Proceeding contribution from Paul Farrelly (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 February 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Football Governance.


Football Governance

I apologise that I cannot stay for the whole debate because of constituency engagements. Does the Chairman of the Select Committee agree that the centrepiece of the report is the recommendation that the Football Association reassert its role as the sport's ultimate governing body—in particular, through a licensing system, which he has just mentioned, and a modern, effective form of governance that would not allow, for example, the FA to be bounced into a naive renegotiation of the England manager's contract as it was?
