Manchester United legend Dwight Yorke is convinced the colour of his skin has stalled his progression as a football manager.
Now overseeing an attacking galaxy of stars in the A-League with Macarthur FC, the 50-year-old pointed to initially being overlooked for coaching roles in England not long after hanging up his playing boots.
Yorke was shunned at Aston Villa - where he played in the Premier League for almost a decade - as well as at Sunderland, where he was on the team sheet from 2006 to 2009.
'It's not rocket science,' he said.
