Persatuan Bolasepak England menamatkan kontrak pengurus Kebangsaan Wanita, Mark Sampson.
Beliau telah dipecat daripada jawatan Pengurus Kebangsaan Wanita England serta merta ekoran tuduhan tingkah laku yang tidak sesuai (allegations of inappropriate conduct).
The governing body’s chief executive, Martin Glenn, said the decision to terminate Sampson’s contract was obvious after he became aware of the “full detail” of inappropriate relationships the Welshman had with female players while he was manager of Bristol Academy. - The Guardian.
Mark Sampson yang mula mengendali pasukan Wanita England pada Disember 2013, sebelum itu mengendalikan skuad Akademi Bristol.
Beliau buka sahaja dikaitkan dengan skandal salah laku dengan skuad Wanita Brostol malahan juga dengan beberapa pemain Kebangsaan England (wanita).

Eni Aluko,30 tahun merupakan bekas pemain Kebangsaan England sebelum ini pernah mendakwa bahawa pengurus tersebut mengamalkan sikap perkauman, gangguan serta buli yang akhirnya menyebabkan pengurus tersebut disiasat.
Namun pemecatan Sampson ini dikatakan tidak mempunyai kaitan dengan laporan yang dibuat oleh bekas pemain Kebangsaan England tersebut.
Namun dipercayai tuduhan dan pemecatan Sampson lebih kearah salah laku beliau ketika mengendali skuad Wanita Bristol dimana terdapat laporan yang mengatakan lebih daripada seorang pemain telah membuat aduan terhadap Sampson.
The allegations were made by more than one player and are said by the FA chairman, Greg Clarke, to range from the “trivial to the very serious”.
Berikut adalah kenyataan yang dikeluarkan oleh FA England pada laman rasmi The FA.
The Football Association can confirm that Mark Sampson’s contract as England Women’s head coach has been terminated with immediate effect.
Prior to taking charge of the national team in December 2013, Sampson was manager of Bristol Academy.
In 2014, safeguarding allegations were made against him about his time with Bristol Academy. The safeguarding assessment was that he did not pose a risk working in the game.
However, the full report of that investigation was only brought to the attention of the current FA leadership last week and it is our judgement that it revealed clear evidence of inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour by a coach.
It is on this basis that we have acted quickly to agree a termination of Sampson’s contract.
In respect of investigations into specific allegations made by Eniola Aluko in 2016, The FA stands by the findings of the independent barrister Katharine Newton’s investigation.
Sampson has denied all of the accusations put to him and no evidence of wrong-doing was found.
We will continue to support the independent investigation as it reviews the recent evidence presented to it and publish any new findings and recommendations.
