Mourinho says no need for Rooney Rule

Jose Mourinho says that race is not an issue when it comes to appointing managers in English football. Lord Herman Ouseley, chairman of the anti-racism group Kick It Out, said on Thursday that black players' only hope of getting equal opportunities to become coaches at professional clubs was to go on strike. He also claimed that football's hierarchy "does not have the stomach" to introduce regulations such as the NFL-style Rooney rule - which requires teams to interview at least one black or minority ethnic candidate for a head coach vacancy.
