lots of reasons - As A Spurs fan the way he left the club to join Arsenal was too much to bear. Not just the fact he joined Arsenal but the way utter contempt he treated Spurs.He's also the most arrogant of men who wants to blame any failings on race. He pulls the race card at every opportunity. Racism is a serious issue but in Sol's eyes I'm not allowed to say Sol had a bad game without him (and others) construing it as racial. Sadly that attitude lessens the impact of genuine racism cases and leads to people being blase about the issue.
So he's an arse
I think the two articles Raheem Sterling highlighted in the Daily Mail show racism beautifully.
You see I don't find John Terry a particularly nice human being - I feel the same about Ashley Cole. Am I only allowed to express that view on Terry without being accused of racism?
That's the problem. whenever something didn't go Sol's way (like getting a job in management) he blamed it on racism. I'm not blind to suspect it hasn't been a case in some boardrooms. But his attitude would put me off if I were thinking of employing him - in much the same way it put me off Steve Evans and Harry Kewell
I've been very lucky in my career to work/meet with lots of footballers/sports stars. The vast majority are absolutely terrific. But every so often you meet an unpleasant one or two (much like in real life) My view on them is always based on the person they are and how they conduct themselves in front of me (hence my views on Terry) To suggest otherwise I'm afraid shows your ignorance of me as a person
