Vespa Red Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 As an adult safeguarding practitioner, I fail to understand how a relationship between a (supposedly) capacitous young woman and man can be an issue. Unless she was underage in which case it would have been an issue for the Police. However, in this day and age, bosses and staff having relationships is a rocky road.

AppyDAZE Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Whether he deserves it or not, the FA is one big, massive balls-up from start to finish. I wonder if the 80 grand is spent yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not want to speculate but the only way safeguarding could become relevant is if the person involved was underage or deemed vulnerable. At the same time, the FA have stated no law has been broken and he has not been deemed a safeguarding risk. I suspect that, rightly or wrongly, the full report will leak out sooner or later so we shall see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps. Or perhaps it is one of these situations where there are a number of situations which are not significant in themselves but make for an uncomfortable jigsaw...

HitchinRed Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 According to the BBC. "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 that last week it was made aware of the full details of safeguarding allegations against Sampson when he was Bristol Academy boss in 2014." It looks like we may get dragged into this - what did we know and what did we do about it. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41326806 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted September 20, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 It's all smoke and mirrors at the moment, they know it'll come out in the end, why not just put the allegations, that obviously weren't serious enough to remove him from our academy or bar him from getting the England job, out in the open.

Red Necromancer Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Guessing he may have been having some kind of relationships with players/staff while at Bristol Academy and the FA have now deemed this inappropriate behaviour for an England Manger?

( This confirmed now by Bristol Academy who said they do-operated fully with the FA Enquiry at the time) Sounds like the FA have gone back 2/3 years and 're judged' his behaviour and although not deemed to be a Safeguarding risk have used whatever his 'behaviour' at that time was , to now sack him, 2/3 years later Doesnt look good does it ...... Always felt that there was something about him that made me feel uncomfortable ,but the FA or anyone he else can't keep digging up stuff that's been dealt with at the time to suit their new agenda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
