Rejected petition The FA is not fit for purpose and the Government must intervene to end this continual cycle of crisis and failure for the national sport

More details

The resignation of Fabio Capello is the latest of chronic failures by the Football Association. For decades this organisation has failed to manage and progress the requirements of the nations favourite sport. The time for self regulation and management by the FA is over as they are quite simply not fit for purpose and have proven time and time again they cannot build a future for English Football. The Government must intervene now.
