Dale manager Anthony ‘Tony’ Norman Collins has made history as the first manager in the game to reach the final from the Fourth Division but he is about to achieve something else, something that cannot be put in a trophy cabinet.
He leads the team out as the first black man to manage Rochdale.
Dig a little more and you’ll find out that he is the first black man to manage at an English major final.
Go through all the archive possible and you’ll learn he’s actually the first black man to manage in the English Football League at all.
The Fourth Division is the ancestor of the modern EFL League Two.

“ We’ve talked before about the mid-century tabloid interest in transexuals, and how several trans burlesque performers achieved widespread fame. Those old tabloid covers serve to contradict people who claim that trans issues are a product of the new millennium, or that “it didn’t happen in their day.” They just didn’t notice. As the links in the above post show, transexual entertainers regularly made headlines in tabloids that sold millions of issues per month. To the list you can now add Gayle Sherman, who you see on this cover of The National Insider published today in 1963.”

I in fact did mention this event in my class last week. I wish it was more well known.

I love that people that the nazis tried to eliminate are still alive.

Good dismissal of a hotly anticipated work of hagiography for a man who deserves no such thing.
