What the petition asks

the FA have a history of appointing 'yes men' who the public have absolutely no interest in and are in no way up to the standard required to complete the job at hand, this petition is to make a democracy out of the process and therefore make sure the correct candidate is selected.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
