Greg Dyke

[JBN]

Rio Ferdinand added for his insight as a player and international captain. And no other reason.

If there were a doubt about the make up and credibility of the commission, then this has rubber stamped it.

Ferdinand is an arse.

 

[staines_bee]

Pathetic choice. He's mixed race

 

[Leonardo]

Apparently Greg wanted Clark Carlisle but the PFA would only offer their chairman rather than named person like Clark. He would have been a good choice.
I feel sorry for Greg as to be effective he needs to get on with the job and not have to have his committee members approved by another FA body.

If a current footballer is in on it, a current club manager will be soon enough...'Arry looking to extend his contact base?

Surely there is more chance of Harry Hill being on it?

Ferdinand, Rio? Oh dear. Les would have been a better choice. Also ex-international, respected coach*
Was half expecting Hope Powell to get a call but she probably would have told Greg to **** Off.

* (which will all be undone if he ever answers Arry's call to join him).

 

[hanworthbee]

didn't they ask Glenn hysens son?

Ferdinand, Rio? Oh dear. Les would have been a better choice.

Well Greg did give me a sizeable cheque once but I can't say we're close.

If you want someone who has some passion for the game, then Ian Wright is the man, if you want a footballer with a few brain cells, then Clark Carlisle is the man.

If you want someone who cannot engage their brain before they open their over lippy gob, have less intelligence than the average tadpole and the memory of a gold fish, then I suppose there is only Rio Ferdinand, the same Rio Ferdinand that threw his toys out the pram when he wasn't selected to play for England and then got a dodgy back but still managed to fly off to the far East for a commentary job.

And was banned for missing 3 drug tests but quick to have a pop at any1 else who makes a mistake

Ian Wright lost it on 606 last night when a caller rang in to say black players should stop moaning!

.............why was Garth Crooks not consulted????????.........

.............why was Garth Crooks not consulted????????.........

If they put Crookes on the committee they'll have covered quite a few minority groups and persecuted groups in one.
Shame he hasn't got ginger hair he'd be calling Bingo

They didn't have a seat at the table big enough for the pie eating tosspot.

Anybody reckon the throat-slitting gesture was a gimmick on his part to back up his previous statement of forgetting about winning the 2014 WC?

 

[Brickie Chap]

Given how deep rooted noncery was at the BBC, how did Greg not know what was going on?

 

[bee1958]

Scudamore outed for dissing ladies football by the Sunday Mirror. He seemed to apologise for being caught rather than the hypocrisy between his public and private utterances.

Dyke was only Chairman from 2000-2004-much later than the going's on-which seem to have been in the 60's and 70's..

Good to see that it was our old boy Greg Dyke who was most forceful in telling Sepp Blatter where to get off:

“I said to him, ‘I regard the comments you made yesterday about allegations in the British media in which you described them as racist as totally unacceptable. The allegations being made are nothing to do with the racism, they are allegations about corruption.”

Attaboy.

and it was good to see the FL chairman's telling Greg where to shove his division 5..

Mark Warburton said on sky today that non-EU players cost a lot less than English players, agreed that say in the next 18 months where agents offer player to us, that he may have to start getting cheaper players in... I can't see Greg idea happening tbh..
