token black / asian person.
I got a job at a football club and it ticked a diversity box, how awful | | | |
| Saints Explain Why They Have Not Signed Up To Diversity Code ! on 17:52 - Oct 28 with 553 views | Saintsforeverj |
No problem. We can drop Ings and Adams to bring in Obafemi and Tella: they are both black. Yoshida can come and be chairman and Guli do Prado can be chief executive. Mary Berry can run the reserve team and Nadiya Hussain can take Ralph's place. Quota achieved and boxes ticked. Although who can be the gay one? [Post edited 28 Oct 2020 17:57]

Hold on. Saints are ahead of the game when it comes to 'diversity' in the team.
When we say diversity, we mean black people. Middle/Far Eastern don't get a look in.
Keeper - White. Im sure we could do better here. Must be a mixed race keeper somewhere that we can sign. Regardless of ability
Defence - KwP, Bed, Vest, Berty - 50/50 of not only black and white but English and European. TICK.
Midfield - JwP, Redmond, Rom, Armstrong/Walcott. Tricky one here. JwP is the skipper. Rom does a unique job AND is from the EU. Redmond is black so untouchable. Sorry Stu, subs bench for your (if racially diverse enough). Theo is in
Strikers - Ings & Adams - TICK
One area to improve on. I feel the first 14 players are just too damn English/British and therefore, too racist. SORT IT! [Post edited 29 Oct 2020 8:37]

You drop Armstrong without a moment’s thought about his red-headed heritage!

You have got to love this country. I one breath we are told how tolerant a country we are and in the next everyone is getting their knickers in a twist over equality. Before you have equality you have to start with a level playing field. We clearly do not have that and that is what some people are trying to achieve. At the point when perhaps you rate of pay doesn’t depend on your sex or your job opportunities depend on your abilities alone, then we have a level playing field. How many Old Etonians have we had as PM’s for example? We still have some way to go. |  | | |

I’d be more then hoppy if there was a black Prime Minister, especially if he or she came from Eton. ðŸ™ðŸ¾
If it was a Tory they’d then have the hat trick (an equivalent of a right foot, left for and header if you will) - the first Jew, the first woman and the first non-white. You have to admit that would be funny.... | |

What if these percentages that are supposed to be achieved don't actually turn up for the interview or those that do aren't actually up to the job. Do we employ purely because of their race, gender, sexuality etc?
The club have done the right thing and not followed the sheep for some good PR and as you say, are reading between the lines as well as what they are being asked to sign up to
Looking from the outside, I think the club have a pretty good record with their diversity values |  | | |

I presume it doesn't take location into the equation as well for instance would Bradford , Birmingham , southampton or Truro City all have the same targets when their populations have different diversities ? |  |

As I think Woody Allen once said, he wasn’t offended by the lack of middle aged male Jews in the top basketball teams... but then he wasn’t offended at the thought of shagging his own step daughter... People, eh?  | |
