Anyone know who this guy is at the back and what he does? Always there on match day following VK out, always in shorts and a body warmer with a clip board.
I was certain he was on a flight to Belgium with me in the last pre World Cup international break.

Would love to know…!

And the one just outside the circle on the right is Harry Kane.

Notice how the only question about the backroom staff is about the black member of staff.
This message board is intrinsically racist.

I think it’s because that guy has been seen many times on games walking to the dug out. If you attend games, you’ll have probably seen him too.

The reason why he’s being asked about is written as clearly as possible in the OP. If you’d rather assume the OP is lying about the reason to cover up his racism, that’s up to you but it doesn’t make it fact .

Am I missing something here? Are there not light-hearted comments about Harry Kane lookalikes and all backroom staff having beards?
It's comments like this that cause unnecessary arguments on this site.

Perhaps, as your user name suggests, you should make an appointment to see him!

Perhaps the Op knew who the other chaps in the picture were? The bloke has been pointed out to be Vinny's childhood mate. No one mentioned anything about his skin colour.

To suggest that this board is "intrinsically racist" is a poor comment. I certainly am not racist, nor do I discriminate or prejudge anyone, I find your comment out of order and uncalled for.

Perhaps he’s Vinny’s “spare”…………there’d be a book out soon saying despite scoring goals every week in 5 aside on Townley and leaving The Cats with a stunner, he knows he’ll never be manager!!

He’s called Rodyse Munienge. Part of the impressive back room staff.

That’s him. Vincent’s PA/bodyguard/oldest friend.

Anyone who can wear shorts, T-shirt and a gilet for the game at home vs Middlesbrough must be worth their salt as a body guard. I was one Benny and hot away from freezing to death that game!

A full apology from me. I clearly read the op wrongly and I retract all of my comment and will be less judgemental in future.
I am the person that has experienced racism in the stands this year and I overreacted with my comment.

I am sorry you experienced that, completely unacceptable that anyone experiences racism nowadays, sadly we all know it is still about.

We live in more enlightened times . Things we used to say aren’t acceptable anymore we all had to change. Gone too far in stopping some jokes because that’s all they are. But I agree on message boards and at footy games why would you have racist thoughts. There’s so much better things going on !!

I like the way an innocent question by the OP is followed by the racists remarking on and making it an issue about his skin colour.... :?

Only one person remarked on his skin colour and he apologised and accepted he was being oversensitive after facing racial abuse himself on the turf so stop being a knob and making more of it than is necessary

OK, show me where 'the racists are making this an issue of the man's skin colour?
Another clown causing unnecessary arguments on this board.

I just had an innocent question as I wondered who the guy is, as KSR said above I see him every game walking toward where I sit in the Bob Lord and was keen to know who he is.
I used to know/ recognise everyone in the dugout, these days there are still players that I’m trying to out a name too due to all the summer change.

An innocent question and I’m certainly not the type of person to ask a loaded question to try and get a reaction- I have better things to do.

Thanks for the genuine answers.

Thanks for asking the question as we have been pondering it too ... We see him every week and wondered who he was and his role ...

Find it odd that any question like this all of a sudden brings out accusations of racism 🙄 says more about those accusing racism than the original question ... but the apology was genuine and very well put 👍🙂👍
