Ya that's terrible stuff. It's shocking to me that there are people in positions of authority in the western world still with those kinds of attitudes on race, seems like you would need to live in a bubble not to have enough interactions with people of other races to wrench your head out of your ass with how multicultural our societies are.
At least Palace found out before they hired him... Tan got his revenge too - you wonder how much of this goes on in sport with nobody knowing about it where the ex employer isn't out for blood enough to release their text records.
Palace are pretty much screwed now. Sherwood knows he's second choice and wanted to clear out their coaching staff before coming on anyway.
There has been quite a lot more coming out about Pulis too, stating that he asked for a new contract with higher wages and that he had a 25 million pound transfer fund but threw a hissy fit when his targets weren't landed by Moody and Parish who were the negiotiators, that was the final straw and he walked. Somebody will hire him when they get desperate but he looks like a real greaseball in all of this, really screwed them over. At least it resulted in them outing Moody though.
