FA council needs 'greater level of diversity'

The Football Association's failure to reform is to be debated at the House of Commons after a motion of 'no confidence' in the governing body.

Current chairman Greg Clarke has said he will quit if his latest plans for reform are not accepted when he presents them to the government in the spring.

Former FA director Adrian Bevington told the Today programme Mr Clarke's threat to resign showed he "must feel confident that he can get these reforms through".
