parliament will debate a motion of no confidence in the governance of the Football Association next week.

The move was announced by the Culture, Media and Sport committee.

[Chakan]

Hahahahahahahaha good luck with that one.

[pyroparty]

The Tories surely love the FA. Both have blood on their hands, rip people off, inept, bent etc.

[Armchair expert]

One set of corrupt c*nts investigating another...

FA is a bunch of old, out of touch white men. A gentleman's club of back-patting gobshites scared of any real change, happy as they soak up millions that could be used for the majority rather than them and their friends.

They really do have more in touch with parliament than you think

Could have said "And then there's the FA!"

Some politicians going to get a lovely donation...

[Daniel Cabbaggio]

FA will come of it

[mattD]

It's all typical posturing from parliament. Both are too like minded in their complacency and corruption to do anything.

Don't FIFA threaten nations with expulsion if governments interfere with the running of football in a country?

That's a good point.  What's the Football Family's (TM) take on this?

[Doc Red]

That's a good point.  What's the Football Family's (TM) take on this?

Normally 30% of the revenues in unmarked bills.

FIFA?

This gang of c*nts is the biggest gang of c*nts out of all them.

He he, spot on that like.

[oojason]

Spot on from Marina Hyde (as usual...)

When it comes to debating FA reform, it’s hard to have confidence in anyone

FA is said to be culturally incapable of reform due to its rather non-diverse personnel. So who better to demand reform than the culture, media and sport committee, made up of 10 middle-aged white men and one woman

Like how Keith Compton, an FA life vice-president, wants more money spent on defence.
Presumably to blow up the countries England increasingly fails to beat on the pitch

And 10 percent non-white and/or women council members, 90 out of 122 members over 60.
Diversity, diversity, what the fuck is diversity?

The FA Council is in its dotage.

Is it time to take it to the vet?

I don't think FIFA are in any position right now to make sure threats, and they're not going to expel their biggest money making nation and risk starting a huge movement against them

[idontknow]

FIFA?

This gang of c*nts is the biggest gang of c*nts out of all them.

They are very proud of this Mission Statement.
It is the letterhead on all their official stationery.
In over 100 languages.
Because when it comes to suitcases, manila envelopes, private trips, inclusivity is everything.
No denomination turned down.

[CraigDS]

Vote of no confidence against them, given the chance to reform themselves.

Utter joke. They've had many many years to reform themselves but they haven't. That's why it's got to this stage.

Sack the lot of the fuckers off and force reform.

[CHOPPER]

When you see those that are on the FA board, it makes you wonder the last time they had a motion with any confidence.

Maybe, just maybe, their motions just now are causing them to shit themselves.
