Be interesting how many black players, past or present have gone on to get coaching badges and hold coaching positions because I reckon the intake is low. Viv Anderson was assistant at Middlesbrough in the 90s and did well, Chris Kamara won promotion with Bradford in 96 as manager and consolidated in the First Division.
Chairmen in the modern game look for the instant promotion route and appoint managers who have achieved some form of success, at the end of the day theres 92 league clubs chasing 10 promotion places.
