maqroll Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 The last person you'd want for your EDI officer, you'd think, but she's keeping the position! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 (edited) What exactly is meant by "Historic" in this context? unless we know the full facts, its hard to make a meaningful comment. Edited December 30, 2022 by TRO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweets made from 2012-17, hired by Villa in 2019. How did the club not vet her social media? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 Anti-Islam tweets. Not a good look for your local Muslim outreach efforts, which by virtue of the position itself, is clearly something the club is at least paying lip service to. But by retaining her, perhaps it is manifestly just lip service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Davkaus Posted December 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2022 Presumably nothing *too* bad if the club isn't sacking her. I think it's quite poor journalism to simply state they've seen the tweets and they "could be construed as islamophobic". When did Journalists decide their role is to obfuscate the facts and tell us how to feel about something they won't publish? 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, following on from Tro's comments, unless we know the full facts it's still impossible to comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

limpid Posted December 30, 2022 Administrator Share Posted December 30, 2022 Under what authority are the FA even allowed to comment publicly on the conduct of an employee at a privately owned business? Particularly when this occurred before they were appointed to their current role. Massive overreach. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some lady who made some tweets that nobody knows exactly or in any way what she said who should have been sacked. Down with this sort of thing. Careful now.
