Liam Rosenior's Chelsea appointment must be a tipping point not just a landmark moment | Samuel Okafor

Man πŸ€”... thinkin' about this Rosenior fella breakin' that glass ceiling is super inspiring πŸ’ͺ, but at the same time, it's like, what took 'em so long? πŸ˜’ We're still seein' way too many clubs not doin' enough to mix things up. I mean, 3.2% of Premier League board members bein' ethnically diverse? That's just crazy 🀯. And it's not just about numbers, it's about the fact that there are qualified black coaches out there who deserve a shot πŸ”₯.

But for real though, this is somethin' we need to keep pushin' on πŸ’ͺ. We can't just celebrate one person breakin' a barrier without makin' sure that there's a system in place to keep it from happenin' again πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. We need more transparency and accountability, 'specially when it comes to recruitment processes πŸ‘€.

And let's not forget that this is just the tip of the iceberg ❄️. There are so many other barriers to break down in football, like better representation on the pitch, more inclusive marketing campaigns, all that jazz πŸŽ‰. So yeah, Rosenior's appointment is a step in the right direction, but we gotta keep pushin' for more πŸ”₯.
 
πŸ€— I'm so proud to see Liam Rosenior breaking through that glass ceiling! It's amazing how his appointment is making us think about the lack of diversity in football leadership and what can be done to create more opportunities for people from underrepresented groups.

I mean, it's not just about Rosenior himself, but about all the other qualified black coaches who deserve a chance to shine. It's like, why are we still talking about this issue? Can't we do better than that?

Clubs and regulators need to step up their game and take concrete steps to address these systemic issues. Publishing workforce diversity data is a good start, but it needs to go further. We need to see clubs setting targets for diversity and making sure recruitment processes are transparent and inclusive.

It's all about creating a more inclusive and diverse football industry where everyone has a chance to succeed, regardless of their background. And if Rosenior can inspire other clubs to follow Chelsea's lead, I'm confident that we'll start to see real progress! πŸ†
 
I'm loving this moment for football πŸ™Œ! It's about time we saw a black manager at a top-six club, and Liam Rosenior's appointment is a huge step forward πŸ’ͺ. But, let's be real, it's not just about having one black manager - it's about creating a more diverse pipeline of coaches who can break through to the top πŸš€. Clubs need to do better in terms of recruitment processes and transparency πŸ”. We need to see more qualified black coaches getting opportunities to shine, not just because of their skin color, but because they're the best person for the job πŸ’Ό.

I'm also loving the fact that Kick It Out is doing some amazing work to highlight these issues πŸ‘. They're pushing clubs to be more accountable and transparent when it comes to workforce diversity data πŸ“Š. And, I think it's time for the Independent Football Regulator to step up its game 🚫. Let's see more concrete steps taken by clubs to address these systemic issues πŸ’ͺ.

Let's keep the momentum going, Chelsea fans! Let's hope Liam Rosenior can inspire other clubs to follow suit and create a more inclusive football industry πŸŒˆπŸ’•. This is just the beginning of something amazing 😎.
