What the hell happened to David Dein then. All the names were plastered about and we end up with a person hardly anyone has really heard of

David Bernstein (born c. 1943 in St Helens, Lancashire)[1] is a British business executive who is the former chairman of French Connection and Manchester City F.C. Bernstein oversaw the controversial f.c.u.k. advertisement campaign at French Connection in 1997,[2] and replaced Francis Lee as Manchester City chairman in 1998.[3] His spell as Manchester City chairman saw the team return to the Premiership from Football League Division Two. He departed Manchester City following a boardroom dispute over the transfer of Robbie Fowler and was succeeded as chairman by John Wardle.[4]

Bernstein became chairman of Wembley Stadium in 2008 and sat on the boards of a number of public companies, including outdoor retail chain Blacks Leisure Group and restaurateurs Carluccio.

David Bernstein was appointed chairman of the Football Association on 22nd December 2010.

So, someone else in the pockets of the Premier League chairmen and in no way independent at all. Brilliant. Let's just keep on going backwards.

Wembley stadium has been a great financial success! WHy oh why oh why do they make these appointments??

I guess he will not make any trouble so thats why he was selected - did anyone else want the job?

Dark days for our game at national level!
