31 isn’t old for a keeper at all

English football was primarily created for the white working classes of the uk, a large portion that still attend games.

Also large numbers white people moved slightly outside of London and commute in to games.

Why try and compare players to referees. The players are way more international… also the majority of English people are white, so you’d expect the majority of refs to be as well. It probably could be increased slightly, but it’s not an issue. Very American to always bring race into everything
