Besides the "is positive discrimination good or not" question, the fact is those clubs voluntarily accepted and signed those diversity targets and failed to honoured them and that in itself is a problem.

I read that they signed it in 2020, and the peaked atmosphere about racism at the time maybe made them a bit overconfident to achieve those goals in the long term.

Anyway, it is strange from an association like English football who looks so diverse on TV to failed those targets they consciously decided to meet when it's about people behind the curtains who make the club's alive outside the pitch.
