Changing The Narrative Around African Managers

In this episode we discuss the narrative around Black and African managers as we analyse whether the barrier of entry for the likes of Patrick Vieira, Kolo Toure, Paul Ince, Chris Hughton and Pitso Mosimane are unrealistic at the world's top clubs. We also celebrate African excellence in the form of Vincent Kompany who's recently led Burnley to gain promotion to the Premier League and Morocco's man with the Midas touch Walid Regragui. Finally we head to the mailbag and answer your questions around the African Super League, which will be an important space for managers from the continent to excel.Panel: Zayn Nabbi (host), Francis Nkwain (BOA Awards / African Football Expert) and Courtney Freese (Former PSL Winner)#CPFC #OneClubForAll #burnley #premierleague #africaFollow us on IG: @otw_podcastFollow us on Twitter: @otw_podcastLike us on Facebook: On The Whistle Podcast  Show Notes02:15 - Roy Hodgson reaping the benefits of Patrick Vieira's work at Crystal Palace? 09:00 - African and Black managers like Vieira, Chris Hughton and Kolo Toure are held to an unfairly high standard 16:00 - African managers like Pitso Mosimane need to be in the conversation for top jobs 21:00 - Big hitting Black and African managers still get overlooked for the likes of "failures" like Frank Lampard 24:00 - Changing the football ecosystem to provide opportunities for African managers 32:00 - Morocco's Walid Regragui has illustrated African excellence36:30 - Questions from the mailbag about the African Super League Duration: 38:45 Hosted on Acast.
