Ex-England Women manager Mark Sampson charged for 'not wanting to sign a Nigerian footballer because he's 'black'
Former England Women manager and Stevenage caretaker, Mark Sampson has been charged with an aggravated breach of FA rules over an alleged racially discriminatory comment. Back in September, the FA opened an investigation after receiving a complaint about a comment made during a conversation about possible transfer targets. It was claimed that when the name of a centre-half was mentioned as a possible signing, Sampson allegedly responded that the club should not recruit him because he was Nigerian. The alleged incident is understood to have occurred on transfer deadline day on 2 September during a discussion amongst Stevenage's coaching staff about potential transfer targets. But Sampson denied the allegations saying: 'The allegation is untrue and there are four independent witnesses who can confirm that's the case.' In a statement by FA today, the football body said: 'It is alleged that a comment made by the Stevenage FC caretaker manager breached FA Rule E3(1) as it was improper and/or abusive and/or insulting. 'It is further alleged that the comment also constitutes an ‘aggravated breach’, which is defined in FA Rule E3(2), as it referenced ethnic origin and/or colour and/or race and/or nationality. 'He has until 6 December 2019 to provide a response to the charge.' The accusation wasn't his first. In 2017, Eniola Aluko, who is the elder sister of Nigeria striker Sone Aluko, accused him of subjecting herself and her Nigerian family to a ‘racist’ jibe about the ebola virus. Eni claimed Sampson told her to ensure her Nigerian relatives did not bring the Ebola virus to London ahead of England's friendly against Germany at Wembley in 2014. In 2018, he was sacked by the FA after they found 'clear evidence of inappropriate relationships the Welshman had with female players while he was the manager of Bristol Academy.

Mark Sampson led England to the semifinals of the World Cup and European Championship. The Football Association (FA) has admitted that former England women's manager Mark Sampson made "discriminatory remarks" to two England players, and offered an official apology. Sampson was sacked last month for historical safeguarding issues relating to a previous job at Bristol Academy, but the governing body apologised on Wednesday to Chelsea striker Eni Aluko and Drew Spence, who is without a club, before key executives were due to face questioning in the UK Parliament. Sampson, who has always... #MarkSampson #EniAluko #DrewSpence

England and Arsenal defender Alex Scott has vowed to remain a “pioneer” after announcing her retirement from international football. The 32-year-old right-back made 140 appearances for her country, winning silver in the 2009 UEFA Women’s Euros and bronze at the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup. “Today is the end of a chapter as I turn the lights out on my England career,” Scott said in a video posted on her Twitter account. “This decision has not come lightly, but sometimes the right choice is the one that involves some sacrifice. “My dream as a little girl playing in that football cage in the East End was to one day pull on the Three Lions shirt and represent my country. I am so proud and humbled that I managed to do just that. “I know it’s not about turning my back and walking away, we should always be the conveyors of courage in what we do and I always knew that part of my role was to reach back and help someone else. I will continue to help grow the game and be a pioneer.” England head coach Mark Sampson said: “Alex has established herself as one of the greatest players to ever wear the England shirt, a jersey she graced on 140 occasions. “Alex has given women’s football fans all over the world so many great memories with her performances for England. Her talent and work ethic are the qualities anyone who has had the pleasure to watch her play will remember.” Scott will continue to play for Arsenal, who kick off their FA WSL 1 campaign on September 24, as she pursues a career in broadcast media. . . #alexscott #arsenal #arsenalladies #FAWSL #MarkSampson

Mark Sampson has said he did nothing wrong with regard to striker Eni Aluko. England women's manager Mark Sampson has been sacked over "inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour" relating to his time in charge at Bristol Academy. Sampson, 34, who led England to a 6-0 win over Russia in a World Cup qualifier on Tuesday, has been the subject of allegations of racism, harassment and bullying. But the decision to remove Sampson from the post is not in connection to that, and the Football Association said it "stands by the findings of the independent barrister Katharine Newton's... #EnglandWomen #UnacceptableBehaviour #MarkSampson
