FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION AND ENGLAND FOOTBALL TEAM

That this House calls for the Football Association (FA) board to resign now; recognises that England has some brilliant players, but notes that Sven-Göran Eriksson, Steve McClaren and Fabio Capello have all produced nothing but failure; notes that all have been given hugely expensive contracts with little result; further notes that, amazingly, Capello's contract was renewed just a few weeks ago, meaning that the FA will have to shell out even more cash if, as expected, he is sacked; believes that there is no reason for the England football team to fail in this way; therefore concludes that for years England has punched well below its weight, because of the ineffective management of the Football Association; and calls for a footballing revolution at FA HQ, with the fans having much more input into decision-making.
