Mark Sampson has been sacked as England women's manager following evidence of "inappropriate and unacceptable" behaviour in a previous role.

The Football Association says it has only just been made aware of details of the allegations made against Sampson when he was Bristol Academy boss.

A 2015 FA safeguarding assessment found Sampson did not pose a risk.

Sampson was also cleared this year of wrongdoing following discrimination allegations made by England players.

The 34-year-old Welshman became England head coach in December 2013 after leaving his role as manager of top-flight side Bristol Academy, now renamed Bristol City Women......


Always was something ropey about him.

They were definitely looking for any reason to get rid. About time too.

 

[Azzurri]

He's been accused of about 700 different things, definitely something dodgy about him anyway.

Deffo a Kopite.

Yeah, the way he handled himself in that European Tournament over the summer was embarrassing, like I cringed... a lot.

For a tournament England really should have won come the final 4, they really bottled it, and he was just so gloatfully cocky all the way through! I'm really not surprised, whatsoever, that he's everything he's been accused of.

Will be interesting to see if a divide develops between players in the English setup now.

No idea what he's been found guilty of, but he looks dodgy as

 

[Ring master]

[dublinbluenose]

How many FA investigations does it take to change a light bulb?

 

[Alan Whittle]

Anyone who " looks a bit dodgy" is definitely guilty of whatever.

The FA are run by Abbot & Costello

What has he been found guilty of?

Someone changing their mind about the contents of a report that had already been ok'd.
Also loitering in the way of a media frenzy.
