[Legion]

Appointed to the FA board of directors.

Link here.

[lovejoy]

Good appointment, I thought they might be one buffoon short.

[pauliewalnuts]

Here is what happens next.

1. About six or seven people will post "How the fucking hell did he get that?" or "Here's hoping it keeps him away from fucking things up at Villa" or that sort of thing.

2. Someone will do the "See, he can't be that bad, he's getting recognised by the FA etc etc etc" thing.

3. Go back to 1. above, repeat sequence.

[ChicagoLion]

He will be in good company with the other corporate bullshiters.

[Richard E]

How the effing hell did he get that?

[Richard E]

See, he can't be that bad, he's getting recognised by the FA, etc, etc, etc.

[Legion]

I hope it gets him away from... Oh...

[dave.woodhall]

Repeat sequence.

You have many contacts
Among the lumberjacks
To get you facts
When someone attacks your imagination
But nobody has any respect
Anyway they already expect you
To just give a check
To tax-deductible charity organizations

You’ve been with the professors
And they’ve all liked your looks
With great lawyers you have
Discussed lepers and crooks
You’ve been through all of
F. Scott Fitzgerald’s books
You’re very well read
It’s well known

Because something is happening here
But you don’t know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Does that mean if Woy has a tewwible time in Bwazil that Fuckerupner gets to help appoint the next Ingerlund Manager?

Come on down the bumbling mumbler.

Yes I like this appointment 3 cheers for the FA

Hip Hip

[Des Little]

Unoriginal maybe, but they'll obviously take any fucker these days. That's my view so be it.

[danlanza]

Can somebody tell me what he has done to get that position ?
Anybody ?
Having his head so far up Lerners arse might have helped.
Or is it because he knows how to bullshit people to the fullest extent, whilst saying " All is well at Villa."?
Crazy, but that is what the FA is, a crazy bunch of arse lickers.

[bertlambshank]

He is very good at networking I will give him that.

[Dave Clark Five]

Decent bloke.

Can somebody tell me what he has done to get that position ?

You don't have to do that much to get a position like this. Two things help. First one is that others are probably too busy concentrating on their day job and second is Premier League management will back the candidate most likely to to be compliant towards their interest.
