...looks like the FA wanted to be REALLY prompt this year...

They stripped Terry (without benefit of a trail), they then told Fabio to go (I don't for a second think he 'tendered' his resignation - he was told to walk back his comments or get sacked) for backing up his captain because he stupidly believed in the concept of 'innocent until proven guilty'..and now find themselves in total disarray less than six months before the beginning of the second most important football tournament in the world...

I know that 'FA' stands or "Fuck All', but really, what good are they?
